Networking cable EFB Elektronik EC020200251 RJ-45 Cat8.1 7.5 m Yellow

The EFB Elektronik EC020200251 RJ-45 Cat8.1 networking cable is a 7.5 m yellow Ethernet cable designed for high-performance wired connections. Built to the Cat8.1 standard, it supports very high data transfer rates and is equipped with S/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors to reduce crosstalk and maintain stable signal transmission over its length. The visible yellow jacket helps with easy identification and cable management in dense installations.

Advantages

This Cat8.1 cable provides support for multi-gigabit and data center class applications with reduced electromagnetic interference thanks to S/FTP shielding. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors enhance contact reliability and corrosion resistance, while the 7.5 m length offers flexibility for routing between devices without excessive slack. The bright yellow outer sheath improves visibility and organization in office or home networks.

Suitable for

• High-speed LAN connections between switches, routers and servers
• Home or office setups requiring stable wired internet for streaming and gaming
• Small server rooms and network cabinets where S/FTP shielding reduces interference
• Temporary or permanent installations where cable visibility aids maintenance

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat8.1 performance class
• Maximum data rate: up to 40000 Mbit/s
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with foil-wrapped pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Length: 7.5 m
• Colour: Yellow

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to a network device such as a switch, router or network interface card and the other end to the corresponding device port. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the retaining clip engages. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and keep it clear of strong electromagnetic sources when possible. For optimal performance, use within specified length limits and compatible Cat8 or multi-gig capable equipment.

Recommendations

For best results, pair this Cat8.1 cable with equipment supporting multi-gigabit Ethernet and maintain gentle bend radii to preserve shielding integrity. Store and route the cable away from high-power electrical lines to minimize potential interference.
