Networking cable EFB Elektronik K5525FBL.0,15 RJ-45 Cat6a 0.15 m Blue

The EFB Elektronik K5525FBL.0,15 RJ-45 Cat6a patch cable is a short, high-performance network lead designed for reliable copper Ethernet connections. At 0.15 m length and finished in blue, this cable supports Cat6a transmission characteristics with data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s. The S/FTP (S-STP) shielding structure and gold-plated contacts reduce signal loss and contact corrosion, making the cable suitable for dense rack and patch-panel environments where short, high-quality links are required.

Advantages

This Cat6a cable offers improved shielding compared with unshielded alternatives thanks to the S/FTP (S-STP) construction, which protects individual pairs and the overall cable against electromagnetic interference. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts provide stable contact resistance and resistance to oxidation for long-term mechanical reliability. The very short 0.15 m length minimizes excess cable management and signal reflections in patching applications, while the blue jacket helps with visual identification in structured cabling installations.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections in server cabinets and network racks
• Connecting adjacent ports on switches and patch panels
• High-speed Ethernet links up to Cat6a performance levels
• Cabling where EMI protection is needed in dense installations

Key specifications

• Cable type: Cat6a
• Length: 0.15 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Shielding: S/FTP (S-STP) — shielded twisted pairs with overall braid
• Contacts: gold-plated
• Colour: Blue
• Maximum data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 plug into the corresponding network device port until the latch clicks to ensure a secure connection. Use this 0.15 m cable to link nearby switch ports, patch panel ports, or devices within a rack to reduce slack and maintain tidy cable runs. Avoid sharp bends and maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for copper Ethernet cables to preserve signal integrity. If routing near strong sources of interference, position the cable to make use of its shielding and avoid parallel runs with power lines where possible.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable for short patching distances in structured cabling environments and pair it with properly terminated shielded ports to ensure the S/FTP shielding is effective. Regularly inspect connectors for dirt or damage and replace the cable if the plug latch or contacts show wear.
