Networking cable EFB Elektronik K8560RT.25 Red 25 m Cat6a S/FTP

The EFB Elektronik K8560RT.25 Red 25 m Cat6a S/FTP networking cable is a shielded Ethernet cable designed for high-speed wired connections. Built to Cat6a specification with S/FTP shielding, this 25 metre cable supports data transfer rates up to 10 000 Mbit/s and is suitable for demanding network environments that require reduced electromagnetic interference. The cable is terminated with RJ-45 connectors plated in gold to improve contact reliability and resist corrosion. Its red jacket provides a visible and organized cabling option for residential or commercial installations.

Advantages

The Cat6a construction with S/FTP shielding offers enhanced protection against crosstalk and external interference compared with unshielded alternatives, supporting stable throughput at higher frequencies. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors deliver consistent electrical contact and improved durability over repeated connections. The 25 m length allows flexible placement of networking devices without signal boosters in typical installations, while the colored jacket helps with cable identification and structured routing.

Suitable for

• Wired connections for desktop PCs, switches and routers in home networks
• Office network backbones and floor-level runs where interference suppression is needed
• Data transfer and streaming in small server rooms and media setups
• Cable management where color-coded identification simplifies maintenance

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually shielded pairs)
• Maximum data rate: up to 10 000 Mbit/s
• Length: 25 m
• Connector type: RJ-45
• Connector plating: gold-plated contacts
• Jacket colour: red

How to use

Route the cable from the network source to the destination device, avoiding sharp bends and tight turns to preserve cable performance. Insert the RJ-45 connectors firmly into the corresponding ports on switches, routers or network cards until the latch clicks. For fixed installations, secure the cable along runs using appropriate cable clips or cable management channels and keep it separated from power lines to minimize interference. Test the connection using a network tester or by verifying link and data transfer status on the connected devices.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, maintain bend radii greater than the cable diameter, avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines, and use shielded patch panels or connectors when integrating into shielded infrastructure to preserve the S/FTP effectiveness.
