InLine patchkabel, S/FTP (PiMf), Cat.8.1, 2000MHz, halogenfri, röd, 5m

The InLine Patch Cable S/FTP Cat.8.1 2000MHz Red 5m is a high-performance network patch lead designed for demanding Ethernet environments. Built to support frequencies up to 2000 MHz, this 5 metre cable uses S/FTP shielding to minimize electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. Both ends are fitted with RJ-45 connectors and the halogen-free red jacket provides clear visual identification while meeting safety considerations for installations.

Advantages

The cable's S/FTP design combines an overall foil shield with individually braided shields around each pair, offering improved protection against external noise and ensuring stable signal integrity at high data rates. Cat.8.1 construction supports high-bandwidth applications and short-run backbone or top-of-rack connections. The halogen-free outer jacket reduces toxic emissions in case of fire and the red colour aids quick tracing and cable management in crowded racks or patch panels.

Suitable for

• High-speed data links in data centres and server rooms
• Top-of-rack and switch-to-switch connections with short runs
• High-bandwidth applications such as 25G/40G Ethernet (where supported by equipment)
• Environments requiring easy visual identification of critical links

Key specifications

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network device or switch port and the other RJ-45 plug to the target device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted and latched to maintain reliable contact. For best performance, avoid tight bends and maintain recommended bend radius; keep the cable away from strong sources of electromagnetic noise where possible. Use this cable for short to medium patching runs within racks, between switches, or to connect high-performance endpoints.

Recommendations

The cable is intended for in-building network installations and short-range data links. For maximum throughput, verify that connected equipment and ports support the required Ethernet speeds. Do not exceed the recommended bend radius and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or high temperatures to preserve the jacket and shielding performance.
