Equip Cat 8.1 S/FTP (PIMF) Patch Cable, LSOH, 1.0m, Grey

The Equip Cat 8.1 S/FTP (PIMF) Patch Cable is engineered for ultrahigh-speed data transmission and designed to support 40GBase-T environments. Constructed from quality materials and fully tested to industry standards, this 1.0 m grey patch cable features S/FTP shielding to minimize crosstalk and external interference, plus gold-plated RJ-45 connectors for reliable contact and signal integrity.

Advantages

This Cat 8.1 cable provides higher bandwidth and an improved signal-to-noise margin compared with lower-category cabling, enabling stable and low-error performance in demanding network scenarios. The S/FTP (PIMF) shielding improves resistance to electromagnetic interference, while the gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure durable, corrosion-resistant connections suitable for frequent plugging cycles.

Suitable for

• High-speed data centres and server racks
• 40GBase-T connections and aggregation links
• Backbone cabling in enterprise LANs
• Environments requiring low interference and high signal integrity

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to the network port of your switch, server, or NIC and the other connector to the corresponding port on the destination device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Avoid tight bends or kinks; maintain the cable bend radius recommended by the equipment manufacturer to preserve performance. For structured cabling, route the cable using appropriate cable management to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

Use this Cat 8.1 S/FTP patch cable for short links where 40G performance and minimal interference are required. Do not exceed the maximum channel length defined for 40GBase-T in your network design; for longer runs, consider appropriate structured-cabling components and testing after installation.
