Networking cable EFB Elektronik MK7001.15R RJ-45 Cat6a 15 m Red

The EFB Elektronik MK7001.15R is a 15 m Cat6a networking cable designed for 10GBase-T environments and high-speed data transmission up to 10000 Mbit/s. Constructed with S/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors, the cable provides consistent signal integrity and reduced electromagnetic interference over longer runs. Its red jacket offers clear visual identification in patch panels and structured cabling installations.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding limits crosstalk and external interference for stable performance in busy network environments. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors improve contact reliability and resist oxidation for long-term use. The Cat6a specification and 10GBase-T support enable higher bandwidth applications while maintaining backward compatibility with Gigabit Ethernet. A 15 m length covers typical office or equipment-room distances without the need for additional couplers.

Suitable for

• Connecting network switches to wall outlets or patch panels in offices and data closets
• High-bandwidth applications such as video streaming, VoIP, and network backups
• Server racks and networking equipment that require shielded connections to reduce interference
• Home labs and small data centers where clearly color-coded cabling helps organization

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a
• Length: 15 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Cabling technology: 10GBase-T
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually shielded pairs)
• Maximum data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Color: Red

How to use

Uncoil the cable carefully to avoid kinks and verify connectors are clean before insertion. Insert the RJ-45 plug firmly into the network port until it clicks; ensure both ends are securely connected to compatible RJ-45 ports on network devices. Route the cable along cable management paths or through cable trays to minimize bending and avoid running parallel to strong electrical sources to reduce potential interference. When disconnecting, press the connector latch and pull gently on the plug rather than the cable jacket.

Recommendations

For optimal performance maintain bend radius recommended by Cat6a standards, avoid tight bends and excessive tension, and keep the cable away from large power cables or fluorescent lighting. Use color-coded cabling practices to simplify maintenance and troubleshooting in multi-cable installations.
