Networking cable EFB Elektronik RJ45 S/FTP Cat6a RJ-45 RJ-45 0.5 m Red

The EFB Elektronik RJ45 S/FTP Cat6a networking cable is a 0.5 m patch lead designed for high-speed Ethernet connections. It features S/FTP (PIMF) shielding, Cat6a performance up to 1000 MHz and halogen-free jacketing. Both ends are fitted with RJ-45 connectors and the cable is coded to TIA/EIA 568B wiring standard. The bright red colour helps with quick identification in structured cabling environments.

Advantages

S/FTP PIMF construction provides improved protection against external electromagnetic interference and crosstalk compared with unshielded cables. Cat6a specification and 1000 MHz bandwidth enable reliable Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet links for short runs. The halogen-free outer jacket reduces hazardous fumes in case of fire. Standard RJ-45 terminations ensure plug-and-play compatibility with network devices and patch panels.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between switches, routers and network ports
• High-density patch panels and data centre top-of-rack links
• Environments requiring identifiable, colour-coded cabling

Key specifications

• Length: 0.5 m
• Type: S/FTP (PIMF) shielded twisted pair
• Category: Cat6a, 1000 MHz
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 (TIA/EIA 568B coded)
• Jacket: Halogen-free
• Colour: Red

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into your network device and the other into the corresponding switch, patch panel or router port. Ensure both ends are fully inserted until the latch clicks. For best performance keep the cable length within the specified 0.5 m and avoid sharp bends or tight kinks. Follow standard network installation practices when combining with shielded infrastructure, including proper grounding where required.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6a S/FTP patch cable for short, high-speed links where reduced interference and clear colour identification are required; integrate with shielded racks and grounding for optimal EMI protection.
