Networking Cable EFB Elektronik K8104BL.0,5 RJ-45 Cat6 0.5m Blue

The EFB Elektronik K8104BL.0,5 is a 0.5 m Cat6 networking cable with RJ-45 connectors designed for short-distance wired Ethernet connections. It uses U/UTP construction and supports data transfer rates up to 5000 Mbit/s. Gold-plated contacts reduce oxidation and help maintain stable signal transmission. The cable's blue jacket provides easy visual identification in patch panels and small network installations.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable offers compact length for tidy connections between devices positioned close to each other, minimizing cable clutter. U/UTP shielding delivers basic protection against electromagnetic interference in typical office and home environments. RJ-45 connectors ensure compatibility with standard Ethernet ports, and gold-plated contacts improve contact reliability and corrosion resistance for long-term use.

Suitable for

• Connecting a desktop PC or laptop to a nearby switch or router
• Short patch connections in server racks or patch panels
• Linking network devices in home offices and small office setups

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6
• Cable length: 0.5 m
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pairs with overall unshielded jacket)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Maximum data rate: up to 5000 Mbit/s
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Colour: blue

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector firmly into the Ethernet ports of the devices you intend to connect, such as a router, switch, or computer. Ensure the connector latch clicks into place to confirm a secure connection. For best results, route the 0.5 m cable without sharp bends or kinks and avoid running it alongside high-power electrical cables to reduce potential interference.

Recommendations

Use this short Cat6 cable for tidy, short-range connections where longer cables would create excess slack. Inspect connectors periodically and replace the cable if contacts show visible wear or if connection stability degrades.
