Networking Cable EFB Elektronik Cat5e RJ-45 SF/UTP 20m Grey

Networking Cable EFB Elektronik Cat5e RJ-45 SF/UTP 20m Grey is a 1 Gigabit Ethernet Cat.5e patch cable designed for data transmission up to 100 MHz. The cable is 20 meters long, has grey sheathing and features shielded Hirose TM11 RJ45 plugs on both ends with copper-plated contacts and a mounted strain relief boot without latch protection.

Advantages

The SF/UTP construction (foil and braid shielded) reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, improving signal integrity over longer runs. The cable complies with TIA/EIA 568B wiring and relevant safety standards for flame retardance (IEC 60332-1), halogen-free materials (IEC 60754-2) and low smoke emission (IEC 61034).

Suitable for

• Wired LAN connections for offices and home networks
• Connecting switches, routers and patch panels
• Environments requiring improved shielding against interference
• Longer cable runs within a rack or between networked rooms

How to use

Plug each RJ45 connector into the corresponding network ports on your devices (switch, router, NIC or patch panel) following standard TIA/EIA 568B wiring conventions. Ensure connectors are fully inserted and strain relief boots are positioned to reduce mechanical stress on the termination. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic noise.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the SF/UTP cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines and maintain bend radius greater than four times the cable diameter. Inspect connectors for damage before installation and replace the cable if shielding or conductor integrity is compromised.
