Networking cable EFB Elektronik K5516.15 RJ-45 Cat6 15 m Orange

1 Gigabit Ethernet Cat.6 250 MHz patch cable with two shielded RJ45 plugs and molded strain relief boot. The cable uses S/FTP construction (4 pairs, each pair foil‑shielded, overall braid) with AWG27/7 conductors and a diameter of 6.2 mm. It is coded to TIA/EIA 568B for standard wiring and meets flame retardant and low‑smoke, halogen‑free safety standards.

Advantages

The shielded S/FTP design and IEC 60603‑7‑5 compliant RJ45 plugs provide improved protection against electromagnetic interference and reliable data transmission up to 1 Gbps. LSZH (low smoke, zero halogen) materials reduce toxic emissions in case of fire. A moulded strain relief boot with latch protection minimizes connector stress and accidental unplugging during use.

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.6, 250 MHz
• Data rate: 1 Gigabit Ethernet
• Connector type: 2 x RJ45 plug, shielded (IEC 60603-7-5)
• Cable construction: S/FTP (4 x 2), PiMF
• Conductor: AWG27/7
• Diameter: Ø 6.2 mm
• Wiring code: TIA/EIA 568B
• Fire and safety: IEC 60332-1 (flame retardant), IEC 60754-2 (halogen‑free), IEC 61034 (low smoke)
• Boot: Moulded strain relief with latch protection

How to use

Terminate both ends into corresponding RJ45 ports following TIA/EIA 568B wiring. Insert the molded plugs fully until the latch clicks and ensure the strain relief boot rests against the device housing to avoid cable bending near the connector. Use within standard Ethernet setups such as switches, routers and patch panels designed for Gigabit operation.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid tight bends and crushing; maintain bend radius at least four times the cable diameter. Select shielded ports or grounded patch panels when using in environments with significant electromagnetic interference.
