Networking cable EFB Elektronik K8100RT.15 RJ-45 Cat6 15 m Red

The EFB Elektronik K8100RT.15 RJ-45 Cat6 15 m Red is a network patch cable designed for wired Ethernet connections. It is built to the Cat6 standard with U/UTP shielding and gold-plated RJ-45 contacts to provide stable signal transmission and reliable physical connection over a 15 metre length. The cable supports high data throughput up to 5000 Mbit/s and is finished in a red jacket for easy visual identification within rack, office or home network installations.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable combines U/UTP construction with gold-plated contacts to reduce contact resistance and maintain consistent connection quality. The 15 m length eliminates the need for additional patch points in medium-distance runs, and the red colour helps with cable management and quick visual tracing. The cable is compatible with standard RJ-45 ports and is suitable for modern Ethernet networks that require higher throughput and stable physical links.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs, switches and routers within offices or data closets
• Patch panel and rack connections where a 15 m reach is required
• Home networks requiring a clearly visible cable for organization
• Localized high-speed links for IP cameras, VoIP phones or streaming devices

Key specifications

• Cable standard: Cat6
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pairs with overall unshielded jacket)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Length: 15 m
• Maximum data rate: up to 5000 Mbit/s
• Colour: Red

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port on your devices until the latch clicks. Ensure both ends are securely seated in switches, routers or network interface cards. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and excessive tension; allow gentle curves with a radius larger than the cable diameter to preserve internal twisting. When using patch panels or structured cabling, label both ends for easier identification and testing.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines and keep it away from sources of electromagnetic interference. Use the 15 m length for direct connections or patching in racks and verify link speed after installation using network diagnostics. For permanent in-wall installations, confirm local building codes and consider plenum-rated or in-wall rated alternatives.
