DeLOCK Network Extension Cable RJ45 plug to RJ45 jack Cat.8.1 S/FTP 1 m black

The DeLOCK Network Extension Cable RJ45 plug to RJ45 jack Cat.8.1 S/FTP 1 m black is a 1 metre extension cable with RJ45 connectors designed for high-speed Ethernet connections. It complies with Cat.8.1 specifications and uses S/FTP shielding to reduce interference, supporting data transfer rates up to 40 Gbps and frequencies up to 2 GHz for 25/40GBASE-T applications.

Advantages

This Cat.8.1 extension cable provides a compact and flexible solution to extend or reconnect RJ45 ports while maintaining high signal integrity thanks to S/FTP shielding. Its 1 m length and standard RJ45 plug-to-jack configuration simplify installation in racks, patch panels or between devices without altering existing cabling infrastructure.

Suitable for

• Extending or relocating RJ45 network ports
• 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T Ethernet links
• High-performance network equipment in racks and patch panels
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Cable type: Cat.8.1
• Shielding: S/FTP (shielded foil with individually shielded pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 plug to RJ-45 jack
• Length: 1 m
• Data rate: up to 40 Gbps (40000 Mbit/s)
• Frequency: up to 2 GHz
• Colour: Black

How to use

Insert the RJ45 plug into the originating network device or patch panel port and connect the RJ45 jack to the target device's cable or port. Ensure connectors are fully seated and routed to avoid sharp bends. Use the cable to extend or adapt existing RJ45 connections while maintaining Cat.8.1 link requirements for optimal performance.

Recommendations

For best results, use this cable within short horizontal or rack patching runs consistent with Cat.8.1 deployment practices, avoid excessive bending or crushing, and verify link speed and negotiation on connected devices to confirm 25/40GBASE-T operation.
