Networking cable EFB Elektronik K8702.25 RJ-45 Cat5e 25 m Yellow

The EFB Elektronik K8702.25 is a 25 m Category 5e (Cat5e) networking cable in yellow, designed for structured cabling and general Ethernet connections. It features S/UTP shielding to reduce external interference and RJ-45 connectors on both ends with gold-plated contacts to maintain reliable signal transmission. The cable supports data transfer rates up to 2500 Mbit/s and is intended for indoor network installations where a visible cable color may assist identification and routing.

Advantages

This Cat5e cable combines S/UTP shielding with standardized RJ-45 terminations to provide stable performance in typical office and home network environments. The gold-plated contacts improve contact resistance and corrosion resistance over time, while the 25 m length eliminates the need for additional patching in medium-distance runs. The yellow jacket increases visibility for cable management and troubleshooting.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers, switches and routers within offices and homes
• Structured cabling runs where a 25 m length is required
• Temporary or permanent setups that benefit from visible cable identification
• Ethernet applications up to Cat5e performance levels

Key specifications

• Cable standard: Cat5e
• Length: 25 m
• Shielding: S/UTP (overall shielded, twisted pairs unshielded)
• Connectors: RJ-45 on both ends with gold-plated contacts
• Maximum data rate: up to 2500 Mbit/s
• Colour: Yellow

How to use

Route the cable between network devices ensuring the length does not exceed the 25 m run for optimal signal quality within typical Cat5e installations. Insert RJ-45 connectors firmly into device ports until they click to ensure proper contact. Avoid tight bending or kinking the cable near connectors and keep the cable away from high-power electrical lines to reduce potential interference. If installing in a structured cable tray or conduit, secure the cable with appropriate fasteners without compressing the jacket.

Recommendations

For best performance, use the cable for 100BASE-TX and Gigabit Ethernet compatible equipment within Cat5e limits and maintain recommended installation practices: observe bend radius, avoid running parallel to power cables, and terminate connectors cleanly. Verify connections with network testing tools after installation.
