EFB Elektronik K5547GR.0.15 Cat6a U/FTP Networking Patch Cable, RJ-45, 0.15 m, Grey

The EFB Elektronik K5547GR.0.15 is a high-performance Cat6a networking patch cable engineered for reliable and high-speed data transmission. Measuring 0.15 meters in length, this cable is specifically designed for short-distance connections where signal integrity and space management are critical. It features U/FTP shielding to effectively minimize electromagnetic interference, ensuring stable connectivity in demanding professional network environments.

Advantages

This patch cable utilizes high-quality copper conductors to support a bandwidth of up to 500 MHz, making it suitable for high-speed data applications. The inclusion of gold-plated contacts on the RJ-45 connectors enhances signal conductivity and prevents corrosion over time. The cable is constructed with a durable PVC sheath and includes integrated locking lever protection to prevent accidental disconnection and damage to the plug mechanism. Its compact design and flexible build make it an excellent choice for organized cable management in dense server racks.

Suitable for

• Structured building cabling
• Industrial Ethernet environments
• Data center server racks
• Office network equipment connections
• Short-distance patch panel links

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not intended for long-distance networking applications due to its 0.15-meter length. It is also not designed for outdoor use or environments where the cable will be exposed to extreme moisture or direct sunlight, as the PVC jacket is intended for indoor structured cabling.

Key specifications

• Cable standard: Cat6a
• Shielding: U/FTP (STP)
• Length: 0.15 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45 (Straight)
• Contact plating: Gold
• Conductor material: Copper
• Sheath material: PVC
• Wiring standard: 1:1 (TIA/EIA 568B)
• Operating temperature: -20 to 55 °C

How to use

To use the cable, simply insert the RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network port on your device or patch panel until the locking lever clicks into place. Ensure that the cable is not bent beyond its minimum bend radius to maintain optimal performance. The 1:1 wiring configuration ensures compatibility with standard Ethernet hardware. When disconnecting, press the locking lever down gently to release the plug from the port.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required length to ensure 0.15 meters is sufficient for your setup.
• Ensure your network hardware supports Cat6a standards for maximum performance.
• Check the port space availability to accommodate the straight RJ-45 connectors.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance in server racks, ensure that the cable is routed through cable management arms or organizers to prevent strain on the connectors and to maintain proper airflow within the cabinet.
