Cable de red EFB Elektronik EC020200042 20 m Cat6a S/FTP negro

The EFB Elektronik EC020200042 20m Cat6a S/FTP networking cable provides a shielded solution for high-speed wired connections. Built to Cat6a specifications, the cable supports data transmission up to 10000 Mbit/s and is fitted with gold-plated RJ-45 connectors to maintain reliable contact and reduce corrosion. The S/FTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, while the 20 meter length and black jacket make it suitable for longer runs in offices, data closets and home networking setups.

Advantages

The cable’s Cat6a rating ensures support for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over appropriate channel lengths. S/FTP construction combines an overall foil shield with individually screened pairs to provide improved protection against external interference and internal crosstalk. Gold-plated RJ-45 plugs offer stable signal transfer and extended connector life. The 20 m length reduces the need for intermediate patch panels in small to medium installations and the black outer sheath provides a neutral, low-visibility appearance.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in office and server environments
• High-bandwidth applications such as video streaming, VoIP and large file transfers
• Structured cabling runs between switches, patch panels and network devices up to 20 m
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference where shielded cabling is preferred

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually shielded pairs)
• Maximum data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Length: 20 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Colour: Black

How to use

Connect one gold-plated RJ-45 connector to a network switch, router or NIC and the other connector to the corresponding device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to provide a secure mechanical and electrical connection. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and heavy compression; maintain bend radius recommended for Cat6a cables to preserve signal integrity. For installations in environments with multiple cables or metal conduits, ensure proper grounding of shielded components according to local cabling standards.

Recommendations

For optimal 10 Gigabit performance, use the cable within a single channel run not exceeding recommended lengths for Cat6a and follow industry cabling practices: avoid running parallel to high-voltage power cables, limit sharp bends, and terminate into compatible shielded connectors and grounded patch panels when required.
