Networking Cable EFB Elektronik K5525FBL.10 RJ-45 Cat6a 10 m Blue

The EFB Elektronik K5525FBL.10 RJ-45 Cat6a 10 m Blue is a 10-metre S/FTP network cable designed for structured cabling and point-to-point Ethernet connections. It complies with the Cat6a specification and is intended for high-speed data transfer up to 10000 Mbit/s. Both ends are fitted with RJ-45 connectors plated with gold to improve contact reliability and reduce corrosion. The cable's blue jacket provides visible identification in patch panels and cable routes.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding construction reduces crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference, supporting reliable transmission in environments with electrical noise. Cat6a rating enables higher bandwidth and better performance for demanding applications compared with lower category cables. Gold-plated RJ-45 plugs offer improved conductivity and longer contact life. A 10 m length covers typical desk-to-switch and equipment-to-rack connections without excess slack.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs, laptops and networked printers to switches or routers
• Patch panel to switch connections in server rooms and wiring closets
• High-bandwidth tasks such as HD video streaming and large file transfers
• Office and home networks where reduced interference and stable links are required

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (shielded foil with individually braided pairs)
• Maximum data rate: 10000 Mbit/s
• Length: 10 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Colour: Blue

How to use

Inspect both RJ-45 connectors and cable jacket for visible damage before installation. Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network device (switch, router or PC) and the other into the corresponding port. Ensure connectors click into place to confirm secure mating. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference; maintain bend radius recommended for structured cabling. For permanent installations, secure the cable with cable management accessories to prevent strain on connectors.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6a S/FTP cable for links up to 10 m where higher bandwidth and shielding are required. Avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines to minimize interference, and test the connection with network diagnostic tools after installation to verify throughput and link integrity.
