Netwerkkabel EFB Elektronik K8560RT.20 RJ-45 Cat6a 20 m rood

The EFB Elektronik K8560RT.20 is a 20 m Cat6a networking cable designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections. It uses two shielded Hirose TM31 RJ45 plugs and S/FTP construction (4 x 2 x AWG27/7 PiMF) to provide reliable high-speed data transmission up to 10,000 Mbit/s while reducing electromagnetic interference. The cable is TIA/EIA 568B coded and features low-smoke, halogen-free LSZH jacket with flame retardant and smoke/halogen standards compliance.

Advantages

The cable offers S/FTP shielding and individually foil-wrapped pairs for improved signal integrity in electrically noisy environments. Shielded Hirose TM31 RJ45 plugs with mounted strain relief and latch protection ensure secure, durable connections. Compliance with IEC 60332-1 (flame retardant), IEC 60754-2 (halogen-free) and IEC 61034 (low smoke) supports safer installations in confined spaces. The 20 m length and distinctive red color simplify cable identification and routing.

Suitable for

• Data centers and server rooms requiring 10GBase-T connections
• High-performance LAN installations and backbone cabling
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference
• Structured cabling where low-smoke, halogen-free materials are required

How to use

Connect each end of the cable to RJ45 ports on networking equipment such as switches, routers or servers ensuring the connectors are fully seated and the latch engages. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and high-tension points; use the mounted strain relief boot to reduce stress at the connector. For structured cabling, follow the TIA/EIA 568B wiring scheme already applied to the cable.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, keep cable runs within recommended distance limits for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and avoid routing alongside high-voltage power lines. Use cable management accessories to prevent excessive bending and maintain shielding continuity by ensuring metal patch panels and connector housings are properly grounded.
