Networking cable EFB Elektronik K3130.15 — Cat6a S/FTP (S‑STP), RJ-45 to RJ-45, 15 m, black

The EFB Elektronik K3130.15 is a 15 m Cat6a S/FTP (S‑STP) networking cable with RJ‑45 connectors at both ends, designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications. Manufactured in Europe, the cable uses a Cat.7 core (Patch Pro flex Cat 7 by Draka) and Hirose TM31 connectors, and features a PUR outer sheath that enables outdoor use except for direct burial.

Advantages

The construction with S/FTP shielding and a Cat.7 core provides improved protection against electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, supporting reliable transmission at data rates up to 10 000 Mbit/s. Gold‑plated contacts on the RJ‑45 connectors ensure consistent contact quality and corrosion resistance. The PUR jacket increases mechanical durability and weather resistance for installations exposed to the elements (not suitable for direct burial).

Suitable for

• High‑speed LAN and backbone connections up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Server rooms and data centers requiring stable throughput
• Professional office and industrial network installations with elevated interference levels
• Temporary or permanent outdoor cabling where direct burial is not required

How to use

Connect the RJ‑45 plugs to compatible Ethernet ports on switches, routers, servers or endpoints. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until a click is felt. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends (respect the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius), heavy crushing loads or close proximity to strong electrical sources. For outdoor runs, protect termination points and connectors from direct water ingress and UV exposure where necessary.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6a S/FTP patch cable for high‑speed Ethernet links in LANs, server environments and outdoor installations where enhanced shielding and mechanical durability are required. Do not install the cable in direct burial applications and avoid prolonged exposure of connectors to standing water.
