Networking Cable EFB Elektronik RJ45 (X) S/FTP Cat5e Red 5 m

The EFB Elektronik RJ45 (X) S/FTP Cat5e networking cable is a 5 m red cable designed for reliable Ethernet connections. It features SF/UTP (also labeled S/FTP) shielding with both foil and braid, halogen-free materials, and RJ45 connectors with red boots. The cable includes two Hirose TM11 contacts and meets Cat5e specifications for typical Ethernet use.

Advantages

Double shielding (foil and braid) reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, improving signal stability in environments with electrical noise. Halogen-free construction lowers toxic gas emissions in case of fire. The red jacket and matching RJ45 boots make the cable easy to identify in patch panels and cable runs. Pre-terminated RJ45 connectors ensure quick plug-and-play installation.

Suitable for

• Wired Ethernet connections at Cat5e speeds
• Office and data-center patching where interference is a concern
• Network troubleshooting and temporary cabling requiring visible color coding

How to use

Connect each RJ45 connector to the corresponding network ports on your devices (switch, router, PC) until the connector latches audibly. Verify link/activity LEDs on the devices to confirm a successful connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and strong mechanical stress; maintain minimum bend radius recommended for Ethernet cables to preserve performance.

Recommendations

For best performance, use this Cat5e S/FTP cable in mixed-cable environments or near electrical equipment to reduce interference. Avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines for long distances; when crossing power lines, do so at a 90° angle.
