InLine patchkabel slimmad, U/FTP, Cat.8.1, TPE halogenfri, grå 0,5 m

The InLine Patch cable slim U/FTP Cat.8.1 TPE halogen-free grey 0.5m is a short patch cable engineered for high-speed data transmission in dense network environments. Its U/FTP Cat.8.1 specification supports elevated bandwidth and reduced crosstalk, while the slim cable design and two RJ-45 connectors with gold plating provide reliable contact and compact routing in racks, patch panels and workstations. The halogen-free TPE sheath combines flexibility with enhanced safety characteristics for indoor installations.

Advantages

This slim U/FTP Cat.8.1 cable offers improved signal integrity at high frequencies, minimized alien crosstalk through foil-shielded pairs, and secure connectivity via gold-plated RJ-45 plugs. The short 0.5 m length reduces cable clutter and insertion loss for close-proximity links. The halogen-free TPE jacket provides flexibility, abrasion resistance and lower smoke/toxicity properties compared with conventional PVC, making it appropriate for indoor cabling where material safety is a consideration.

Suitable for

• Short links between patch panel and switch in server racks
• Connections in dense rack environments or network consolidation points
• High-speed LAN segments requiring Cat.8.1 performance
• Workstation-to-wall outlet connections where a compact cable is needed

Key specifications

• Cable category: U/FTP Cat.8.1
• Cable length: 0.5 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Outer jacket material: halogen-free TPE
• Colour: grey
• Slim cable profile for tight routing

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector fully into the corresponding port until a click is felt to ensure a secure mechanical and electrical connection. Use the 0.5 m cable for short-distance interconnections such as switch-to-patch-panel or patch panel-to-server links to maintain optimal signal levels. Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid placing it under mechanical strain; maintain bend radii consistent with typical Ethernet cable handling to preserve performance.

Recommendations

For best results, use this slim Cat.8.1 patch cable in direct, short connections within racks and cabinets. Avoid running the cable alongside high-power electrical lines for extended distances, and ensure ports are rated for Cat.8 or compatible higher-frequency operation to realize the cable's performance benefits.
