Networking cable EFB Elektronik EC020200265 RJ-45 Cat8.1 20 m Grey

The EFB Elektronik EC020200265 RJ-45 Cat8.1 20 m Grey networking cable is a high-performance Ethernet cable designed for demanding wired network installations. Compliant with the Cat8.1 standard and featuring S/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors, this 20 metre cable supports very high data transfer speeds up to 40000 Mbit/s and is intended for use where low interference and reliable signal transmission are required.

Advantages

This Cat8.1 cable offers S/FTP shielding that protects individual pairs and the overall cable from electromagnetic interference, improving signal integrity in electrically noisy environments. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors provide stable contact resistance and reduced corrosion over time, while the 20 m length gives flexibility for connections between racks, switches and networked devices. The grey jacket provides a neutral appearance suitable for commercial and technical installations.

Suitable for

• High-speed server-to-switch connections in data centres
• Backbone links in enterprise LANs and telecommunications closets
• Workstation connections requiring low latency and high bandwidth
• Structured cabling installations where shielded cables are required

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat8.1
• Data transfer rate: up to 40000 Mbit/s
• Length: 20 m
• Shielding: S/FTP (shielded foil around pairs and overall braid/shield)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Colour: Grey

How to use

Route the cable between the two network endpoints avoiding tight bends and excessive mechanical stress. Insert the RJ-45 connectors into compatible Ethernet ports on switches, routers or network cards until the latch clicks into place. For optimal performance, keep the cable away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference and maintain recommended bend radii specified by Cat8.1 cabling guidelines. When disconnecting, depress the connector latch and pull the plug straight out to avoid damaging the plug or port.

Recommendations

Use this Cat8.1 S/FTP cable for short- to medium-length high-bandwidth links in professional environments; verify connector compatibility and port specifications on networking equipment to ensure full performance.
