GoodConnections RNS® Cat.8.1 S/FTP Patch Cable, PiMF, LSZH, 2000MHz, 40Gbit/s, White, 0.5m

The GoodConnections RNS® Cat.8.1 S/FTP patch cable delivers exceptional performance for high-speed data center and server room applications. With a bandwidth of 2000 MHz and data rate of 40 Gbit/s, it supports the latest 40GBase-T networks while remaining backward compatible with Cat.6a, Cat.6, and Cat.5e. The S/FTP shielding (overall braid and foil per pair) with PiMF (Pairs in Metal Foil) provides excellent protection against electromagnetic interference, ensuring reliable data transmission. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket makes it safe for use in enclosed spaces, reducing toxic fumes in case of fire. This 0.5-meter white cable is terminated with RJ45 male connectors and is compliant with TIA/EIA 568B wiring standard. It also supports PoE, PoE+, and 4PPoE (IEEE 802.3af/at/bt), making it versatile for powering devices over the network.
