Networking Cable EFB Elektronik K8100GR.0,25 RJ-45 Cat6 0.25 m Grey

The EFB Elektronik K8100GR.0,25 RJ-45 Cat6 networking cable is a compact, high-performance patch cable designed for short-distance Ethernet connections. At 0.25 m length and Cat6 specification, it supports reliable data transmission up to 5000 Mbit/s and features U/UTP construction with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. Gold-plated contacts improve conductivity and resist corrosion, while the grey jacket blends into professional and home environments.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable offers low-latency, high-bandwidth performance suitable for modern network equipment. The U/UTP shielding provides basic protection against electromagnetic interference in typical installations. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts ensure stable electrical connection and long-term durability. The short 0.25 m length reduces cable clutter and is convenient for direct patching between closely positioned devices.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Connecting switches and routers in rack-mounted or compact setups
• Patch connections between network ports on the same desk or server shelf
• Short signal runs in office, data center, or home network environments
• High-speed links for devices requiring Gigabit or multi-gigabit throughput

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6
• Cable length: 0.25 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair with overall jacket)
• Maximum data rate: up to 5000 Mbit/s
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Color: grey

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector firmly into the device Ethernet ports until a click confirms seating. Use the cable to directly link network devices located close to each other, such as adjacent switch ports or a router and a modem. Ensure connectors are oriented correctly and avoid bending the cable sharply near the ends to maintain performance. For installation in patch panels or network racks, route the cable to avoid stress and excessive tension.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this short Cat6 cable in environments where device ports are in close proximity. Avoid exposure to sources of strong electromagnetic interference and maintain a gentle bend radius. Periodically inspect connectors for dirt or damage and clean with appropriate contact cleaner if needed.
