Networking cable EFB Elektronik K5525FGN.3 Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP) 3 m Green RJ-45 to RJ-45

EFB Elektronik K5525FGN.3 Cat6a S/FTP (S‑STP) 3 m networking cable is designed for high-speed Ethernet connections in home, office and data center environments. The cable supports 10GBase‑T data transmission up to 10,000 Mbit/s and is assembled with RJ‑45 connectors on both ends featuring gold‑plated contacts. The S/FTP shielding structure reduces electromagnetic interference and preserves signal integrity over the 3‑metre length, while the green outer jacket provides easy visual identification in cable bundles.

Advantages

The S/FTP (S‑STP) construction combines an overall braided shield with individually foil‑shielded pairs to minimize crosstalk and external EMI, improving stability for high bandwidth applications. Gold‑plated RJ‑45 contacts ensure reliable contact resistance and corrosion resistance for long‑term performance. The Cat6a specification and 10GBase‑T compatibility make this cable suitable for modern Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks, and the 3 m length offers flexibility for rack, desk and wall connections without excess cable slack.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and servers in small to medium sized networks
• High‑speed LAN connections for workstations and networked storage
• Office and home network setups where shielded cabling is required to reduce interference

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid + foil‑shielded pairs)
• Length: 3 m
• Connectors: RJ‑45 to RJ‑45 with gold‑plated contacts
• Supported standard: 10GBase‑T
• Maximum data rate: up to 10,000 Mbit/s
• Colour: Green

How to use

Plug one RJ‑45 connector into the network device (switch, router, network card or server) and the other connector into the corresponding port on the connected device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks into place. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and keep it separated from sources of strong electromagnetic interference wherever possible. For structured cabling installations, secure the cable along trays or conduits and leave slight slack near connectors to prevent strain.

Recommendations

For optimal performance at 10G speeds, use short runs and avoid tight bends or kinks. Maintain proper grounding of network equipment and minimize proximity to power cables to reduce potential interference. Select shielded ports or grounded patch panels when integrating S/FTP cables into existing infrastructure.
