Networking cable EFB Elektronik K8708BL.3 RJ-45 Cat6a 3 m Blue

The EFB Elektronik K8708BL.3 RJ-45 Cat6a networking cable is a 3 m blue cable engineered for stable, high-speed wired connections. It uses Cat6a specification and S/FTP shielding to reduce external electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors to ensure reliable contact. The cable supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is suitable for modern network environments that require consistent performance over short to medium runs.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding construction improves resistance to electromagnetic interference, while the Cat6a standard enables high bandwidth and reduced signal loss. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors provide corrosion resistance and stable electrical contact. A 3 m length offers flexibility for desktop, wall-mounted, or rack connections without excess cable slack. The blue jacket provides clear visual identification within structured cabling installations.

Suitable for

• Wired home networks and small office setups
• Connecting PCs, switches, routers and networked peripherals
• High-bandwidth applications such as streaming, online gaming and large file transfers
• Structured cabling runs in data cabinets and workstations

Key specifications

• Cable type: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually shielded pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Length: 3 m
• Maximum supported data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Colour: Blue

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to the network port of your device and the other to a switch, router, or wall outlet designed for Ethernet. Ensure connectors click into place to confirm a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends, kinks or tight compression points that could affect shielding and signal integrity. For best performance, keep the cable separate from power lines and high-interference sources.

Recommendations

For reliable high-speed connections, use this Cat6a cable for runs up to its length and avoid excessive bending radii. When integrating into structured cabling, label both ends and test link performance with a cable tester after installation to verify continuity, pair integrity and shielding effectiveness.
