Networking Cable EFB Elektronik Cat.6a HiroseTM21 RJ-45 Cat6a 2m Red

The EFB Elektronik Cat.6a HiroseTM21 networking cable is a 2 m red patch cable designed for high-speed Ethernet connections. Built to the Cat6a standard with S/FTP (PIMF) shielding and halogen-free materials, it provides reliable transmission up to 1000 MHz and uses TIA/EIA 568B wiring. Both ends are fitted with RJ-45 connectors compatible with standard network equipment.

Advantages

This Cat.6a cable offers enhanced protection against electromagnetic interference thanks to its S/FTP PIMF shielding and supports higher bandwidths up to 1000 MHz. The halogen-free jacket reduces hazardous emissions in case of fire, and the prewired TIA/EIA 568B coding ensures straightforward installation. The 2 m length and bright red colour make it easy to identify and route in patch panels and racks.

Suitable for

• High-speed Ethernet connections (10/100/1000/10GBase-T)
• Patch panels and switch-to-device links in server rooms and offices
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference
• Cable runs where halogen-free jacket is preferred for safety

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat.6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (PIMF)
• Frequency: up to 1000 MHz
• Length: 2 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 – RJ-45 (Hirose TM21 compatible)
• Wiring: TIA/EIA 568B
• Colour: Red
• Material: Halogen-free jacket

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (switch, router or NIC) and the other end to the corresponding port on the patch panel or target device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted and the clip latches engage. For best performance, avoid tight bends and keep the cable separated from heavy electrical sources. Verify link speed and duplex in your device network settings after connection.

Recommendations

For optimal results in 10GBase-T environments, keep cable runs within recommended lengths and avoid running alongside high-voltage power cables. Use in patch panels or short horizontal connections where Cat.6a performance is required; replace if connector or jacket is damaged.
