Networking Cable EFB Elektronik K5525FRT.10 RJ-45 Cat6a 10 m Red

The EFB Elektronik K5525FRT.10 RJ-45 Cat6a networking cable is a 10 m red cable designed for high-speed network connections. Built to Cat6a standard with S/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors, it supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and provides reduced crosstalk and improved signal integrity for demanding wired LAN environments.

Advantages

The cable's Cat6a specification and S/FTP shielding offer increased protection against electromagnetic interference and near-end crosstalk compared with lower-category cables. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure reliable contact and corrosion resistance for stable long-term connectivity. The 10 m length provides flexibility in device placement while the distinct red color improves cable identification and organization in patch panels and network installations.

Suitable for

• High-speed Ethernet connections (up to 10 Gbps) in offices and data closets
• Connecting switches, routers, NAS units, and workstations
• Wired home networks requiring low latency for streaming and gaming
• Structured cabling runs within racks and patch panels where visual identification is useful

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a (augmented Cat6)
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braided shield with individually foil-shielded pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Length: 10 m
• Colour: Red
• Maximum data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)

How to use

Plug one gold-plated RJ-45 connector into the network port of your switch, router, or network interface and the other connector into the target device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and sharp kinks; maintain bend radius recommendations typical for Cat6a cables to preserve signal performance. For installations in racks or conduits, secure the cable using appropriate cable management accessories without compressing the shielding.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines for extended distances and keep separation from sources of electromagnetic interference. Use labeled cable ties or colored identification to match the red cable to corresponding ports in structured installations. Test connections with a network tester after installation to verify link speed and signal integrity.
