Networking Cable EFB Elektronik K8108WS.0,5 RJ-45 Cat6a 0.5m White

The EFB Elektronik K8108WS.0,5 is a 0.5 m networking cable with RJ-45 connectors built to the Cat6a standard. Designed for short patch runs and device-to-switch connections, this white U/UTP cable supports data transmission speeds up to 10000 Mbit/s and features gold-plated contacts for improved contact reliability and corrosion resistance. Its compact length and standard RJ-45 terminations make it suitable for structured cabling environments where space is limited and a reliable Cat6a link is required.

Advantages

The cable's Cat6a specification provides increased performance margin for high-speed Ethernet up to 10 Gbit/s over short distances while U/UTP construction helps control near-end crosstalk in typical installations. Gold-plated contacts reduce oxidation and support consistent connection quality over repeated mate cycles. The 0.5 m length reduces excess cable clutter and is convenient for patching within racks, between adjacent devices or for tidy workstation connections. The white jacket offers a neutral appearance that integrates into many environments.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between network devices and switches
• Device-to-device connections in racks or compact equipment setups
• Workstation or desk-side Ethernet links where minimal slack is required
• Environments where a white cable aesthetic is preferred

Key specifications

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port on your devices or network equipment until the latch clicks. Use the 0.5 m length for short connections where minimal slack is desired, such as patch panels, switch-to-switch links in adjacent rack units, or direct device connections. Avoid excessive bending near the connectors and do not place the cable under sustained tensile load. For best performance, ensure connectors are fully inserted and ports are compatible with Cat6a cabling.

Recommendations

For optimal results, use this Cat6a cable for short-distance 10 Gbit/s links and keep cable runs free from sharp bends and strong electromagnetic interference sources. When routing inside racks or tight spaces, verify that the cable length is appropriate to prevent strain on ports and maintain tidy cable management.
