InLine patchkabel slimmad, U/FTP, Cat.8.1, TPE halogenfri, grå 1,5 m

The InLine Patch cable slim U/FTP Cat.8.1 TPE halogen-free grey 1.5m is a compact, high-performance network patch cable designed for short connections in modern structured cabling. It supports the Cat.8.1 specification with U/FTP shielding, comes in a 1.5 m length and features RJ-45 to RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts. The halogen-free TPE jacket provides improved safety and durability while maintaining a slim profile suitable for dense cabling environments.

Advantages

The cable offers Cat.8.1-grade performance for high-speed data transmission in short-reach applications and benefits from pair-level foil shielding (U/FTP) that reduces crosstalk and provides stable signal quality. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts ensure reliable electrical contact and corrosion resistance. The halogen-free TPE outer jacket increases safety in case of fire and provides flexibility for easy routing in tight spaces. Its slim design helps minimize space consumption in patch panels and switch ports.

Suitable for

• Short-distance connections between switches, patch panels and servers in data centers or wiring closets
• High-speed Ethernet links where Cat.8.1 performance and shielding are required
• Environments requiring halogen-free materials for improved safety
• Tightly packed cable runs where a slim profile eases installation

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.8.1
• Shielding: U/FTP (overall unshielded with foil shielded pairs)
• Length: 1.5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 — both ends
• Contact finish: Gold-plated contacts
• Jacket material: Halogen-free TPE (thermoplastic elastomer)
• Colour: Grey

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network device or patch panel port and the other RJ-45 plug to the corresponding port of the switch, server or network outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. For optimal performance, avoid excessive bending or kinking of the cable and keep cable runs within recommended lengths for Cat.8.1 short-reach applications.

Recommendations

Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and high-tension pulls. When installing in dense racks or patch panels, label both ends for easy identification. Use the cable for short-reach, high-speed links consistent with Cat.8.1 recommendations and pair it with compatible shielded equipment and properly grounded racks to maintain shielding effectiveness.
