Networking cable EFB Elektronik K8051.7 RJ-45 Cat6a 7 m Grey

The EFB Elektronik K8051.7 RJ-45 Cat6a networking cable is a 7 m grey cable designed for high-speed wired connections. Built to Cat6a specifications, it supports data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and incorporates S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure reliable contact and improved corrosion resistance for long-term use.

Advantages

This Cat6a cable provides stable, high-bandwidth performance suitable for demanding network environments. The S/FTP shielding layout offers enhanced protection against external noise and internal pair-to-pair interference, improving signal integrity across the full length. Gold-plated RJ-45 plugs deliver consistent connectivity and lower contact resistance. The 7 m length allows flexible placement between devices while the grey outer jacket gives a neutral appearance that fits residential and office setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and networked devices in home or office LANs
• High-speed data transfer for NAS, servers and desktop PCs
• Streaming and online gaming with reduced latency on wired connections
• Structured cabling runs where Cat6a performance is required

Key specifications

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network port on devices such as a router, switch, NAS or PC. Ensure connectors click into place to confirm a secure physical connection. For optimal performance, avoid tight bends and kinks in the cable and keep it separated from strong sources of electromagnetic interference where possible. After connection, verify link speed and network settings on the connected devices to confirm expected data rates.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6a cable for wired connections where stable, high-bandwidth performance is needed. For permanent installations, route the cable through cable management channels and avoid running it parallel to power lines to minimize potential interference. Replace the cable if connectors show visible wear or if link quality degrades over time.
