Networking Cable EFB Elektronik EC020200271 RJ-45 Cat8.1 3 m Green

The EFB Elektronik EC020200271 RJ-45 Cat8.1 networking cable is a 3 m S/FTP patch cable designed for high-speed wired Ethernet connections. It features RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts and shielding that meets Cat8.1 requirements, enabling reliable transmission and reduced electromagnetic interference for demanding network environments. The cable's green jacket provides clear visual identification in patch panels and structured cabling installations.

Advantages

This Cat8.1 S/FTP cable supports very high data rates and improved signal integrity thanks to its shielded construction. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts ensure low contact resistance and corrosion resistance for stable long-term connections. The 3 m length offers flexibility for rack, switch, and workstation connections while minimizing excess slack. The bright green colour simplifies cable management and identification in multi-cable setups.

Suitable for

• High-speed server-to-switch connections in data centers
• Backbone and horizontal cabling where shielded performance is required
• Workstation and desktop connections needing stable 10 Gbps+ links
• Environments with elevated electromagnetic interference where S/FTP shielding helps maintain signal quality

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat8.1 (shielded)
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with individually foil‑shielded pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 on both ends with gold-plated contacts
• Maximum data rate: up to 40000 Mbit/s
• Length: 3 m
• Colour: Green

How to use

Insert the RJ-45 connectors into compatible Ethernet ports on switches, routers, network cards, or patch panels until the latch clicks. Use this cable for direct device-to-device links or between patch panels and network equipment. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; maintain the recommended bend radius to preserve shielding and internal pair geometry. For best performance, connect only to ports and equipment that support comparable speeds and shielded cabling.

Usage recommendations

For optimal signal integrity, avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines and maintain separation from strong electromagnetic sources. Use appropriate cable management (labels, ties, and trays) to keep the green cable visible for quick identification. Verify network equipment settings and cabling standards compatibility when deploying at maximum supported data rates.
