Networking Cable EFB Elektronik K8076.5 RJ-45 Cat5e 5m Red

The EFB Elektronik K8076.5 is a 5 m Cat.5e F/UTP patch cable with shielded Hirose TM11 RJ45 plugs, designed for reliable Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000Base-T) connections. The cable features an AWG26/7 conductor construction, foil shielding and a flame-retardant, low-smoke, halogen-free LSZH jacket. It is TIA/EIA 568B coded and fitted with mounted strain relief boots without latch protection; the cable comes in red for easy identification in installations.

Advantages

The foil-shielded F/UTP design reduces electromagnetic interference for stable data transmission at Cat.5e performance. Shielded Hirose TM11 RJ45 plugs compliant with IEC 60603-7-3 improve connector reliability. The LSZH jacket meets IEC 60332-1, IEC 60754-2 and IEC 61034 standards for flame retardancy, low smoke and halogen-free characteristics. The 5 m length offers flexibility for home and office setups while the red colour helps with cable management.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Connecting switches, routers and networked devices in offices and homes
• Structured cabling runs requiring Cat.5e support
• Environments where reduced interference is needed (shielded runs)
• Installations where low-smoke, halogen-free materials are required

How to use

Plug each shielded RJ45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet ports of your network devices (switch, router, PC). Ensure connectors are fully inserted to establish a secure connection. Use the 5 m length to route between equipment while avoiding sharp bends and excessive tension; the mounted strain relief boots provide basic protection at the connector exits but do not include latch protection.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable in shielded or properly grounded installations to take advantage of the F/UTP foil shielding. Avoid routing the cable parallel and close to strong electrical noise sources. Inspect connectors for damage before use and replace the cable if the jacket or shielding is compromised.
