Networking Cable EFB Elektronik Cat.6a HiroseTM21 RJ-45 Cat6a 5m Grey

The EFB Elektronik Cat.6a HiroseTM21 networking cable, 5 m in length, is a halogen-free Cat6a patch cable designed for high-speed Ethernet connections. It features S/FTP (also described as SF/UTP or S-FTP PIMF) shielding with individually foil-wrapped pairs and an overall braided shield, two molded RJ-45 connectors compatible with TIA/EIA 568B wiring, and compact Hirose TM21 style housings for reliable mating and space-saving installations.

Advantages

This Cat.6a cable supports up to 1000 MHz bandwidth and is suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications, offering improved crosstalk protection thanks to S/FTP PIMF construction. The halogen-free jacket reduces toxic gas emission in case of fire, and the molded RJ-45 connectors provide consistent contact and easy plug-and-play installation. The 5 m length and grey color make it practical for both office and home networking setups.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links and high-bandwidth data transmission
• Patch panels, switches and network devices requiring RJ-45 Cat6a connections
• Office, data centre and professional AV installations where shielded cables are needed

How to use

Connect each RJ-45 connector to the corresponding network ports on your switch, patch panel or device following TIA/EIA 568B wiring. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click to secure a proper contact. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference to preserve shielding effectiveness and maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

For optimal performance in 10GBASE-T and other high-speed applications, use this Cat.6a S/FTP cable with compatible shielded network equipment and maintain recommended bend radius; avoid kinking and excessive tension during installation.
