Networking cable EFB Elektronik EC020200211 RJ-45 Cat7 5 m Blue

The EFB Elektronik EC020200211 RJ-45 Cat7 5 m Blue networking cable is a 5-meter high-performance copper patch cable designed for fast wired connections in homes, offices and data installations. Constructed to Cat7 specifications with S/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors, the cable supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and offers reliable signal integrity over its length. The blue jacket provides easy visual identification within cable bundles and racks.

Advantages

This Cat7 cable features S/FTP shielding that combines an overall foil shield with individually shielded pairs to reduce crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference. Gold-plated RJ-45 plugs improve contact reliability and resist corrosion for stable connections. At 5 meters, the cable balances reach and minimal signal loss for short-to-medium runs while maintaining Cat7 performance characteristics required for high-bandwidth applications.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and network sockets in small offices and home networks
• Patch connections in server rooms and wiring cabinets
• High-bandwidth applications such as Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Category: Cat7 copper twisted pair cable
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually shielded pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Length: 5 m
• Color: Blue
• Maximum supported data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network device (switch, router, modem or network socket) and the other into the corresponding port on your computer, server or other network equipment. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch engages. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference; secure with cable ties or management clips as needed. For permanent installations, verify port settings and test the link speed after connection.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat7 cable for links up to 5 m in length and avoid kinking or compressing the cable. Keep the cable separated from high-voltage power lines and fluorescent fixtures to minimize interference. When deploying multiple runs in racks or conduits, label each end and maintain consistent routing to simplify maintenance and troubleshooting.
