Netwerkkabel EFB Elektronik K5517.0,25 RJ-45 Cat6 0,25 m bruin

The EFB Elektronik K5517.0,25 RJ-45 Cat6 0.25 m Brown networking cable is a short Cat6 patch cable designed for reliable wired connections in compact setups. With S/FTP shielding and gold-plated contacts, this cable supports high-speed data transfer and stable signal transmission over a short distance. The brown jacket provides a discreet appearance for installations where color coding or subtle aesthetics are desired.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, enhancing signal integrity in environments with multiple cables or electronic equipment. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts improve corrosion resistance and ensure consistent connectivity over repeated insertions. Its compact 0.25 m length minimizes cable clutter and is suitable for connecting devices in close proximity, such as patch panels, switches, or network outlets. The Cat6 standard supports elevated bandwidth and improved performance compared with lower categories.

Suitable for

• Short-distance connections between network devices (switch to switch, switch to patch panel)
• Close-proximity workstation or server rack cabling
• Structured cabling where color-coded cables are used for identification
• Situations requiring shielded cables to reduce interference

Key specifications

• Cable length: 0.25 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Category: Cat6
• Shielding: S/FTP (shielded foil with braided overall shield and individual pair shielding)
• Maximum data rate: up to 5000 Mbit/s
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Colour: brown

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network port of your device and the other plug to the corresponding port on your switch, patch panel or router. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click to secure the connection. Use the short cable length to organize dense cabling areas and avoid excessive bending near the connector to maintain signal quality. If using in a shielded installation, verify that the cable shields are properly terminated at the equipment or patch panel for full effectiveness.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat6 S/FTP cable for short links within racks or between adjacent devices. Avoid running the cable parallel to high-power electrical lines and keep bend radius gentle near connectors. Regularly inspect contacts for debris and ensure connectors are clean before insertion to preserve reliable connections.
