Networking cable EFB Elektronik K8107WS.3 RJ-45 Cat6a 3 m White

The EFB Elektronik K8107WS.3 RJ-45 Cat6a networking cable is a shielded U/UTP cable designed for reliable wired network connections. With a 3 m length and white jacket, the cable provides up to 10 000 Mbit/s data transfer speed using standard RJ-45 terminations with gold-plated contacts for improved electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance. It is intended for use where stable high-speed Ethernet links are required between devices such as switches, routers, patch panels and networked equipment.

Advantages

This Cat6a cable supports high data rates and reduced crosstalk compared with lower-category cables, ensuring consistent throughput for demanding network traffic. The RJ-45 connectors feature gold-plated contacts to maintain low contact resistance and long-term signal quality. The white outer jacket offers a neutral aesthetic for office, server room or residential installations while the 3 m length provides flexibility for short to medium runs without excess cable slack.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers, laptops and workstations to switches or routers
• Patching between rack-mounted network switches and patch panels
• High-speed data transfers in office and small data center environments
• Home networking where a discreet white cable is preferred

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a (augmented Category 6)
• Shielding: U/UTP configuration
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Maximum data rate: up to 10 000 Mbit/s
• Length: 3 m
• Colour: white

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the Ethernet port of your network device and the other to the target port on a switch, router or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the retaining clip engages to prevent accidental disconnection. For optimal performance, avoid tight bends and sharp kinks in the cable; maintain gentle curves and keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources or high-voltage power lines that could introduce interference.

Usage recommendations

For stable 10 Gbit/s links, use this cable for distances within typical horizontal cabling limits (3 m here) and pair it with compatible Cat6a-capable network equipment. Inspect connectors periodically for debris or damage and replace the cable if the jacket or contacts show signs of wear. When planning installations, allow some slack to avoid tension on connectors and route the cable to minimize exposure to physical stress.
