Networking cable EFB Elektronik MK6001W.5G Cat6a S/FTP (S‑STP) Grey 5 m RJ-45–RJ-45

The EFB Elektronik MK6001W.5G is a shielded Cat6a RJ45 patch cable in grey with a 5 m length, designed for reliable 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections. It uses S/FTP (S-STP) shielding to reduce interference and has RJ45 connectors on both ends; one connector is moulded at a 90° angle to simplify routing in tight spaces.

Advantages

The S/FTP (S-STP) construction provides improved protection against electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, supporting stable high-speed data transfer up to 10 Gbit/s. The slim moulded grommet eases insertion into crowded patch panels or tight ports, while the angled RJ45 connector allows convenient cable management and reduced strain at the connector.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet backbone and server connections
• High-density patch panels and network racks
• Workstations and network devices requiring shielded connections
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a
• Length: 5 m
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with individually foil-shielded pairs)
• Connectors: RJ45 to RJ45 (one end 90° angled)
• Maximum data rate: 10 000 Mbit/s
• Colour: Grey

How to use

Insert the straight RJ45 connector and the 90° angled connector into the corresponding network ports until the latch clicks. Route the cable through cable channels or along rack sides, using the angled end where space behind the device is limited. Ensure both ends are fully engaged to guarantee correct electrical contact and stable link establishment.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat6a S/FTP patch cable in shielded or grounded installations and avoid sharp bends with radii smaller than the cable diameter. Keep cable runs away from strong power sources and maintain proper strain relief at connector points.
