Verkkokaapeli EFB Elektronik K8108SW.5 RJ-45 Cat6a 5 m musta

The EFB Elektronik K8108SW.5 RJ-45 Cat6a networking cable is a 5 m black patch lead designed for high-speed Ethernet connections. It meets Cat6a specifications and supports data rates up to 10,000 Mbit/s over 10GBase-T networks. The cable uses U/UTP construction to minimise electromagnetic interference, and gold-plated RJ-45 contacts provide reliable signal transfer and corrosion resistance. Its flexible jacket and standard RJ-45 terminations make it suitable for desktop, rack and home networking installations.

Advantages

This Cat6a cable offers a balance of performance and simplicity: certified Cat6a performance for 10GBase-T, U/UTP construction to reduce crosstalk, and gold-plated RJ-45 contacts for consistent conductivity. The 5 m length provides reach for most office and home layouts while keeping signal integrity. A black outer jacket ensures a neutral appearance that integrates with existing cabling and equipment.

Suitable for

• 10GBase-T Ethernet connections between switches, routers and networked devices
• Connecting desktop computers, NAS devices and media players to local networks
• Patch cabling in data cabinets, server racks and wall outlets
• Home office and small business network installations

Key specifications

• Cable type: Cat6a (10GBase-T compatible)
• Length: 5 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair with unshielded overall)
• Contacts: Gold-plated
• Colour: Black
• Maximum supported data rate: up to 10,000 Mbit/s

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network ports on your devices or patch panels until the latch clicks into place. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and pinch points; maintain gentle curves to preserve internal pair geometry. For best 10G performance, connect directly between compatible equipment or via switches and patch panels rated for Cat6a. Test the link speed after installation to confirm negotiated data rates and verify proper connectivity.

Recommendations

Avoid running the cable parallel and close to mains power lines to reduce potential interference. For permanent or high-density installations, organise cables with ties or trays and label both ends for easy identification. Replace cables that show visible damage to the jacket or connectors to maintain reliable network performance.
