Networking cable EFB Elektronik K8560GE.15 RJ-45 Cat6a 15 m Yellow

The EFB Elektronik K8560GE.15 RJ-45 Cat6a 15 m Yellow networking cable is a shielded Ethernet cable designed for high-speed data transmission in structured networks. Constructed to Cat6a specifications with S/FTP shielding and RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts, this 15 metre cable supports data rates up to 10,000 Mbit/s and provides improved protection against electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. The bright yellow jacket improves visibility and identification in patch panels, cable trays and mixed-cable installations.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding combines an overall foil shield with individually shielded twisted pairs to reduce external interference and pair-to-pair crosstalk. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts ensure reliable contact resistance and corrosion resistance over time. Cat6a construction delivers consistent performance for 10GBASE-T networks and other high-bandwidth applications, while the 15 m length covers mid-range connections without additional patching. The yellow outer jacket aids in cable management and quick identification in multi-cable environments.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections in server rooms and data centres
• High-bandwidth workstation connections and professional AV setups
• Patch panel to switch connections and horizontal cabling runs
• Environments requiring reduced interference, such as near electrical equipment

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually shielded pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Maximum data rate: up to 10,000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Length: 15 m
• Colour: yellow

How to use

Route the cable between network devices ensuring minimal bending and avoiding tight loops; maintain a bend radius consistent with manufacturer guidelines to preserve signal integrity. Plug the RJ-45 connectors firmly into the corresponding ports on switches, routers or network interface cards until the latch clicks. For permanent installations, secure the cable along cable trays or using appropriate cable ties and avoid running parallel to large electrical power lines to reduce potential interference.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6a S/FTP cable for 10G Ethernet links up to its rated length and in mixed-cable installations where visibility is important. For best performance, avoid excessive bending, keep separation from high-voltage power cabling, and terminate or test the cable with suitable network testers after installation.
