Networking cable EFB Elektronik K8580GR.1,5 RJ-45 Cat6a 1.5 m Grey

The EFB Elektronik K8580GR.1,5 networking cable is a 1.5 m grey patch cable built to the Cat6a standard with S/FTP shielding and RJ-45 connectors. It supports high data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is intended for reliable wired connections in local area networks, server racks, office workstations and home networking setups where reduced interference and high throughput are required.

Advantages

This Cat6a cable uses S/FTP shielding to minimise crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference, improving signal integrity over short and medium distances. Both RJ-45 connectors are gold plated for enhanced contact reliability and reduced oxidation. The 1.5 m length provides a balance between flexibility and tidy cable management, while the grey jacket offers a neutral appearance that fits professional and residential environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktops, laptops and network switches
• Patch panel to switch links in server cabinets
• High-bandwidth applications such as streaming, VoIP and data backup
• Small office and home office (SOHO) wired networks

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually shielded pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Maximum data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Length: 1.5 m
• Colour: grey

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to the network port of your device and the other to a router, switch or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the locking tab clicks to secure the connection. For best performance, avoid tight bends and kinks in the cable and route it away from large sources of electromagnetic interference such as unshielded power cables or transformers.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6a S/FTP cable for short to medium runs where 10 Gbps-capable links are required; maintain bend radius and avoid mechanical stress to preserve shielding effectiveness and connector integrity.
