Networking cable EFB Elektronik K8708RT.5 RJ-45 Cat6a 5 m Red

The EFB Elektronik K8708RT.5 is a 5 m Cat6a RJ-45 patch cable designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications. Manufactured in Europe, the cable combines Daetwyler CU 7702 flex Cat.7 raw cable and Hirose TM21 connectors to provide S/FTP shielding, gold-plated RJ-45 contacts and a mounted anti-kink grommet. The red cable supports data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and features clearly differentiated core colours for reliable and correct termination.

Advantages

This Cat6a patch cable offers S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, gold-plated RJ-45 connectors for stable contact and corrosion resistance, and a mounted anti-kink grommet to protect the connector and cable bend radius. The cable conductor structure (4 x 2 x AWG26/7) and high-quality components ensure suitability for demanding 10GBase-T networks.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBase-T) connections
• Server rooms and data centres requiring short to medium patching runs
• Office and home networks needing shielded cabling to reduce interference
• 設備連接 where a 5 m red patch cable is useful for identification (colour-coded cabling)

How to use

Connect the EFB Elektronik K8708RT.5 RJ-45 Cat6a cable between compatible RJ-45 ports on switches, routers, network interface cards or patch panels. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks and avoid sharp bends near the connector by routing the cable using the mounted anti-kink grommet. For best performance, use within the specified 5 m run and install in environments that match the shielding requirements.

Recommendations

For optimal signal integrity, avoid prolonged exposure to strong electromagnetic sources near the cable and maintain bend radii above manufacturer recommendations; use the red colour for clear identification in multi-cable installations.
