Netwerkkabel EFB Elektronik K8708SW.3 RJ-45 Cat6a 3 m zwart

The EFB Elektronik K8708SW.3 RJ-45 Cat6a networking cable is a 3 m black cable designed for high-speed wired connections. Compliant with Cat6a and 10GBase-T cabling technology, it supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s. The cable uses S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and gold-plated contacts on the RJ-45 connectors to improve conductivity and resist corrosion. Its length and flexible jacket make it suitable for desktop, rack, or patch panel connections where reliable 10 Gbps performance is required.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding provides improved protection against crosstalk and external interference, helping to maintain signal integrity at higher frequencies. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts reduce contact resistance and offer better long-term durability compared to standard plated connectors. As a Cat6a cable rated for 10GBase-T, it enables stable high-bandwidth connections for data-intensive applications while the 3 m length balances reach and cable management in typical office or home environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers to switches or routers
• Patch panel and rack interconnects in server rooms
• High-speed LAN connections for workstations and NAS devices
• Streaming and large file transfers over a wired network

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to the network port of your device (PC, switch, router or NAS) and the other RJ-45 connector to the corresponding port on the network equipment. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click to establish a secure link. For optimal performance, avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; maintain gentle curves with a bend radius appropriate for data cables. When routing through racks or cable channels, keep this Cat6a cable separate from high-voltage power lines to minimize interference.

Recommendations

For sustained 10 Gbps performance, use this Cat6a S/FTP cable for short to medium cable runs up to 3 m and pair it with compatible Cat6a or higher-rated patch panels and switches. Inspect connectors periodically and replace the cable if physical damage or degraded connectivity is observed.
