Networking Cable EFB Elektronik MK6001.20R RJ-45 Cat6a 20m Red

The EFB Elektronik MK6001.20R is a 20 m shielded Cat6a RJ45 patch cable designed for reliable 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections. It features S/FTP shielding to minimise electromagnetic interference and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors for stable contact. The moulded slim grommet reduces the connector profile and eases insertion in confined spaces while the red jacket provides clear visual identification.

Advantages

The cable supports Cat6a performance for 10GBase-T networks and includes full S/FTP shielding to protect against crosstalk and external noise. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts improve corrosion resistance and signal transfer. The slim, moulded grommet simplifies routing and insertion in tight patch panels or racks without adding bulk.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks (10GBase-T)
• Server rooms and data centres
• Office and home network connections requiring high data rates
• Patch panels and switches with limited clearance

Key specifications

• Length: 20 m
• Standard: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Colour: Red
• Supported cabling technology: 10GBase-T

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to your switch, router or network interface and the other end to the target device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain recommended bend radius for Cat6a to preserve signal integrity. Use cable management clips or Velcro ties to organise runs and prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

The cable is intended for indoor use in structured cabling environments; avoid exposure to direct sunlight, moisture and temperatures outside the operating range of connected devices. For permanent installations, verify compatibility with your patch panels and allow sufficient slack for maintenance.
