Networking Cable EFB Elektronik K8050.30 30m Cat6a S/FTP Black

The EFB Elektronik K8050.30 30m Cat6a S/FTP Black network cable is designed for high-speed wired connections in office and home infrastructure. Compliant with Cat6a performance, the cable supports 10GBase-T transmission and data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s. S/FTP shielding combines an overall foil with individually braided shields for each pair, reducing electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. Both ends are terminated with gold-plated RJ-45 connectors to ensure consistent contact and corrosion resistance over time.

Advantages

This Cat6a S/FTP cable provides stable 10 Gbit/s performance over extended distances, with robust shielding that improves signal integrity in environments with multiple cables or electronic devices. The gold-plated RJ-45 connectors enhance connection reliability and reduce the risk of signal loss due to oxidation. The 30 m length covers medium to large rooms or short runs between racks and network outlets while maintaining Cat6a specifications for bandwidth and transmission quality.

Suitable for

• Wired Ethernet connections for desktop computers, switches and routers
• 10GBase-T network segments in small offices and server rooms
• Structured cabling between patch panels and wall outlets
• High-bandwidth applications such as video streaming, VoIP and data backups

Key specifications

How to use

Route the cable between network devices taking care to avoid tight bends and sharp edges that could damage the internal pairs or shielding. Insert each gold-plated RJ-45 connector firmly into the corresponding Ethernet port until the latch clicks. For best performance, keep the cable run within recommended maximum lengths for structured cabling and avoid running parallel to high-voltage power lines. If terminating into patch panels or keystone jacks, ensure proper strain relief and maintain pair twist as much as possible during termination.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat6a S/FTP cable in shielded or grounded network environments to allow the cable shield to dissipate interference. Test links after installation with appropriate cable testers to verify 10GBase-T capability and correct wiring. When routing long runs, maintain separation from fluorescent lights, motors and electric conduits to minimize electromagnetic interference.
