GoodConnections RNS® Cat.8.1 S/FTP Patch Cable, LSZH, 2000MHz, 40Gbit/s, Orange, 1.5m

The GoodConnections RNS® Cat.8.1 S/FTP Patch Cable is a high-performance network cable designed for demanding data center and server room environments. With a bandwidth of 2000 MHz and data transfer rate of 40 Gbit/s, it supports the latest high-speed Ethernet standards while being backward compatible with Cat.6a, Cat.6, Cat.5e, and Cat.5. The cable features S/FTP shielding (Screened/Foiled Twisted Pair) with pairs in metal foil (PiMF) for excellent protection against electromagnetic interference. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket ensures safety in enclosed spaces by emitting minimal smoke and no toxic halogen gases in case of fire.

Advantages

This patch cable offers superior performance and reliability for high-bandwidth applications. The gold-plated RJ45 connectors ensure optimal conductivity and corrosion resistance. The 100% copper conductors (AWG 22) guarantee signal integrity over the 1.5-meter length. The halogen-free, flame-retardant jacket makes it ideal for use in public buildings, schools, hospitals, and other areas where safety is paramount.
