Networking cable EFB Elektronik K5547SW.3 RJ-45 Cat6a 3 m Black

The EFB Elektronik K5547SW.3 RJ-45 Cat6a networking cable is a 3 m black patch cable designed for high-speed wired connections. Compliant with Cat6a and 10GBase-T standards, it supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s. The cable uses U/FTP (STP) shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and features gold-plated RJ-45 contacts for improved conductivity and resistance to corrosion. Its length and straight RJ-45 to RJ-45 configuration make it suitable for connecting switches, routers, network interface cards and patch panels in office or home environments.

Advantages

The cable provides stable 10GBase-T performance over 3 meters while the U/FTP shielding minimizes crosstalk and external noise. Gold-plated contacts ensure reliable signal transmission and longer connector life. A black outer jacket gives a discreet, professional look and allows easy integration into existing cable runs without drawing attention.

Suitable for

• Connecting network switches and routers in office or data center racks
• Linking desktop PCs or servers to network ports for high-bandwidth applications
• Patch connections between patch panels and active network equipment
• Home networking setups requiring 10 Gbps-capable wired links

Key specifications

• Length: 3 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Standard: Cat6a, compatible with 10GBase-T
• Shielding: U/FTP (shielded twisted pair)
• Contacts: Gold-plated
• Colour: Black
• Maximum data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s

How to use

To use the cable, insert each RJ-45 connector firmly into the network ports of the devices you wish to connect until the latch clicks. Ensure connectors are fully seated and that devices are powered on. For optimal performance, avoid sharp bends and heavy pressure at connector ends and route the cable away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference such as large transformers or unshielded power cables.

Recommendations

For sustained 10G performance, keep cable runs within recommended distances for Cat6a and avoid bundling large numbers of cables without proper separation. Inspect gold-plated contacts periodically for dust and clean gently with a dry, lint-free cloth if needed. Use strain relief at patch panels and devices to prevent connector damage.
