GoodConnections RNS® Cat.8.1 S/FTP Patch Cable, LSZH, 2000MHz, 40Gbit/s, Orange, 1m

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 rates up to 40 Gbit/s, it supports the latest high-speed Ethernet standards including 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T. The cable features S/FTP shielding (overall braid and foil) with individual pair shielding (PiMF) to minimize crosstalk and electromagnetic interference, ensuring reliable data transmission. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket makes it safe for use in confined spaces, as it emits low smoke and no toxic halogen gases in case of fire. The cable is terminated with gold-plated RJ45 connectors (50µ) and is fully backward compatible with Cat.6a, Cat.6, Cat.5e, and Cat.5 networks.

Advantages

This patch cable offers exceptional performance for high-bandwidth applications. Its robust shielding protects against interference, while the LSZH jacket ensures safety and compliance with fire regulations. The 100% copper conductors and stranded construction provide flexibility and durability. Ideal for PoE++ applications, it supports power delivery up to 100W.
