Networking Cable EFB Elektronik K8560GR.20 RJ45 Cat6a 20m Grey

The EFB Elektronik K8560GR.20 RJ45 Cat6a 20m networking cable is designed for stable, high-speed wired connections in home and office environments. Built to Cat6a performance, the grey, 20-metre cable provides extended reach between routers, switches, computers and other networked devices while maintaining reliable signal quality for demanding tasks such as large file transfers and high-definition streaming.

Advantages

This Cat6a cable supports higher bandwidth and improved crosstalk performance compared with lower-category cables, enabling consistent data transmission over longer distances. The cable terminates in two standard RJ-45 connectors compatible with most Ethernet ports. The 20 m length offers flexibility for room-to-room routing without needing multiple shorter cables or additional couplers. A neutral grey jacket provides a discreet appearance in residential or professional installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers, NAS devices and switches in home or small office networks
• High-definition video streaming and online gaming with minimal latency
• Wired internet connections for smart TVs and media players
• Temporary or permanent network runs where 20 m cable length is required

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a performance suitable for up to 10 Gbps over appropriate distances
• Length: 20 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, standard 8P8C pinout
• Colour: Grey jacket
• Type: Unshielded twisted pair (typical for Cat6a patch cables) — verify in installation environment if additional shielding is required

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of your router, switch or modem and plug the other connector into the target device such as a PC, NAS or smart TV. Ensure connectors click into place to confirm a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and avoid placing it near high-power electrical cables or sources of electromagnetic interference. If you need to pass the cable through walls or conduit, follow local building regulations and use appropriate grommets or conduit fittings.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable for wired connections where stability and speed are required. Test network throughput after installation and consider cable management solutions (cable ties, trunking) to keep the run tidy and reduce mechanical stress. If your installation environment has strong electromagnetic interference or requires future-proofing beyond typical home use, evaluate shielded alternatives and installation best practices.
