Cable de red EFB Elektronik K8074.5 RJ-45 Cat5e 5 m azul

The EFB Elektronik K8074.5 is a 5 m Cat.5e F/UTP patch cable with shielded Hirose TM11 RJ45 plugs on both ends. Designed for 10/100/1000Base-T(X) networks, the blue cable features foil shielding around four twisted pairs (4 x 2 x AWG26/7) and meets TIA/EIA 568B wiring. It is halogen-free and flame-retardant to IEC standards and includes a mounted strain relief boot without latch protection.

Advantages

Foil shielding (F/UTP) provides improved protection against electromagnetic interference compared with unshielded cables, while the shielded Hirose TM11 RJ45 plugs (IEC 60603-7-3) ensure robust connector shielding. The cable construction (AWG26/7) and Cat.5e specification support gigabit Ethernet (1 Gbit/s) at up to 100 MHz. The LSZH (halogen-free, low smoke) jacket meets IEC 60754-2 and IEC 61034 for reduced hazardous emissions during fire, and the IEC 60332-1 rating provides flame retardancy. The mounted strain relief boot reduces stress on the connector without a latch protector for easier handling in tight spaces.

Suitable for

• Wiring desktop PCs, routers and switches in home and small office networks
• Connecting network devices requiring Cat.5e performance and shielding
• Structured cabling runs up to 5 m where EMI protection is needed

Key specifications

• Jacket: LSZH (blue)
• Data rate: 10/100/1000Base-T(X)

How to use

Plug each RJ45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port on your devices (PC, switch, router). Ensure connectors are fully inserted to establish proper shield contact. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends; maintain a bend radius suitable for the 5.4 mm diameter cable and avoid excessive tension. The mounted strain relief boot provides mechanical support at the connector but does not include latch protection, so handle the cable carefully when plugging or unplugging in constrained spaces.

Recommendations

Use this Cat.5e F/UTP cable for short to medium-length links (up to 5 m) where shielded cabling is desirable. Avoid running the cable in direct proximity to large power cables or sources of strong electromagnetic interference; for longer runs or higher frequency requirements consider Cat6/6A alternatives.
