Netwerkkabel EFB Elektronik K8703.0,5 RJ-45 Cat5e 0,5 m rood

The EFB Elektronik K8703.0,5 is a 0.5 m networking cable in red, built to Cat5e S/UTP (STP) standards and terminated with gold-plated RJ-45 connectors. It supports data transfer rates up to 2500 Mbit/s and is intended for short patching runs, neat desktop connections and structured cabling links where a compact, shielded Cat5e cable is required. The red jacket helps with visual identification and cable management in multi-cable installations.

Advantages

The shielded Cat5e S/UTP (STP) construction reduces electromagnetic interference and helps maintain signal integrity in environments with potential noise. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors improve contact reliability and corrosion resistance for consistent data transmission. The 0.5 m length minimizes excess cable in racks, patch panels and desktop setups, while the red colour provides quick visual distinction between different network segments.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between switches, routers and patch panels
• Desktop connections for PCs, VoIP phones and networked peripherals
• Environments requiring colour-coded cabling for easier identification
• Shielded installations where reduced EMI is beneficial

Key specifications

• Cable type: Cat5e S/UTP (STP)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Data rate: up to 2500 Mbit/s
• Connector plating: gold-plated contacts
• Colour: red

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (switch, router or network interface) and the other end to the corresponding port on the patch panel, switch or device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain; keep the cable away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference when possible. For permanent or rack installations, use cable management accessories to maintain a tidy layout and prevent accidental disconnection.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat5e S/UTP cable for short-distance connections within racks or between adjacent devices. Verify that both connected devices support the intended data rates and are properly grounded in shielded installations. Avoid excessive bending and pulling force to preserve connector and cable integrity.
