Networking Cable EFB Elektronik DCK1001GR.7 RJ-45 Cat6a 7 m Grey

The EFB Elektronik DCK1001GR.7 is a shielded Cat.6A RJ45 patch cable, 7 m long and finished in grey. It supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet with S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and ensure stable high-speed data transmission. Both ends are fitted with RJ-45 connectors; the cable is compatible with standard network ports and can be used for structured cabling in office or data center environments. When used with a compatible detector (Art.-Nr. DC10001 or DC10001USB), light‑emitting diodes in both RJ45 plugs are activated to help trace the cable path.

Advantages

The shielded Cat.6A construction provides reliable performance for 10 Gbps networks while S/FTP shielding minimises crosstalk and external interference. RJ-45 connectors on both ends ensure broad compatibility with networking equipment. The integrated LED illumination feature (requires DC10001 or DC10001USB detector) simplifies cable identification and routing in complex installations. Durable grey jacket offers a neutral appearance suitable for professional environments.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections
• Structured cabling in offices and data centres
• Network patching between switches, patch panels and servers
• Environments where cable tracing with an LED detector is required

Key specifications

• Cable type: Cat.6A, shielded (S/FTP)
• Length: 7 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Colour: Grey
• Compatible detector: Art.-Nr. DC10001 or DC10001USB (for LED activation)

How to use

Connect each RJ-45 plug to the corresponding network ports on your devices, such as switches, patch panels or network interfaces. For cable tracing, attach the compatible detector (DC10001 or DC10001USB) to one end according to the detector instructions; this will activate the LEDs inside both RJ45 plugs so you can follow the illuminated path. Ensure connectors are fully inserted and secured to maintain optimal signal quality.

Recommendations

Route the cable away from heavy electrical equipment and power cables to minimise interference. Avoid tight bends and excessive tension; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius and do not exceed recommended pull forces. Use the detector models specified (DC10001 or DC10001USB) to enable LED tracing.
