Networking Cable EFB Elektronik MK7001.20O RJ-45 Cat6a 20 m Orange

The EFB Elektronik MK7001.20O RJ-45 Cat6a networking cable is a 20 m S/FTP cable designed for high-speed Ethernet connections up to 10 Gbit/s. Constructed to the Cat6a specification, the cable uses individual pair foil shielding with an overall braided shield to reduce crosstalk and electromagnetic interference. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors provide reliable contact and corrosion resistance, while the orange jacket ensures easy identification in patch panels and cable runs.

Advantages

This Cat6a S/FTP cable supports 10GBase-T transmission and is suitable for demanding network environments that require stable high-bandwidth links. The layered shielding improves signal integrity in installations near electrical equipment, and gold-plated contacts maintain low contact resistance over time. The 20 m length allows flexible placement between network devices without using additional patch cords.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbit/s Ethernet links in server rooms and data centers
• Office networks connecting switches, routers and wall outlets
• Structured cabling where reduced interference is required
• Temporary or permanent cable runs where visual identification is helpful

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a
• Cabling technology: 10GBase-T
• Shielding: S/FTP (foil on pairs with braided overall shield)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Max data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Length: 20 m
• Color: Orange

How to use

Route the cable between the two network endpoints, avoiding sharp bends and tight coils that could damage the internal pairs or shielding. Plug the RJ-45 connectors firmly into the corresponding ports on switches, routers or network interfaces until the latch clicks. For best performance, maintain proper bend radius, separate the cable from strong power lines where possible, and ensure connectors are fully inserted to achieve consistent contact with gold-plated contacts.

Recommendations

For optimal 10GBase-T performance, test the installed link with a certified network tester to verify signal quality and shield continuity. When installing in permanent structured cabling, follow local cabling standards and route the cable to avoid prolonged exposure to mechanical stress or heat sources.
