Networking Cable EFB Elektronik 3m Cat6a RJ-45 S/FTP Grey

The EFB Elektronik 3m Cat6a RJ-45 S/FTP networking cable provides up to 10 Gbit/s data transfer for wired Ethernet connections. It features shielded S/FTP construction with PiMF pairs and AWG27/7 conductors, illuminated shielded RJ45 plugs compliant with IEC 60603-7, integrated strain relief and latch protection, and a low-smoke halogen-free (LSZH) flame-retardant jacket with a 5.7 mm diameter.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding and pair-in-metal-foil design minimise electromagnetic interference and crosstalk for stable high-speed transmission. Illuminated RJ45 plugs allow easy retracing of the cable run in patch panels and behind equipment. The LSZH jacket meets IEC60332-3, IEC60754-2 and IEC61034 standards for flame retardance, halogen-free composition and low smoke emission. Built-in strain relief and latch protection increase connector durability during repeated plug/unplug cycles.

Suitable for

• 10G Ethernet connections in offices and data rooms
• High-speed connections between switches, routers and servers
• Patch cabling for workstations and wall outlets
• Environments requiring low-smoke, halogen-free cabling

How to use

Connect each RJ45 plug to the corresponding port on your network devices such as switches, routers or network sockets. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch engages. Use the illuminated plugs to trace the cable path in racks or behind equipment. Avoid sharp bends and keep the cable length within the specified 3 m for optimal performance.

Recommendations

For reliable 10G performance, use this Cat6a S/FTP cable for horizontal patching between switches and servers, maintain proper cable routing to minimise bend radius, and avoid running parallel to high-voltage power lines to reduce interference.
