Networking cable EFB Elektronik K8072.15 RJ-45 Cat5e 15 m Black

The EFB Elektronik K8072.15 is a 15 m Cat5e networking cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. Designed with F/UTP shielding and gold-plated contacts, the cable provides stable signal transmission and reduced electromagnetic interference for wired LAN connections. Its black outer sheath offers a neutral, unobtrusive appearance suitable for office or home installations while supporting data transfer rates up to 2500 Mbit/s.

Advantages

F/UTP shielding improves noise rejection from surrounding cables and electronic devices, helping to maintain connection integrity across the full 15 m length. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts reduce oxidation and ensure reliable conductivity over time. The cable is manufactured to Cat5e standards, providing a balance of performance and compatibility with common network equipment.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers, printers and network switches within offices or homes
• Wired LAN connections for routers and access points
• Temporary or permanent cabling in small server rooms and multimedia setups
• Patch panel to wall-socket or device-to-device Ethernet links

How to use

Route the cable between network devices avoiding sharp bends and tight loops; maintain a gentle bend radius to prevent internal conductor stress. Insert the RJ-45 plugs fully into compatible ports until the locking tab clicks. For best performance, keep the cable separated from strong electrical sources and avoid running alongside power cables for extended lengths. Verify link and speed settings on connected devices after installation.

Recommendations

For stable performance over the full 15 m length, avoid excessive bends, keep the cable away from high-voltage installations, and use proper cable management such as clips or cable ties. Regularly inspect connectors for debris and ensure ports are free from dust to maintain optimal contact.
