EFB Elektronik Cat.6A U/FTP TPE Ultraflex Patch Cable, 0.5m, Grey

In a busy server room, a network technician reaches for a patch cable that won't kink or snag when routing through tight cable managers. The EFB Elektronik Cat.6A U/FTP TPE Ultraflex Patch Cable in grey, 0.5 meters long, is built for exactly that moment. Its ultra-flexible TPE jacket and snagless boot make it easy to handle in dense racks, while the Cat.6A rating ensures reliable 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance.

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.6A (Category 6A)
• Shielding: U/FTP (PiMF) – individually foiled twisted pairs
• Length: 0.5 m
• Colour: Grey
• Jacket material: TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) – halogen-free, LSZH
• Connectors: RJ45 (8P8C) male to RJ45 (8P8C) male, gold-plated (50µ")

• Special features: Ultraflex, snagless boot

Why choose it

The ultra-flexible TPE jacket remains pliable even in cold environments, reducing the risk of cable damage during installation and moves. The snagless boot protects the locking tab from accidental breakage, a common failure point in high-density patching. With Cat.6A performance, you get full support for 10GBASE-T up to 100 meters, making this cable future-proof for demanding network upgrades.

Ideal use cases

• Data centers and server rooms where 10G connectivity is required
• High-density patch panels and switches with limited space
• Workstation connections for high-bandwidth applications like video editing or large file transfers
• Any environment where halogen-free cabling is mandated for safety

Good to know

This cable is halogen-free (LSZH), meaning it emits low smoke and no toxic halogens in case of fire, making it suitable for public buildings and confined spaces. The U/FTP shielding (individually foiled pairs) provides excellent alien crosstalk resistance, essential for 10G performance in bundles. The 0.5 m length is perfect for neat, short connections between adjacent equipment, reducing cable clutter.
