Netwerkkabel EFB Elektronik K5528BL.0.5 Blauw 0,5 m Cat8.1 S/FTP

The EFB Elektronik K5528BL.0.5 is a 0.5 m Cat8.1 S/FTP patch cable with RJ45 connectors on both ends, designed for high-speed Ethernet links. It supports data rates up to 40000 Mbit/s and is built for applications requiring high bandwidth and reduced electromagnetic interference. The cable is blue and intended for short-distance, high-frequency network connections.

Advantages

The Cat8.1 construction with S/FTP shielding provides improved protection against crosstalk and external interference while supporting frequencies up to 2000 MHz. With RJ45 terminations it is compatible with standard 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T equipment where a maximum link length of 30 m is acceptable. Its 0.5 m length makes it suitable for patching in racks and connecting adjacent devices with minimal excess cable.

Suitable for

• 25GBASE-T links using RJ45
• 40GBASE-T short-reach connections
• High-density rack patching and adjacent device connections
• Environments requiring S/FTP shielding to reduce interference

How to use

Plug each RJ45 connector into the corresponding network ports on your devices or patch panel. Use the 0.5 m cable for short connections inside racks or between adjacent equipment. Ensure connectors are fully seated to maintain contact integrity. For longer links or different installation requirements, select an appropriate cable length or category that meets distance and performance needs.

Recommendations

Use this Cat8.1 S/FTP 0.5 m cable for short, high-speed RJ45 connections such as 25GBASE-T or 40GBASE-T patching within racks; avoid using it for runs exceeding the recommended 30 m maximum distance for Cat8.1 to ensure specified performance.
