Networking Cable EFB Elektronik Cat.5e RJ-45 SF/UTP 7.5m Blue

The EFB Elektronik Cat.5e SF/UTP networking cable, 7.5 m long, provides wired Ethernet connectivity for 10/100/1000Base-T(X) networks. It has RJ45 plugs on both ends and supports data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s. The SF/UTP construction with foil and braid shielding reduces electromagnetic interference, while the moulded strain relief boots with latch protection increase connector durability. The cable is flame retardant to IEC 60332-1 and uses TIA/EIA 568B pair coding.

Advantages

SF/UTP shielding (foil plus braided screen) improves protection against external interference compared with unshielded cables. The 7.5 m length offers flexibility in device placement without the need for additional extensions. Shielded RJ45 plugs compliant with IEC 60603-7-3 ensure reliable contact and grounded shielding. The cable’s PVC jacket and moulded strain relief boots provide mechanical protection and reduce stress at the connector ends.

Suitable for

• Wired connections between switches, routers and desktop PCs
• Office and home network installations requiring Gigabit Ethernet
• Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is needed

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the Ethernet port of your network device and the other connector into a switch, router or wall outlet. Ensure the plug latch clicks into place to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and pinching; maintain a gentle bend radius to preserve signal integrity. If grounding of shielded connectors is required in your setup, connect the cable to a properly grounded metal patch panel or connector.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines and keep a short separation from sources of strong electromagnetic interference. Use shielded patch panels or shielded outlets when installing multiple SF/UTP cables to maintain effective shielding continuity.
