Networking Cable EFB Elektronik K8580RT.1,5 RJ-45 Cat6a 1.5m Red

The EFB Elektronik K8580RT.1,5 RJ-45 Cat6a 1.5m Red is a high-performance network patch cable designed for environments that require secure, high-speed wired connections. With Cat6a specification and 10GBase-T cabling technology, this 1.5 meter cable supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is fitted with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. S/FTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, while gold-plated contacts improve contact reliability and corrosion resistance. The red jacket makes cable identification straightforward in complex installations.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding provides enhanced protection against external electromagnetic interference and minimizes pair-to-pair crosstalk for more stable data transmission. The Cat6a class and 10GBase-T support enable reliable 10 Gbit/s operation over short distances typical in server rooms, workstations, and network closets. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts ensure consistent electrical contact and resist oxidation over time. The 1.5 m length offers a balance between reach and tidy cable management, and the red color simplifies visual identification in multi-cable setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting servers, switches, and network appliances in data centers and server rooms
• High-speed workstation connections for video editing, CAD, or large file transfers
• Patch panels and network racks where short, reliable links are required
• Environments where cable marking and color-coding improve maintenance and troubleshooting

Key specifications

• Cabling standard: Cat6a
• Data rate support: up to 10000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Cabling technology: 10GBase-T
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall shield with individually shielded pairs)

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network port on your devices until the latch clicks to ensure a secure connection. Use the cable to link network devices such as switches, routers, servers, or desktop computers. For optimal signal integrity, avoid sharp bends, kinks, or excessive tension on the cable and keep it separated from high-voltage power lines to reduce potential interference. Route the cable through cable management channels or a patch panel as needed to maintain an organized installation.

Recommendations

For best results, use this Cat6a S/FTP cable for short-distance 10 Gbit/s links in controlled environments such as data closets or office racks. Verify connector seating and perform link tests after installation to confirm full 10GBase-T operation. When running multiple cables, maintain color-coded schemes and document connections to simplify future maintenance.
