Networking Cable EFB Elektronik K5538SW.1 RJ-45 Cat6a 1m Black

The EFB Elektronik K5538SW.1 RJ-45 Cat6a 1m Black is a shielded network cable designed for reliable, high-speed Ethernet connections over short distances. Built to Cat6a specifications, the cable supports increased bandwidth and reduced crosstalk compared with earlier cable categories. S/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ-45 contacts improve signal integrity and connection reliability, while the 1 m length and black jacket suit patching between devices in racks, desktops or wall outlets.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction provides individual pair foil shielding plus an overall braided shield to minimize electromagnetic interference and preserve data throughput in congested cabling environments. Gold-plated contacts enhance corrosion resistance and ensure stable electrical contact with RJ-45 ports. The Cat6a rating enables support for higher frequencies and more consistent performance for demanding network applications. A compact 1 m length reduces cable clutter and facilitates tidy installations in server rooms, offices and at home workstations.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and patch panels in small racks
• Linking desktop PCs and networked printers to a local LAN
• Short patch runs in office and home networks
• Environments where reduced interference and reliable uptime are required

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (individual foil pairs + overall braid)
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Contact plating: Gold-plated contacts
• Length: 1 m
• Colour: Black

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector firmly into the corresponding network ports on your devices until you hear a click, ensuring the clip is engaged. Use the cable for point-to-point connections between network equipment such as switches, routers, patch panels and end devices. Avoid tight bending radii and keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources to maintain optimal signal quality. For installations in racks or panels, route the cable neatly and secure it with cable management accessories to prevent stress on the connectors.

Usage recommendations

Choose this Cat6a S/FTP cable for short runs where improved shielding and reliable contact quality matter. For permanent or longer in-wall installations, consider cabling rated specifically for in-wall or plenum use; for longer distances, select appropriate cable categories and lengths to match network design and performance requirements.
