Networking Cable EFB Elektronik 3m RJ-45 Cat6 Red

The EFB Elektronik 3m RJ-45 Cat6 Red networking cable is a 3 metre S/FTP patch lead with RJ-45 connectors designed to meet Cat6 performance. The cable features halogen-free materials and TIA/EIA 568B coding, offering a compact, protected design with boots on both connectors and gold-plated contacts for reliable conductivity. Its 3 m length and red colour make it suitable for organised cable runs in home or office network setups.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable provides improved handling through a compact, protected connector design with boots and high packing density. The halogen-free construction reduces toxic emissions in case of fire, while TIA/EIA 568B coding ensures standardised wiring. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts promote stable signal transmission across 10/100/1000Base-T(X) networks.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, switches and routers within desk-to-cabinet distances
• Structured cabling patches in home and small office networks
• Ethernet connections requiring Cat6 performance up to 1 Gbps
• Colour-coded cable runs for easy identification

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into your network device (PC, switch or router) and the other into the corresponding port on the destination device or patch panel. Ensure connectors click into place and avoid sharp bends near the connector to maintain signal integrity. For best performance, keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources and do not exceed recommended bend radius.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6 cable for in-room connections and short structured cabling runs. For long-distance backbone links or where Cat6a/Cat7 performance is required, select an appropriate higher-category cable. Inspect connectors before installation and replace if the boot or plug is damaged.
