Networking Cable EFB Elektronik K5525FRT.7,5 RJ-45 Cat6a 7.5m Red

The EFB Elektronik K5525FRT.7,5 is a 7.5-metre Cat6a networking cable designed for high-speed wired connections. Constructed with S/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors, the cable supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is intended for environments where stable, low-interference Ethernet communication is required. Its red jacket makes cable routing and identification straightforward in racks, offices, and home networks.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, improving signal integrity over longer runs. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors provide corrosion resistance and consistent contact reliability. The Cat6a standard supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet at suitable distances, offering headroom for current and future network requirements. The 7.5 m length balances reach and manageability for typical workstation-to-switch connections.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in small offices and server rooms
• Desktop or wall-mounted workstation connections to switches or patch panels
• Structured cabling runs requiring clear cable identification (color-coding)
• Audio/video streaming, VoIP and other latency-sensitive network services

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Length: 7.5 m
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with individually foiled pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Maximum supported data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s (10 Gbps)
• Colour: Red

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (switch, router, or NIC) and the other to the corresponding port on the peer device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click to establish a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends, kinks, or tight tie-downs—maintain recommended bend radius to preserve performance. For structured installations, label each end and secure the cable using cable management accessories to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

For optimal 10 Gbit performance, avoid running the cable parallel and close to high-voltage power lines or sources of strong electromagnetic interference. Use the red colour to mark specific network segments or device groups and replace the cable if physical damage or connector wear is observed.
