Netwerkkabel EFB Elektronik EC020200263 RJ-45 Cat8.1 10 m grijs

The EFB Elektronik EC020200263 RJ-45 Cat8.1 networking cable 10 m in grey is a high-performance Ethernet cable designed for demanding wired networks. Constructed with S/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors, the cable supports data transfer rates up to 40000 Mbit/s and is suitable for installations that require robust signal integrity over a 10 metre run.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding minimises electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, improving stability in dense cable environments. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors reduce corrosion and maintain reliable contact over repeated insertions. The Cat8.1 specification allows for very high bandwidth and low latency on compatible network devices, while the 10 m length offers flexibility for medium-range connections between switches, patch panels and endpoints. The neutral grey jacket provides a discreet appearance for professional and home installations.

Suitable for

• High-speed data links between switches and servers in small server rooms or network racks
• Connecting workstations or network appliances that require multi-gigabit throughput
• Structured cabling runs where S/FTP shielding is needed to reduce interference
• Home offices and media setups requiring stable wired connections for streaming and gaming

Key specifications

• Category: Cat8.1 Ethernet cable
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually shielded pairs)
• Maximum data rate: up to 40000 Mbit/s
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Length: 10 m
• Colour: Grey

How to use

Route the cable between network devices avoiding sharp bends and areas with heavy electromagnetic noise where possible. Insert the RJ-45 connector firmly into the device port until the latch clicks. For permanent installations, secure the cable along trays or channels without compressing the jacket or kinking the cable. Verify link speed and duplex settings on connected equipment and run a network test to confirm expected throughput and stability after installation.

Recommendations

Use the cable in environments where shielding benefits are needed, and keep cable runs within recommended bend radius. For best performance, pair the cable with compatible Cat8-capable switches, routers or NICs and avoid mixing with lower-category patching that could limit achievable throughput.
