Networking Cable EFB Elektronik K8100MA.1,5 RJ-45 Cat6 1.5 m Magenta

The EFB Elektronik K8100MA.1,5 is a 1.5 m Cat6 networking cable designed for reliable wired connections. It uses RJ-45 connectors on both ends with gold-plated contacts and U/UTP construction to support stable signal transmission. Rated for data throughputs up to 5000 Mbit/s, the magenta cable provides a compact, visible solution for desktop, rack, and patch-panel use where Cat6 performance is required.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable offers a balance of performance and convenience through its 1.5 m length, which is suitable for short runs between devices. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts improve conductivity and corrosion resistance, while the U/UTP design minimizes crosstalk in typical office and home environments. The magenta colour makes cable routing and identification simpler in multi-cable installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers, switches and routers within a work area
• Patching between wall outlets and network devices
• Short horizontal runs in server racks and network cabinets
• Home network setups requiring Cat6 capability

Key specifications

• Cable standard: Cat6
• Cable length: 1.5 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pairs with overall braid absent)
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Maximum data rate: up to 5000 Mbit/s (application dependent)
• Colour: magenta

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network port of your computer, switch, router or patch panel and plug the other end into the corresponding network port. Ensure both devices support the intended network speed and verify link status on device indicators. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference for stable performance.

Recommendations

For best results, use this Cat6 cable for runs up to 1.5 m and avoid kinking or tight loops. When deploying multiple coloured cables for organisation, label both ends to simplify future changes. Keep the cable away from high-voltage power lines and heavy machinery to reduce interference.
