Networking cable EFB Elektronik K5457.15 RJ-45 Cat5e 15 m Yellow

The EFB Elektronik K5457.15 is a 15 m Cat5e SF/UTP networking cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. It supports Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000Base-T(X)) and is constructed with 4 pairs of AWG26/7 conductors, foil and braid shielding, and a PVC jacket. The cable is coded to TIA/EIA 568B, flame retardant to IEC 60332-1 and comes in yellow for easy identification.

Advantages

This Cat5e cable provides reliable data transfer up to 1000 Mbit/s and reduced electromagnetic interference thanks to SF/UTP (foil and braid) shielding. Molded strain relief boots with latch protection ensure connector durability and secure connections. Compliance with IEC 60603-7-3 for RJ45 plugs and TIA/EIA 568B coding allows straightforward installation in standard network environments.

Suitable for

• Wired LAN connections for desktops, switches and routers
• Cabinet and patch panel patching in small and medium networks
• Temporary or permanent network wiring where visibility is required

How to use

Connect each RJ-45 connector to the corresponding network port on devices such as routers, switches or network interface cards. Ensure the molded strain relief boot is fully seated to protect the latch and reduce stress on the connector. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and keep it away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference for optimal performance.

Recommendations

For best results in Gigabit networks, keep cable runs within recommended lengths for structured cabling and avoid tight bending radii. Use the yellow color to label or distinguish specific circuits in patch panels or racks.
