Networking cable EFB Elektronik K5511.50 RJ-45 Cat6 50 m Yellow

The EFB Elektronik K5511.50 RJ-45 Cat6 50 m Yellow networking cable is a 50-metre Category 6 Ethernet cable designed for structured cabling and data transmission in office, data center and home network environments. The cable uses S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and features RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts to maintain stable signal integrity for high-speed connections up to 5000 Mbit/s. Its yellow jacket improves visibility for cable management and quick identification within patch panels and cable trays.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding construction provides enhanced protection against crosstalk and external electromagnetic noise, which helps maintain consistent throughput in congested cable bundles and near electrical equipment. Gold-plated contacts on the RJ-45 plugs improve corrosion resistance and ensure reliable mating with network ports. The Cat6 specification supports high data rates and is backward compatible with previous Ethernet standards, enabling flexible deployment in mixed infrastructure environments.

Suitable for

• Wired LAN connections in offices and homes
• Patch panel and switch interconnections in server rooms
• PoE devices where Cat6 performance is required
• Temporary or permanent installations requiring visible cable identification

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6
• Length: 50 m
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall shield with individually shielded pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Maximum data rate: up to 5000 Mbit/s
• Outer colour: Yellow

How to use

Route the cable following standard installation practices: avoid sharp bends and excessive tension, maintain recommended bend radius, and keep distance from high-voltage power lines to minimize interference. Terminate both ends into compatible RJ-45 ports or patch panels, ensuring full insertion of the plugs for secure contact. For permanent installations, use appropriate cable management accessories such as ties, trays and labels to preserve shielding integrity and simplify future maintenance.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, test the installed cable with a network tester supporting Cat6 parameters. When routing near electrical equipment, preserve the S/FTP shielding by avoiding damage to the jacket and connectors. Use the yellow colour to mark specific network segments or service types for easier troubleshooting and inventory management.
