Netwerkkabel EFB Elektronik K8104RT.20 RJ-45 Cat6 20 m rood

The EFB Elektronik K8104RT.20 RJ-45 Cat6 20 m networking cable is a U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair) Ethernet cable designed for reliable wired connections. With Cat6 specification and a length of 20 m, it supports high-speed data transmission up to 5000 Mbit/s and uses gold-plated RJ-45 connectors to maintain consistent contact quality. The red outer jacket provides easy visual identification in patch panels and cable runs.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable delivers a balance of performance and flexibility suitable for home and office networks. U/UTP construction reduces crosstalk within the twisted pairs while keeping the cable lightweight and easy to route. Gold-plated RJ-45 plugs enhance conductivity and corrosion resistance for long-term stable connections. A 20 m length allows placement of networked devices across larger rooms or between equipment racks without additional extension hardware.

Suitable for

• Wiring desktop computers, printers and IP phones to a network switch
• Connecting routers, modems and access points in home or small office setups
• Patch panel to switch connections in server rooms or wiring closets
• Temporary or permanent cabling where color-coded identification is beneficial

Key specifications

• Cable type: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair)
• Category: Cat6
• Length: 20 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Maximum data rate: 5000 Mbit/s
• Connector plating: gold-plated contacts
• Colour: red

How to use

Uncoil the cable carefully to avoid kinks and route it along cable management paths to reduce strain on the connectors. Plug each RJ-45 connector fully into the corresponding Ethernet port until the latch clicks. Ensure both network devices are configured for the desired link speed; the cable supports automatic negotiation according to connected hardware capabilities. Avoid running the cable parallel to high-power electrical lines to reduce potential interference.

Recommendations

For optimal long-term performance, avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force on the cable. Use color-coded cables like this red Cat6 cable to simplify identification in multi-cable installations and label ends where permanent connections are made. For environments with significant electromagnetic interference, consider using shielded cable variants instead of U/UTP.
