Networking Cable EFB Elektronik RJ45 Patchkabel S/FTP Cat.6 LSZH 0.15m Yellow

The EFB Elektronik RJ45 Patchkabel S/FTP Cat.6 LSZH 0.15m in yellow is a short patch cable designed for reliable Ethernet connections in patch panels, switch ports and network devices where minimal cable length is required. It follows the Cat.6 standard and uses S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference, while gold‑plated RJ45 connectors ensure stable signal transfer and improved contact resistance. The LSZH jacket limits smoke and hazardous gas emission in indoor environments and the high‑visibility yellow colour helps with fast identification and cable management.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction provides individual foil shielding for pairs plus an overall braid to improve resistance to external interference and crosstalk. Cat.6 performance supports higher bandwidth and more reliable data transmission compared with lower category cables. Gold‑plated contacts reduce oxidation and maintain low contact resistance over time. The LSZH outer sheath offers reduced smoke and toxic gas generation in case of fire, compliant with environments where low‑smoke materials are preferred. The short 0.15 m length minimises excess cable clutter and signal attenuation in dense patching scenarios.

Suitable for

• Short connections between patch panels and switches in server rooms and network cabinets
• Linking network ports on rack-mounted equipment where space is limited
• Temporary or permanent connections at workstations and AV racks requiring clear colour coding
• Environments where low‑smoke, low‑toxicity materials are specified for safety

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.6 performance for Gigabit Ethernet and compatible applications
• Shielding: S/FTP (individual pair foil + overall braid)
• Length: 0.15 m
• Connectors: 8‑position RJ45 to RJ45 with gold‑plated contacts
• Jacket material: LSZH (low smoke zero halogen)
• Colour: Yellow for visual identification

How to use

Insert each RJ45 connector fully into the corresponding Ethernet port until the latch engages. For patching in racks or switch panels, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and avoid running alongside high‑power electrical cabling to reduce potential interference. Use the short 0.15 m length for direct device-to-device or panel-to-port connections where minimal slack is required. Inspect connectors for secure seating and test the link using network diagnostic tools or switch port indicators to confirm connectivity.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, avoid bending the cable tightly at the connector end and maintain the manufacturerʼs recommended minimum bend radius. Use the yellow colour to implement a consistent colour‑coding scheme in patch panels for faster troubleshooting. When installing in critical environments, combine with proper grounding and cable management to preserve shielding effectiveness.
