Netwerkkabel EFB Elektronik K8580SW.3 RJ-45 Cat6a 3 m zwart

The EFB Elektronik K8580SW.3 RJ-45 Cat6a 3 m Black networking cable is a shielded copper patch cable designed for high-speed wired connections in home and small office networks. Compliant with Cat6a standards, it supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is constructed with S/FTP (S-STP) shielding to reduce crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors and a three-metre black jacket provide durable contact reliability and flexible installation options.

Advantages

This Cat6a cable offers high bandwidth capacity suitable for Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications while S/FTP shielding improves signal integrity in environments with multiple cables or nearby electronic equipment. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts enhance corrosion resistance and ensure stable performance over repeated insertions. The 3 m length balances reach and reduced signal loss for typical desk-to-switch or switch-to-router connections, and the black outer jacket gives a neutral, unobtrusive appearance.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers, network switches and routers
• High-speed LAN setups requiring 10 Gbit/s performance
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference
• Patch panels and structured cabling within offices or server rooms

How to use

Uncoil the cable and route it along a path free from sharp bends and heat sources. Insert one RJ-45 connector firmly into the network port of your device and the other into the switch, router or wall socket until the latch clicks. Avoid stretching the cable; allow some slack to prevent strain on the connectors. For permanent installations, secure the cable with cable ties or cable management clips without compressing the jacket excessively.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, keep the cable away from power lines and large transformers, and avoid running it in parallel with sources of strong electromagnetic interference. Use the 3 m length for short to medium runs such as desk-to-switch connections; for longer runs within structured cabling, choose longer rated Cat6a cables. Inspect connectors periodically for mechanical wear and replace the cable if the jacket is damaged.
