Netwerkkabel EFB Elektronik K5545SW.1 RJ-45 Cat6a 1 m zwart

The EFB Elektronik K5545SW.1 is a 1 m Cat6a flat patch cord with RJ-45 connectors and U/FTP (STP) shielding, designed to reduce electromagnetic interference and support high-speed data transmission. Its slim flat profile (7.2 mm x 2.2 mm) and very short connector allow for tidy cable runs and flexible installation in confined spaces. The cable is available in multiple colours; this entry describes the black variant.

Advantages

U/FTP (STP) shielding minimizes crosstalk and external interference, improving signal integrity for Gigabit and 10 Gigabit networks. The flat slim construction reduces bend radius issues and fits more easily under carpets or along tight cable channels. Short RJ-45 connectors help save space at patch panels and network ports while maintaining reliable contact.

Suitable for

• Home and small office network connections
• High-speed LAN installations up to Cat6a performance
• Areas with limited space where flat cables are preferable
• Patching between devices, switches and patch panels

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6a
• Shielding: U/FTP (overall foil with individually shielded pairs)
• Length: 1 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Profile: Flat, 7.2 mm x 2.2 mm
• Colour: Black

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network port on your device and the other to a switch, router or patch panel. Route the flat cable along the desired path, keeping it untwisted and avoiding sharp bends to preserve performance. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click to establish a secure connection.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable parallel to strong power lines and maintain proper shielding continuity at termination points. Use the flat profile where space is constrained and choose the appropriate cable length to minimize excess slack.
