Networking Cable EFB Elektronik RJ45 90°S/STP Cat6 RJ-45 Cat7 3 m Grey

The EFB Elektronik RJ45 90°S/STP Cat6 networking cable is a 3 m grey cable engineered for reliable high-speed data transmission in wired networks. Combining Category 6 signal performance with Cat7-class construction and S/FTP shielding, this cable is designed to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk in dense or noise-prone installations. Both ends terminate in RJ-45 connectors, one or both featuring a 90° angled housing to simplify routing in constrained spaces and behind equipment.

Advantages

The shielded S/FTP design offers superior protection against external interference compared with unshielded cables, improving signal integrity over the 3 m length. The Cat6 performance specification together with Cat7-grade shielding supports stable gigabit and higher-speed connections for typical LAN applications. The 90° RJ-45 connector reduces stress on the cable and connector when installed close to walls, racks or equipment, facilitating tidier cable management. The neutral grey jacket provides a discreet appearance in office and data center environments.

Suitable for

• Home and office gigabit Ethernet connections
• Connecting switches, routers and patch panels in racks or wall-mounted cabinets
• Environments with moderate electromagnetic interference where shielded cable is preferred
• Installations requiring right-angle connectors to save space and prevent bending

Key specifications

• Cable length: 3 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Connector orientation: 90° angled connector(s)
• Shielding: S/FTP (shielded overall with individually shielded pairs)
• Category performance: Cat6 construction with Cat7-grade shielding characteristics
• Outer colour: Grey

How to use

Route the cable between networking devices ensuring the 90° connector is oriented to fit the available space without forcing the connector or bending the cable sharply. Insert the RJ-45 plugs fully into the device ports until they click into place. When using the shielded cable, ensure both connected devices or patch panels provide proper grounding for the shielding to be effective. Avoid tight loops or kinks; secure the cable with appropriate cable ties or management accessories to maintain performance and prevent strain on connectors.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use this shielded cable in installations with potential EMI sources (near power distribution lines or dense electronic equipment) and connect to shielded ports or grounded patch panels where available. Keep the length appropriate for the run—this 3 m cable is suited for short to medium connections within racks, between wall outlets and nearby devices, or behind furniture where a 90° connector improves fit.
