Networking Cable Alcasa 8080-100Y 10m Cat8.1 S/FTP Yellow

The Networking Cable Alcasa 8080-100Y 10m Cat8.1 S/FTP Yellow is a 10-metre Ethernet patch cable built to the Cat8.1 standard and fitted with S/FTP shielding. It supports very high data transfer rates up to 40000 Mbit/s and uses RJ-45 connectors with gold plating for reliable contact and reduced corrosion. The cable’s yellow jacket improves visibility for identification within structured cabling or desktop setups and is suitable for home and office networking where high bandwidth and signal integrity are required.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding provides individual pair foil plus an overall braided shield to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk in congested cable environments. The Cat8.1 specification enables sustained high-speed transmission for demanding applications. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors improve contact reliability and resist oxidation, and the 10 m length offers flexibility for positioning networking equipment without the need for patch panels or additional extenders.

Suitable for

• High-speed LAN connections between switches, servers, and workstations
• Point-to-point connections in small office or home office (SOHO) environments
• Temporary network setups for events or testing
• Patch cabling in data cabinets where a visible cable color is helpful

Key specifications

• Cable standard: Cat8.1
• Shielding: S/FTP (individual pair foil + overall braid)
• Maximum data rate: up to 40000 Mbit/s
• Length: 10 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Colour: Yellow

How to use

Uncoil the 10 m Alcasa Cat8.1 cable and connect each RJ-45 connector firmly into the corresponding Ethernet ports on your devices, such as switches, routers, network cards or servers. Ensure connectors click into place and avoid tight bends near the connector ends to maintain shielding performance. Route the cable to minimise exposure to sources of strong electromagnetic interference and secure it with cable ties or clips as needed to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable within the intended 10 m length without excessive stretching, avoid running it parallel alongside high-power electrical lines, and check that connected equipment supports the desired data rates. Periodic inspection of the gold-plated connectors for debris and gentle cleaning with a dry, lint-free cloth will help maintain reliable connections.
