Netwerkkabel EFB Elektronik Cat5e RJ-45 grijs 5m SF/UTP

The EFB Elektronik Cat5e SF/UTP RJ-45 networking cable is a 5 m grey patch cable designed for 1 Gigabit Ethernet data transmission. It uses SF/UTP construction (foil + braid) with 4 pairs of AWG26/7 conductors and meets TIA/EIA 568B pinout. The cable is halogen-free, flame-retardant and low-smoke compliant with IEC standards, and both ends are fitted with shielded Hirose TM11 RJ45 plugs (IEC 60603-7-3).

Advantages

The SF/UTP shielding and shielded Hirose TM11 RJ45 plugs provide improved protection against electromagnetic interference compared with unshielded cables. The 5 m length accommodates typical home and office layouts, while the LSZH (low smoke, halogen-free) jacket reduces hazardous emissions in case of fire. The cable is terminated to the common TIA/EIA 568B standard for compatibility with network equipment.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and network outlets in home or office LANs
• Wiring desktop computers, printers and IP devices to network ports
• Short to medium-length horizontal and patch connections in structured cabling

How to use

Plug each RJ45 connector into the Ethernet ports of your devices or patch panel, ensuring a firm connection until the shielded boot seats properly. Use the 5 m cable to link switches, routers, PCs, or network outlets as part of a local area network. For shielded systems, ensure the connected equipment or patch panels provide a proper earth/ground connection to maintain shield effectiveness.

Recommendations

Route the cable away from high-voltage power lines and strong electromagnetic sources to preserve signal integrity. Avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force when installing; maintain the manufacturer's recommended bend radius for Cat5e cables. For optimal shielding performance, connect shields to grounded metal ports or grounded patch panels.
