Netwerkkabel EFB Elektronik K8056.5 RJ-45 Cat6a 5 m oranje

The EFB Elektronik K8056.5 is a 5 m Cat6A networking cable in orange, engineered for 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections. The cable uses S/FTP construction with PiMF (4 x 2 x AWG27/7) and a 500 MHz rating to ensure high bandwidth and reduced crosstalk. Both ends are fitted with shielded Hirose TM21 RJ45 plugs (STP) meeting IEC 60603-7-5, and the cable is TIA/EIA 568B coded for standard-compliant wiring.

Advantages

The shielded S/FTP design and metal-shielded TM21 RJ45 plugs provide improved protection against electromagnetic interference and support stable 10 Gigabit data transmission. The cable jacket is LSZH (halogen-free) with flame retardant and low-smoke properties certified to IEC 60332-1, IEC 60754-2 and IEC 61034, increasing safety in confined spaces. A mounted strain relief boot with latch protection reduces connector stress and helps maintain reliable physical connections. The product is Class EA link certified by GHMT, confirming performance suitable for demanding network applications.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet backbones and horizontal links
• Data centers, server rooms, and professional network installations
• High-bandwidth applications such as virtualization, storage networks, and media streaming
• Environments requiring halogen-free, low-smoke cabling (public buildings, confined spaces)

How to use

Connect each RJ45 plug to the corresponding network ports on your devices or patch panels, following standard TIA/EIA 568B termination. Ensure the connectors click into place and that the strain relief boot is seated to protect the cable plug. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference; secure with cable management accessories where appropriate.

Recommendations

Use this cable for short to medium-length links up to 5 m within structured cabling runs. For permanent installation in plenum spaces or where extended mechanical protection is required, consider appropriate conduit or cable trays and follow local installation codes.
