Ethernet patch cable EFB Elektronik K8109GR.5 Cat6a U/UTP, RJ-45 to RJ-45, 5 m, grey

The EFB Elektronik K8109GR.5 is an unshielded Cat6a RJ45 premium patch cable designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks. This 5 m grey U/UTP (UTP) cable features moulded RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts and a slim grommet that eases insertion in confined spaces while maintaining reliable data transmission up to 10,000 Mbit/s.

Advantages

The cable supports Cat6a performance for 10 Gb/s applications and uses gold-plated RJ-45 contacts to improve contact reliability. The slim moulded grommet reduces strain and facilitates plug-in in tight installations. As an unshielded U/UTP cable, it offers a balance of flexibility and performance for typical structured cabling environments.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections in office or data center environments
• Patch connections between switches, patch panels and end devices
• Short runs requiring a 5 m cable length
• Installations where a slim connector profile simplifies routing in dense cabling areas

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to a switch, router or patch panel and the other end to the target network device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks and avoid bending the cable sharply near the connector to prevent damage. Use appropriate cable management to maintain bend radius and prevent mechanical stress.

Recommendations

For best performance, route the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources and avoid running it in parallel with power lines. Use the 5 m length for short interconnects within racks or between adjacent equipment; for longer distances follow structured cabling standards for Cat6a installations.
