Cavo di rete EFB Elektronik K8056.1 RJ-45 Cat6a 1 m arancione

The EFB Elektronik K8056.1 is a 1 m Cat6A networking patch cable designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications. It features S/FTP construction with PiMF (pairs in metal foil) and AWG27/7 conductors, a 500 MHz rating and complies with Cat6A/Class EA requirements. Both ends are fitted with shielded Hirose TM21 RJ45 plugs (IEC 60603-7-5) and the cable uses TIA/EIA 568B coding. The cable sheath is halogen-free (IEC 60754-2), flame retardant (IEC 60332-1) and produces low smoke (IEC 61034), and it includes a mounted strain relief boot with latch protection.

Advantages

The shielded S/FTP design and PiMF arrangement minimise crosstalk and external interference to support reliable 10 Gigabit Ethernet transmission. Certified to Class EA by GHMT and built to industry fire and smoke standards, the cable offers predictable performance and safety for structured cabling systems. The pre-mounted strain relief boot protects the connector latch and improves durability during installation and repeated use. The orange jacket provides clear visual identification in cabling bundles.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in data centres and server rooms
• Structured cabling installations requiring Cat6A/Class EA performance

How to use

Connect each RJ45 Hirose TM21 plug to the corresponding Ethernet port on your network devices, following TIA/EIA 568B wiring if reterminating is required. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and maintain the recommended bend radius for AWG27-based patch cords. Use the pre-mounted strain relief boot to secure the plug in patch panels or switches and ensure the latch protection is engaged to prevent accidental disconnection. For permanent installations, verify continuity and performance with appropriate cable testers supporting Cat6A/Class EA parameters.

Recommendations

For optimal 10 Gigabit performance, keep cable runs within channel length limits for horizontal cabling, avoid running parallel to unshielded power cabling, and ensure proper termination to maintain shielding continuity.
