Network cable EFB Elektronik K8048PUI10 Cat6a S/FTP (S‑STP) 10 m RJ‑45 gold-plated contacts, Black/Red

The EFB Elektronik K8048PUI10 is a 10 m Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP) RJ45 patch cable designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks. It combines a high-quality Cat.7 PUR-sheathed core (Draka UC900 SS27 Cat.7) with Hirose TM21 RJ45 connectors plated with gold, and features a durable, oil-resistant PUR outer jacket for industrial and commercial use.

Advantages

This networking cable supports data rates up to 10 000 Mbit/s and meets Cat6a performance for 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications. The S/FTP (S-STP) shielding provides improved protection against electromagnetic interference. The PUR outer sheath offers high abrasion resistance and resistance to mineral and ASTM oils, increasing durability in demanding environments. Gold-plated connector contacts ensure reliable signal transmission and reduced corrosion risk.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections in data centers and server rooms
• Industrial environments where oil resistance and abrasion resistance are required
• High-speed patching between switches, routers and network appliances

Key specifications

• Length: 10 m
• Standard: Cat6a (S/FTP, S-STP)
• Conductor / core: based on Draka UC900 SS27 Cat.7 PUR
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with Hirose TM21
• Connector contacts: Gold-plated
• Data transfer rate: up to 10 000 Mbit/s
• Colour: Black, Red
• Outer sheath: abrasion-resistant PUR, resistant to mineral and ASTM oils

How to use

Connect one RJ45 connector to your switch, router or network device and the other connector to the corresponding port on the remote device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. For optimal performance, avoid tight bends and maintain the specified bend radius for Cat6a cables. Route the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources and secure it with appropriate cable management accessories.

Recommendations

Store and install the cable in environments within the manufacturer's recommended temperature and humidity ranges. For installations in oily or abrasive environments, the PUR-sheathed cable is suitable, but inspect connectors and sheath periodically for wear. Use the cable where Cat6a performance and oil resistance are required; for longer runs beyond 100 m, consider using appropriate switches or fibre solutions.
