Networking Cable EFB Elektronik K5535GR.15 15m Cat6a S/FTP

The EFB Elektronik K5535GR.15 15m Cat6a S/FTP networking cable is a straight-through grey patch cable engineered for high-performance Ethernet connections. It complies with Cat6a specifications and supports 10GBase-T cabling technology, providing data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s. Both ends are fitted with RJ-45 connectors featuring gold-plated contacts to reduce signal loss and maintain stable throughput over the full 15 m length.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding combines an overall foil shield with individually shielded pairs, reducing electromagnetic interference and crosstalk in dense wiring environments. The Cat6a rating ensures reliable transmission at 10 Gbps for demanding network applications, while gold-plated RJ-45 connectors improve contact reliability and corrosion resistance. The 15 m length offers flexibility for connecting devices across rooms or between racks without additional couplers.

Suitable for

• High-speed local area networks supporting 10GBase-T
• Office and data center patching where shielding is required
• Connecting switches, servers, workstations, and networked storage
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil shield with individually foil-shielded pairs)
• Length: 15 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Supported standard: 10GBase-T
• Colour: Grey
• Cable type: Straight-through

How to use

Insert the RJ-45 connector at one end into the network port of a switch, router, or device and the RJ-45 connector at the other end into the corresponding port. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click to establish a secure physical connection. For long installations, avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling on the cable; maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for twisted-pair cables to preserve signal integrity.

Recommendations

Route the cable away from large power cables and sources of electromagnetic noise whenever possible. When installing in structured cabling or rack systems, use proper cable management to prevent kinks and to maintain the cable's shielding continuity for optimal 10GBase-T performance.
