Networking cable EFB Elektronik K8100SW.20 RJ-45 Cat6 20 m Black

The EFB Elektronik K8100SW.20 is a 20 m Cat6 networking cable designed for wired Ethernet connections. It uses U/UTP construction and is fitted with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. The cable supports high data throughput and features gold-plated contacts to improve signal transmission and resist corrosion. Its black jacket provides a neutral appearance suitable for office or home installations.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable delivers reliable performance for Gigabit and higher-speed networks with a rated data transfer capability up to 5000 Mbit/s. The U/UTP shielding minimises external electromagnetic interference while maintaining flexibility for routing and installation. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts enhance conductivity and reduce contact wear over repeated plug cycles. The 20 m length allows connection between devices or from patch panels to wall outlets without additional joins.

Suitable for

• Wired Ethernet connections in offices and homes
• Connecting switches, routers, PCs, and networked devices
• Patch panel to wall outlet or equipment room cabling
• Temporary or permanent network installations that require a 20 m reach

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6
• Length: 20 m
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair with overall screening type)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Contact plating: Gold-plated contacts
• Maximum data rate: up to 5000 Mbit/s
• Colour: Black

How to use

Uncoil the cable and route it along the chosen pathway, avoiding tight bends and sharp edges to preserve signal integrity. Insert the RJ-45 connectors firmly into the appropriate Ethernet ports on your devices until the latch clicks. For best performance, keep the cable clear of sources of strong electromagnetic interference such as large motors or unshielded power lines. Terminate and secure both ends to network equipment or wall plates as required for your installation.

Recommendations

Use the cable for LAN connections where a 20 m reach is required and Cat6 performance is appropriate. Avoid excessive bending radius, exposure to moisture, and prolonged UV exposure. For installations with high interference or outdoor runs, consider purpose-designed shielded or outdoor-rated cabling.
