Networking cable EFB Elektronik Cat5e RJ-45 0.5 m Grey

The EFB Elektronik Cat5e SF/UTP RJ-45 networking cable, 0.5 m long, provides shielded connections for reliable 1 Gigabit Ethernet data transmission. It uses SF/UTP construction (foil plus braid) with four twisted pairs (AWG26/7) and meets Cat5e 100 MHz performance. Both ends are equipped with shielded Hirose TM11 RJ45 plugs compliant with IEC 60603-7-3 and TIA/EIA 568B wiring.

Advantages

This grey Cat5e cable features SF/UTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and improve signal integrity over short runs. The copper-plated contacts in the shielded Hirose TM11 RJ45 plugs ensure consistent conductivity, while the LSZH (low smoke, halogen-free) jacket and flame-retardant construction meet IEC 60332-1, IEC 60754-2 and IEC 61034 safety standards. A mounted strain relief boot without latch protection reduces stress at the connector.

Suitable for

• Short network interconnections between switches, routers and patch panels
• Desktop or rack-mounted equipment in offices and server rooms
• Environments requiring reduced EMI through shielded cabling

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet ports on your devices, ensuring the shielded plugs make contact with the device chassis if the ports are grounded. Route the 0.5 m cable with minimal bending and avoid sharp kinks; the mounted strain relief boot helps protect the connector. Use this cable for direct patching between nearby networking equipment.

Recommendations

For optimal performance keep cable runs short and avoid running the cable parallel to power lines or sources of strong electromagnetic interference. Verify that connected equipment supports shielded RJ-45 connectors and proper grounding for the shield to be effective.
