Networking Cable EFB Elektronik EC020200083 10m Cat6a S/FTP Green

The EFB Elektronik EC020200083 10m Cat6a S/FTP Green networking cable provides a reliable wired connection for high-speed Ethernet networks. Designed to meet Cat6a specifications with S/FTP shielding and RJ-45 gold-plated connectors, this 10-metre cable supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is suitable for structured cabling between switches, patch panels and endpoint devices. The green jacket makes cable routing and identification easier in multi-cable installations.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding combines an overall foil with individually shielded pairs to reduce crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference, improving signal integrity at higher frequencies. The Cat6a specification allows for stable 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance over typical in-building distances. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors provide corrosion resistance and consistent contact quality, while the 10 m length offers flexibility for desktop or rack-to-desk connections. The green colour aids visual organisation without affecting performance.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links within offices, server rooms and data cabinets
• Patching between switches and patch panels in structured cabling
• Connections between networked devices such as PCs, NAS, switches and routers
• Environments where reduced EMI and clear cable identification are required

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a (augmented Cat6)
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually foiled pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Maximum supported data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Length: 10 m
• Outer jacket colour: green

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to the network port of your switch, router or network interface card and the other connector to the destination device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and keep it away from high-power electrical cables or strong sources of electromagnetic interference to maintain signal quality. For permanent installations, use appropriate cable management such as cable ties or trunking to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

For best performance, use the cable within typical in-building distances for Cat6a (10 m provides ample headroom for 10 Gigabit links). Avoid kinking the cable or exceeding recommended bend radius, and verify network link speed and duplex settings on connected devices after installation. In mixed-colour cable runs, use the green jacket to mark a specific network segment or purpose to simplify maintenance and troubleshooting.
