Netwerkkabel EFB Elektronik K8072.5 RJ-45 Cat5e 5 m zwart

The EFB Elektronik K8072.5 RJ-45 Cat5e networking cable is a 5 m F/UTP patch cable designed for wired Ethernet connections. It features RJ-45 connectors on both ends and gold-plated contacts to improve signal transfer. The cable meets Cat5e performance parameters and supports data throughput up to 2500 Mbit/s while the F/UTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference for stable network performance. Its black jacket provides a neutral appearance suitable for office and home installations.

Advantages

The cable's F/UTP construction provides a balance between flexibility and protection against external interference without excessive bulk. Gold-plated contacts offer corrosion resistance and consistent contact quality over time, contributing to reliable signal transmission. With a 5 m length, the cable covers typical distances between devices such as routers, switches and desktop computers while maintaining Cat5e-grade performance. The black outer jacket offers discreet integration into existing cabling runs.

Suitable for

• Ethernet connections between switches, routers and networked devices
• Office and home network patching
• Connecting desktop computers, NAS units and media players to a local network
• Temporary or permanent cabling where moderate length and interference protection are required

Key specifications

• Length: 5 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Shielding: F/UTP (foil shield around pairs with unshielded overall)
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Maximum supported data rate: up to 2500 Mbit/s
• Colour: black

How to use

Identify the network ports on the devices to be connected and ensure both ends of the cable are free from visible damage. Insert one RJ-45 connector into the source device (for example, a router or switch) and the other into the destination device (for example, a PC or NAS) until the latch clicks into place. After connection, verify link status and speed on the devices' network interface indicators or software settings. If necessary, replace the cable with a different length or category to match specific network requirements.

Recommendations

Place the cable away from strong power lines and sources of electromagnetic noise to preserve signal integrity. For installations that require extra protection or outdoor use, select a cable with appropriate environmental ratings. Test network performance after installation to confirm expected throughput and stability.
