Networking Cable EFB Elektronik MK7001.5Y RJ-45 Cat6a 5m Yellow

The EFB Elektronik MK7001.5Y RJ-45 Cat6a networking cable is a 5 m S/FTP cable designed for reliable high-speed Ethernet connections. Compliant with Cat6a and 10GBase-T cabling technology, it supports up to 10000 Mbit/s data rates and is fitted with gold-plated RJ-45 connectors to improve signal conductivity and resist corrosion. The yellow jacket provides easy visual identification in crowded cable installations and basic mechanical protection for indoor use.

Advantages

This Cat6a S/FTP cable combines improved electromagnetic protection with the capability to carry 10GBase-T traffic over short and medium distances, helping to reduce crosstalk and external interference. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors enhance contact reliability and durability. The 5 m length is convenient for desktop, rack-to-desk and small office setups where a direct, untangled run is preferred. The bright yellow sheath makes cable routes easier to trace during installation and maintenance.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links within offices, server rooms and workstations
• Connecting switches, routers and network interface cards (NICs) over short to medium distances
• Structured cabling runs where S/FTP shielding is required to limit EMI
• Desktop and home office setups needing visible, color-coded cabling

Key specifications

• Cabling standard: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (shielded twisted pairs with overall foil shield)
• Cabling technology: 10GBase-T
• Maximum supported data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Length: 5 m
• Color: yellow

How to use

Plug the gold-plated RJ-45 connectors into the Ethernet ports of your devices, ensuring the connectors click into place. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress; maintain separation from strong power sources where possible to preserve shielding effectiveness. For best performance, use this cable for direct device-to-device connections or within structured cabling runs designed for Cat6a performance. Inspect connectors for debris before use and confirm link speed and duplex settings on connected devices after installation.

Recommendations

For optimal 10GBase-T performance, keep cable runs within recommended distances for Cat6a standards, avoid excessive bending radii, and maintain segregation from high-voltage power lines. Use color-coded management practices to simplify maintenance and troubleshooting.
