Netwerkkabel EFB Elektronik K8580GR.5 RJ-45 Cat6a 5 m grijs

The EFB Elektronik K8580GR.5 RJ-45 Cat6a 5 m Grey is a 5-metre network cable designed for high-speed wired Ethernet connections. Built to Cat6a standard with S/FTP shielding and fitted with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, the cable supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and provides improved protection against electromagnetic interference. Its grey jacket and standard 5 m length make it suitable for desktop, rack and office installations where reliable gigabit and multi-gigabit performance is required.

Advantages

The cable’s Cat6a construction and S/FTP shielding reduce crosstalk and external interference, improving signal integrity over the 5 m run. Factory-terminated RJ-45 connectors ensure consistent contact and quick plug-and-play installation. The 5-metre length offers flexibility for routing between equipment while the grey outer jacket provides neutral appearance and easy cable management in mixed cabling environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and network interface cards in office or home networks
• High-speed data transfers for NAS devices and desktop workstations
• Server rack patching and horizontal cabling within the 5 m distance
• Streaming and conferencing setups that require stable wired connections

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually shielded pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Maximum data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Length: 5 m
• Colour: Grey

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of your switch, router or computer and the other connector into the corresponding port of the remote device. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference. For rack installations, use cable management accessories to secure and label the cable for easy identification.

Recommendations

For optimal performance maintain bend radius greater than four times the cable diameter, avoid running parallel to high-voltage power lines, and verify link speeds on connected devices after installation. Use the 5 m cable for short to medium-length connections where Cat6a performance and S/FTP shielding are required.
