Networking Cable EFB Elektronik K8708GE.20 RMS45 RJ-45 Cat6a 20 m Yellow

The EFB Elektronik K8708GE.20 RMS45 RJ-45 Cat6a 20 m Yellow networking cable is a Cat6a-class cable designed for high-speed wired connections over a 20 metre run. It supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is built with S/FTP shielding and gold-plated contacts to reduce electromagnetic interference and ensure stable signal transmission. The cable uses RMS45 and RJ-45 connectors and comes in yellow for easy identification within structured cabling environments.

Advantages

The cable’s Cat6a specification enables support for high bandwidth applications and improved headroom compared with lower-category cables. S/FTP shielding provides double protection against external noise by combining an overall foil with individually shielded pairs, helping to maintain signal integrity in electrically noisy environments. Gold-plated contacts improve corrosion resistance and contact reliability over time. The 20 m length covers longer runs without the need for intermediate patching points, and the yellow colour enhances visibility for cable management and fault finding.

Suitable for

• High-speed Ethernet links up to 10 Gbps in office and data centre installations
• Structured cabling runs where a 20 m patch or permanent link is required
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference where S/FTP shielding is beneficial
• Visible cable routes or labelled runs where yellow colour aids identification

How to use

Route the EFB Elektronik K8708GE.20 along the intended run, avoiding sharp bends and sources of mechanical strain. Insert the RMS45 or RJ-45 connector into the corresponding port until it clicks to ensure a secure connection. For permanent installations, verify compatibility with patch panels, keystone jacks or network devices beforehand. After connection, test the link with appropriate network test equipment to confirm the expected throughput and signal quality.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines for extended distances and maintain the manufacturer’s recommended bend radius. Use this Cat6a S/FTP cable for 10 Gbps-capable links within the 20 m length and perform regular inspections of connectors for dust or corrosion to preserve reliable connectivity.
