Cat. 8.1 patchkabel 1 m svart

In a busy data center, a network engineer connects a high-speed switch to a server using this 1-meter Cat. 8.1 patch cable. The black S/FTP cable ensures a stable 40 Gigabit Ethernet link, with each twisted pair individually shielded and the whole bundle screened to eliminate crosstalk. The gold-plated RJ45 connectors snap securely into place, and the stranded copper conductors remain flexible even in tight cable management arms.

Why choose it

This patch cable delivers the full performance of Cat. 8.1 in a short, manageable length. The S/FTP construction provides excellent protection against electromagnetic interference, making it ideal for high-density installations. The stranded copper conductors offer flexibility without sacrificing signal integrity, and the gold-plated connectors resist corrosion for long-term reliability.

Ideal use cases

• Data center server-to-switch connections
• High-speed workstation links in office networks
• Gaming setups requiring maximum bandwidth
• PoE++ device connections (e.g., high-power access points)

Good to know

The cable is backward compatible with all previous Ethernet categories, so you can use it in mixed environments. Its 1-meter length reduces clutter and signal attenuation. The PVC jacket is durable and suitable for indoor use. Operating temperature range: -20°C to 60°C.
