Netwerkkabel EFB Elektronik K8012.1 RJ-45 Cat5e 1 m rood

The EFB Elektronik K8012.1 is a 1 m Cat5e networking cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, designed for 1 Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000Base-T(X)). The cable uses SF/UTP (S-FTP) construction with foil and braid shielding and follows TIA/EIA 568B coding. It is halogen-free, flame retardant and low-smoke compliant with IEC 60332-1, IEC 60754-2 and IEC 61034 standards. The cable comes in a red jacket and includes mounted strain relief boots without latch protection.

Advantages

The SF/UTP shielding and foil-plus-braid construction reduce electromagnetic interference for more stable data transmission. Cat5e specification and RJ-45 Hirose TM11 shielded plugs (IEC 60603-7-3) ensure compatibility with Gigabit Ethernet devices. Low-smoke, halogen-free materials and flame-retardant rating increase safety in confined or public spaces. The 1 m length and red color make this cable suitable for visible patching and short connections in racks or desktop setups.

Suitable for

• Short-distance Gigabit Ethernet links (1 m)
• Patching between switches, patch panels and network devices
• Desktop and rack installations where color-coding is used
• Environments requiring screened cables to limit interference

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to your network device and the other to a switch, patch panel or router. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the mounted strain relief boots seat against the device; note that there is no latch protection on the boots, so handle the cable to avoid accidental unplugging. Use the 1 m length for short patching runs or color-coded cable management in racks and workstations.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid tight bends and strong mechanical stress on the cable and connectors. Keep the cable away from heavy power lines or sources of strong electromagnetic interference even though it has SF/UTP shielding. Use the red color to identify specific network segments or to simplify maintenance in multi-cable installations.
