Networking Cable EFB Elektronik K8058.1,5 RJ-45 Cat6a 1.5m White

The EFB Elektronik K8058.1,5 RJ-45 Cat6a networking cable is a 1.5 m patch cable designed for high-speed wired Ethernet connections. Constructed to the Cat6a standard, the cable supports data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and uses 10GBase-T cabling technology. Both ends terminate in RJ-45 plugs with gold-plated contacts, and the S/FTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference for stable signal transmission. Finished in white, the cable is suitable for residential, office, and equipment-rack installations where a compact, reliable connection is required.

Advantages

The Cat6a specification allows for 10 Gbit/s performance over short distances and improved headroom for bandwidth-intensive applications. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors enhance conductivity and reduce contact corrosion over time. The S/FTP shielding (overall braid plus individually screened pairs) provides robust protection against crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference, improving connection stability in environments with multiple electronic devices. The 1.5 m length balances flexibility and tidy cable management for desktop and patch-panel use.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• High-speed local area network (LAN) connections between switches, routers and servers
• Workstation or desktop Ethernet connections in offices and home offices
• Patch-panel and rack patching in server rooms and data cabinets
• Connecting networked storage devices, NAS, and media players requiring 10GBase-T
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference where shielded cabling is preferred

Key specifications

• Cabling standard: Cat6a
• Data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Length: 1.5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 — both ends
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with individually shielded pairs)

• Technology: 10GBase-T compatible
• Color: white

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to the network device (switch, router, network card, or patch panel) and the other RJ-45 end to the corresponding device. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks. For best performance, avoid sharp bends near the connector and maintain a minimal bend radius along the cable. When used in patch panels or racks, route the cable to avoid compression or kinking and secure with appropriate cable management accessories.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6a S/FTP cable for short to medium length 10GBase-T connections where shielding is required. Avoid running the cable in close parallel to high-voltage power lines to minimize interference. Inspect connectors periodically and replace the cable if any physical damage or connector wear is observed.
