Networking Cable EFB Elektronik K8032.7,5 RJ-45 Cat5e 7.5m Yellow

The EFB Elektronik K8032.7,5 networking cable is a 7.5-meter Cat5e patch cable in yellow, designed for structured cabling and point-to-point network connections. The cable uses S/UTP (shielded twisted pair with overall braid) construction and is terminated with gold-plated RJ-45 connectors on both ends. It supports data transmission rates up to 2500 Mbit/s and is suitable for typical Ethernet LAN environments where reduced electromagnetic interference and consistent signal integrity are required.

Advantages

The shielded S/UTP construction helps reduce external electromagnetic interference and crosstalk compared with unshielded cables, contributing to more stable connections in electrically noisy environments. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors improve contact reliability and corrosion resistance for longer-lasting performance. The 7.5 m length provides flexibility for connecting devices across moderate distances while the yellow jacket makes the cable easy to identify in installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs, switches and routers within an office or home network
• Patch panel to switch connections in small server rooms or wiring closets
• Temporary or permanent workstation cabling where cable identification is helpful
• Environments where reduced interference is desirable, such as near power lines or industrial equipment

Key specifications

• Cable standard: Cat5e
• Cable shielding: S/UTP (overall braid with unshielded pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Cable length: 7.5 m
• Colour: Yellow
• Rated data transfer: up to 2500 Mbit/s

How to use

Route the cable between network devices, avoiding sharp bends and tight staples that could damage the jacket or internal pairs. Insert each RJ-45 connector firmly into the corresponding port until it clicks to ensure a secure connection. For installations that rely on shielding, maintain continuity by ensuring connectors and patch panels are properly grounded according to site grounding practices. Test the connection with a network tester or by verifying link/activity LEDs on the connected devices.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines for long distances and keep bend radius above manufacturer-recommended limits. Use the yellow colour for easy identification in patch panels and cable trays, and consider labeling both ends to simplify maintenance and troubleshooting.
