Cavo di rete EFB Elektronik K8560BL.20 RJ-45 Cat6a 20 m blu

The EFB Elektronik K8560BL.20 is a Cat6A Ethernet patch cable, 20 m in length, designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks. It features S/FTP construction (4 pairs, PiMF) with AWG27/7 conductors, a 500 MHz rating and two shielded Hirose TM31 RJ45 plugs with mounted strain relief boots and latch protection. The cable meets industry flame retardant and halogen-free standards and is coded for TIA/EIA 568B wiring.

Advantages

This Cat6a patch cable supports data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and offers enhanced protection against electromagnetic interference thanks to overall shielding and individually foil-wrapped pairs (S/FTP). The 500 MHz bandwidth and PiMF pair design provide stable high-speed performance over the 20 m length. LSZH jacket reduces smoke emission and the shielded Hirose TM31 RJ45 plugs with strain relief ensure reliable connector contact and mechanical durability.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBase-T) network connections
• Server rooms and data centers requiring shielded cabling
• High-speed LAN links between switches, routers and workstations
• Environments where low smoke and halogen-free materials are required

Key specifications

How to use

Connect each RJ45 plug to the corresponding network ports on your devices (switch, router, NIC). Ensure the plugs are fully inserted until the latch engages; the mounted strain relief boot protects the cable bend and connector. For TIA/EIA 568B installations, use the cable as supplied for consistent pair assignment. Avoid sharp bends and excessive force on the cable to maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

For optimal performance at 10 Gbit/s, keep cable runs within recommended channel lengths and avoid routing the cable parallel to high-power electrical lines. Use shielded connectors and proper grounding in installations where EMI is a concern.
