Networking Cable EFB Elektronik RJ-45 Black Cat6 5m

The EFB Elektronik RJ-45 Black Cat6 5m networking cable is a shielded data cable designed to transmit Ethernet signals between devices across home and office networks. Compliant with Cat6 performance characteristics, the cable supports high-speed data transfer and low-latency connections over a 5 meter length. The black jacket and molded RJ-45 connectors provide a straightforward, durable option for linking switches, routers, computers, game consoles and other networked equipment.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable offers improved bandwidth and signal integrity compared with earlier twisted-pair standards, enabling reliable transmission for demanding applications. The RJ-45 terminations ensure secure plug-in connections and consistent contact. The 5 m length balances flexibility and minimal excess cable for desktop and media centre setups, while the outer sheath protects internal conductors from wear in normal use.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktops, laptops and workstations to a router or switch
• Wired connections for gaming consoles and streaming devices
• Small office and home network installations requiring Cat6 performance
• Patch connections between network equipment in racks or cabinets

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6 Ethernet cable suitable for gigabit and multi-gigabit networks
• Length: 5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Colour: Black outer jacket
• Cable construction: twisted-pair copper conductors with insulating sheath for each pair
• Typical supported speeds: up to 10 Gbps at appropriate distances under Cat6 standards

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of your device and the other into the corresponding port on your router, switch or modem. Ensure connectors latch into place for a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and pinch points; leave gentle curves where the cable must change direction. For best results with high-speed links, keep the cable length appropriate to the installation and avoid running parallel to strong electrical sources where possible.

Usage recommendations

Use this Cat6 cable for reliable wired network links when stable throughput and low latency are required. For installations requiring longer runs or shielded environments, consider cables with different construction or higher category ratings. Inspect connectors periodically and replace the cable if the jacket or plugs become damaged.
