Networking Cable EFB Elektronik K8104GR.0,25 RJ-45 Cat6 0.25m Grey

The EFB Elektronik K8104GR.0,25 RJ-45 Cat6 0.25 m Grey is a short patch cable designed for reliable network connections in dense setups and equipment racks. It supports the Cat6 standard and offers data transfer rates up to 5000 Mbit/s. The cable uses U/UTP construction to reduce electromagnetic interference and features gold-plated contacts for improved contact reliability. Its compact 0.25 m length and neutral grey colour make it suitable for tidy, space-constrained installations.

Advantages

The cable’s Cat6 specification ensures stable high-speed data transmission for typical LAN applications. U/UTP shielding helps limit crosstalk and external interference in close-proximity cable runs. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts provide corrosion resistance and consistent electrical contact over repeated insertions. The short 0.25 m length reduces cable clutter and is practical for connecting adjacent ports in switches, patch panels, and network devices.

Suitable for

• Connecting adjacent ports on switches and patch panels
• Short links between network devices in server racks
• Workspace setups where minimal cable slack is required
• Temporary or permanent LAN connections in compact installations

Key specifications

• Cable length: 0.25 m
• Standard: Cat6
• Maximum data transfer rate: up to 5000 Mbit/s
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair with overall braid absent, pair-level unshielded)
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Colour: Grey

How to use

Insert one RJ-45 connector into the network equipment port and the other into the corresponding port on the device you wish to connect. Ensure connectors click into place to confirm secure mating. Use the cable for short patch connections where a 0.25 m length is sufficient; avoid excessive bending near the connector ends and do not stretch the cable beyond its relaxed length. For rack installations, route the cable to minimize strain and avoid tight loops.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, use the cable within typical Cat6 deployment environments and avoid running it parallel to high-voltage power lines. When connecting sensitive equipment in dense racks, choose short patch cords like this 0.25 m cable to reduce excess slack and improve airflow. Inspect connectors periodically for debris and ensure contacts remain clean to maintain reliable data transmission.
