Cavo di rete EFB Elektronik K5516.50 RJ-45 Cat6 50 m arancione

The EFB Elektronik K5516.50 networking cable is a 50 m Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP) Ethernet cable with RJ-45 connectors. Designed for structured cabling in home, office and small data environments, the cable supports high-speed data transmission up to 5000 Mbit/s and features gold-plated RJ-45 plugs to improve contact quality and reduce corrosion. The orange jacket increases visibility for easier identification in patching rooms and cable runs.

Advantages

The cable's S/FTP (S-STP) construction provides individual foil shielding for each twisted pair plus an overall braid, reducing electromagnetic interference and crosstalk compared with unshielded cables. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors offer reliable contact conductivity and enhanced durability. A 50 m length covers longer runs without the need for intermediate patch panels. The bright orange outer sheath simplifies cable management and hazard avoidance in multi-cable installations.

Suitable for

• Wired Ethernet connections in home and office networks
• Patch panels and wall ports requiring Cat6 performance
• Temporary or permanent installations where visibility is important
• Environments with elevated electromagnetic interference where shielded cable is preferred

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6 (S/FTP / S-STP)
• Length: 50 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Data transfer rate: up to 5000 Mbit/s
• Outer colour: orange

How to use

Uncoil the cable carefully to avoid kinks and allow it to rest so any twist memory is reduced before routing. Plug the RJ-45 connectors into the appropriate Ethernet ports on switches, routers or network devices until the connector latches click into place. Route the cable along cable trays, conduits or wall mounts, maintaining gentle bend radii and avoiding sharp bends or crushing. For fixed installations, secure the cable with suitable ties or clips that do not compress the jacket excessively.

Recommendations

Use the shielded Cat6 cable in runs where EMI may affect signal quality, and separate it from high-voltage power lines to preserve performance. Test connections after installation with a cable tester or network analyzer to verify continuity and performance parameters. For distances beyond 50 m between active devices, consider adding a switch or using fiber to maintain optimal data rates.
