Networking cable Alcasa 8080L-100 RJ-45 Cat8.1 10 m Grey

The Alcasa 8080L-100 RJ-45 Cat8.1 10 m Grey networking cable is a high-performance Ethernet cable designed for demanding networks. Conforming to the Cat8.1 standard and featuring S/FTP (S-STP) shielding, it provides robust protection against electromagnetic interference and supports high-speed data transmission. Both ends are fitted with gold-plated RJ-45 connectors to ensure reliable contact and reduced signal loss. The 10 m length and neutral grey jacket make it practical for use in offices, server rooms and home networking setups.

Advantages

Thanks to Cat8.1 specifications and S/FTP shielding, this cable delivers stable throughput for applications that require low latency and high bandwidth. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors improve corrosion resistance and maintain consistent electrical contact over time. The 10 m length offers flexibility for routing between networking equipment without excessive slack, while the grey outer sheath provides a discreet, professional appearance suitable for visible installations.

Suitable for

• High-speed LAN connections and workstation linking
• Connections between switches, routers and network appliances
• Server rack interconnects and data center patching
• Home networks requiring future-proof bandwidth

Key specifications

• Cabling standard: Cat8.1
• Shielding: S/FTP (S-STP) — overall foil with individually shielded pairs
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Supported transmission: 40GBase-T capability for high-throughput links
• Length: 10 m
• Colour: Grey

How to use

Route the cable between network devices ensuring the connectors are fully inserted into RJ-45 ports until the latch clicks. Avoid sharp bends and excessive compression along the cable run; maintain bend radius recommended for Ethernet cabling to preserve performance. For structured cabling, label both ends as needed and secure the cable with appropriate clips or cable management accessories to prevent strain on connectors.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, keep the cable away from strong sources of electromagnetic noise such as large motors or unshielded power lines and avoid bundling with power cables. When used in data center or enterprise installations, test the link with appropriate network certification tools to verify 40GBase-T compatibility and signal integrity over the 10 m run.
