Networking cable EFB Elektronik K8095.30 RJ-45 Cat5e 30 m Yellow

The EFB Elektronik K8095.30 RJ-45 Cat5e 30 m Yellow networking cable is a 30-meter unshielded U/UTP patch cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends and gold-plated contacts. Designed for typical data network installations, it supports Ethernet data transmission at Cat5e standards with a maximum practical throughput up to 2500 Mbit/s, and its bright yellow jacket improves cable identification and routing in installations.

Advantages

This Cat5e cable offers a long 30 m reach while maintaining signal quality suitable for LAN connections and patching. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts provide reliable contact resistance and corrosion resistance for consistent performance. The yellow outer sheath makes the cable easy to spot in server rooms, office cabling runs or home networks, aiding organization and troubleshooting without adding shielding complexity.

Suitable for

• Local area network (LAN) connections between switches, routers and workstations
• Patch cabling in server rooms, network racks and patch panels
• Home network setups and multimedia streaming devices
• Temporary or permanent installations where color-coded identification is useful

Key specifications

• Cable type: Cat5e U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair)
• Length: 30 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Contact finish: Gold-plated contacts
• Data rate capability: up to 2500 Mbit/s (practical maximum under Cat5e conditions)
• Outer colour: Yellow

How to use

Route the cable between network devices ensuring bends do not exceed recommended bend radius for Ethernet cables and avoid running parallel to high-voltage power lines to reduce interference. Insert the RJ-45 plugs fully into the device ports until the latch clicks. For fixed installations, secure the cable with appropriate clips or cable ties without compressing the jacket. Test the connection with a network tester or by verifying link/activity LEDs on the connected devices.

Recommendations

For consistent performance, keep total combined patch lengths within standard network design limits and use Cat5e-rated patch panels and connectors. Use the yellow colour to mark specific network segments or device groups, and replace the cable if physical damage or degraded link performance is observed.
