Cable de red EFB Elektronik K8708GR.3 RJ-45 Cat6a 3 m gris

The EFB Elektronik K8708GR.3 RJ-45 Cat6a 3 m Grey is a network patch cable designed for high-speed Ethernet connections. Constructed to the Cat6a specification with S/FTP shielding, this 3 metre cable supports data transmission rates up to 10 000 Mbit/s and is equipped with gold-plated RJ-45 connectors for reliable contact and reduced signal loss. The grey jacket provides a neutral appearance suitable for office, data centre, or home installations.

Advantages

Built to Cat6a performance class, the cable provides improved bandwidth and reduced crosstalk compared with lower-category cables. S/FTP shielding around individual pairs and an overall foil shield enhances immunity to electromagnetic interference, which helps maintain stable connections in environments with multiple electronic devices or dense cabling. Gold-plated RJ-45 plugs ensure consistent contact quality and corrosion resistance over time. The 3 m length offers flexibility for connecting devices within racks, between workstations and switches, or in home networking setups.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links within short to medium runs
• Connecting switches, routers, patch panels, and servers in office or data centre racks
• Home networks requiring high bandwidth for multimedia streaming and gaming
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference where shielded cable is preferred

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (screened foil over twisted pairs with overall shield)
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Contact plating: Gold-plated contacts
• Maximum data rate: up to 10 000 Mbit/s
• Cable length: 3 m
• Colour: Grey

How to use

Choose appropriate routing for the 3 m cable to minimize bends and avoid running parallel to power cables where possible. Insert each RJ-45 plug firmly into the corresponding device port until the latch clicks. Verify link lights on network equipment to confirm physical connectivity, then check network settings on connected devices. For structured cabling, label both ends to identify connected devices and document their locations in your network diagram.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid excessive bending radius and kinking; maintain gentle curves and keep the cable within specified length limits for Cat6a applications. In installations with heavy EMI, use shielded patch panels and ensure proper grounding of the cable shield at one end or according to site grounding practices.
