GoodConnections Alcasa 8080-015R Cat8.1 S/FTP Network Cable 1.5m Red

With a blistering 40 Gbit/s data transfer rate and 2000 MHz bandwidth, this Cat8.1 cable is built for the most demanding high-speed networks, from data centers to 4K/8K streaming setups.

Overview

The GoodConnections Alcasa 8080-015R is a premium Cat8.1 patch cable engineered for next-generation Ethernet performance. Measuring 1.5 meters in length, it features S/FTP (S-STP) shielding—each twisted pair is individually foil-shielded, and the entire cable is wrapped in a braided screen—to virtually eliminate crosstalk and electromagnetic interference. The result is a rock-solid connection for 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T applications, with full backward compatibility to Cat6a, Cat6, Cat5e, and Cat5 networks.
