Netwerkkabel EFB Elektronik K8580GR.30 RJ-45 Cat6a 30 m grijs

The EFB Elektronik K8580GR.30 RJ-45 Cat6a 30 m Grey is a shielded network cable designed for structured cabling and high-speed Ethernet connections. Built to the Cat6a specification with S/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ-45 plugs, the cable supports data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is intended for reliable transmission in environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is required. Its 30 m length and neutral grey jacket make it suitable for office installations, server rooms and home networks where extended reach and stable performance are needed.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding combines an overall foil shield with individually shielded twisted pairs to minimise crosstalk and external interference, improving signal integrity over longer distances. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors provide stable contact and corrosion resistance for consistent throughput. Compliance with Cat6a performance characteristics ensures support for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and improved bandwidth compared to lower-category cables. The grey outer jacket offers a discreet appearance for mixed cabling environments.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in office and data centre environments
• Structured cabling between patch panels, switches and workstations
• High-bandwidth applications such as video streaming, VoIP and cloud services
• Home networks requiring long runs and reduced interference

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a (augmented Cat6)
• Shielding: S/FTP – overall foil with individually shielded pairs
• Maximum data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Length: 30 m
• Colour: Grey

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network device (switch, router or network card) and the other plug to the destination device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a secure connection. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference to maintain signal quality. For permanent installations, secure the cable with appropriate clips or cable management systems without compressing the jacket.

Recommendations

For optimal performance at 10 Gbit/s, keep individual cable runs within recommended length limits for the installed environment and avoid bundling large numbers of active power cables together with the network cable. Use proper termination and test the link with a network certifier or cable tester when deploying in critical installations.
