Networking cable EFB Elektronik EC020200176 RJ-45 Cat7 0.15 m Yellow

The EFB Elektronik EC020200176 RJ-45 Cat7 0.15 m Yellow networking cable is a short patch cable designed for high-speed connections in compact setups. As a Cat7 cable with S/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors, it provides reliable signal transfer and reduced electromagnetic interference for demanding local network links. The 0.15 m length is suitable for direct connections between adjacent devices where minimal slack and tidy cabling are required, and the yellow jacket helps with quick visual identification.

Advantages

This Cat7 cable supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is built with S/FTP shielding to protect individual pairs and the overall cable from crosstalk and external noise. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure consistent contact resistance and corrosion resistance for stable signal transmission. The short 0.15 m length minimizes signal degradation over short runs and reduces clutter in dense equipment racks or desktop installations. The yellow outer sheath provides easy colour-coded management in multi-cable environments.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Direct device-to-device patching between nearby network equipment (switch-to-switch, switch-to-server)
• Patch panels and rack-mounted equipment where short, tidy connections are needed
• Desktop or workstation connections where space is limited
• Color-coded cable management in data centers, offices, or AV setups

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat7
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with individually shielded pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold plating
• Maximum supported data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Length: 0.15 m
• Colour: Yellow

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to the network port of the first device and the other RJ-45 end to the second device. Ensure connectors are fully seated to engage the latch and create a stable physical connection. Use the short cable for direct, point-to-point links or between adjacent ports on patch panels and switches. Avoid tight bends near the connector; maintain gentle curves to preserve shielding integrity. For installations in racks or trays, route the cable alongside similarly coloured cables to keep patching organized.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use this cable for short-distance connections up to the specified length and avoid exceeding bending radius recommendations. Keep the cable away from strong EMI sources if possible and replace if connector contacts show visible wear or corrosion.
