Netwerkkabel EFB Elektronik K8708SW.5 RJ-45 Cat6a 5 m zwart

The EFB Elektronik K8708SW.5 is a 5 m Cat6a RJ-45 patch cable designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet. Manufactured in Europe, it uses a Daetwyler CU 7702 flex Cat.7 raw cable and Hirose TM21 connectors to provide S/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ-45 contacts. The cable has a 4 x 2 x AWG26/7 conductor arrangement, a mounted anti-kink grommet and clearly differentiated core colours for easier wiring in the assembled connector.

Advantages

This Cat6a cable supports data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s over 10GBase-T and features S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors improve conductivity and corrosion resistance. The use of high-quality Cu 7702 flex conductors and TM21 connectors ensures reliable signal transmission, while the anti-kink grommet protects the connector strain relief and the colour-coded cores simplify installation and troubleshooting.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks (10GBase-T)
• Server rooms and data centres
• High-speed LAN connections for workstations and switches
• Environments requiring reduced EMI/RFI interference

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (switch, router, or NIC) and the other end to the corresponding port. Ensure both ends are fully inserted until the connector latch clicks. Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid placing it near strong electrical noise sources to maintain optimal 10G performance. For structured cabling, observe standard installation practices and keep cable bundles within recommended bend radius limits.

Recommendations

For best performance, use this Cat6a S/FTP cable for links up to its specified length (5 m) within rack and patch panel environments. Avoid excessive pulling force on the connectors during installation and maintain separation from power cables to minimize interference.
