Networking Cable EFB Elektronik K8099.1,5 RJ-45 Cat5e 1.5m Orange

The EFB Elektronik K8099.1,5 is a Cat5e U/UTP networking cable with a 1.5 m length and RJ-45 connectors on both ends. Designed for standard Ethernet connections, this orange cable supports a data transfer rate of 2500 Mbit/s and features gold-plated contacts to improve connection stability and contact reliability. The cable is suitable for connecting computers, network switches, routers and other Ethernet-enabled devices over short to medium distances.

Advantages

The U/UTP construction minimizes interference while maintaining flexibility for easy routing in home or office environments. Gold-plated contacts provide improved corrosion resistance and consistent signal transfer at the connector interface. The 1.5 m length offers a compact solution for tidy cable management between nearby devices. The bright orange color helps with visual identification in cable bundles and structured cabling installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, laptops or network printers to switches or routers
• Patch panel to switch connections in small network racks
• Temporary network setups and workspace rearrangements
• Home networking and office desk connections

Key specifications

• Cable type: Cat5e, U/UTP
• Length: 1.5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 on both ends
• Rated data transfer: 2500 Mbit/s
• Contacts: gold-plated
• Colour: Orange

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector firmly into the Ethernet port of the devices you want to connect until you hear a click. Ensure both device ports are configured for Ethernet communication and that network settings match the intended use (e.g., DHCP or static IP). Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress; avoid running the cable parallel and close to power lines to reduce potential interference. For patch panel use, plug the connectors into the designated jacks and secure cable runs with cable ties or routing trays as needed.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, avoid excessive bending at the connector ends and keep the cable away from high-power electrical equipment. Use the 1.5 m length for short runs or patch connections inside racks and enclosures; choose a longer Cat5e or higher-category cable if greater distance or future bandwidth headroom is required.
