InLine Patch cable flat, U/FTP, Cat.8.1, TPE halogen-free, white, 0.3m

This InLine Patch cable flat U/FTP Cat.8.1 TPE halogen-free white 0.3m is a short, flat Ethernet patch cable designed for high-speed data transmission in confined spaces. Compliant with Cat.8.1 performance criteria, it uses U/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors to maintain signal integrity and reduce interference. The halogen-free TPE jacket provides improved safety and environmental characteristics compared with conventional PVC-sheathed cables. With a 0.3 m length and flat profile, the cable is suitable for routing under carpets, along walls or behind equipment where space is limited.

Advantages

The flat construction allows low-profile routing and easier concealment in tight installations while maintaining the required Cat.8.1 transmission performance. U/FTP shielding helps minimize crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference, supporting stable high-frequency signals. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors improve contact reliability and resist oxidation for durable electrical connections. The halogen-free TPE jacket reduces harmful emissions in case of fire and offers a flexible, abrasion-resistant outer layer suitable for frequent handling in professional and home environments.

Suitable for

• Short connections between network ports in racks, patch panels and switches
• Routing behind furniture, under carpets or along skirting boards where a flat profile is needed
• High-speed Ethernet links requiring Cat.8.1 compliance and shielding
• Environments where halogen-free cable jackets are preferred for safety or regulatory reasons

Key specifications

• Cable length: 0.3 m
• Conductor/Shielding: U/FTP
• Category: Cat.8.1
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Jacket material: halogen-free TPE
• Colour: White
• Profile: flat

How to use

Connect one gold-plated RJ-45 plug to the network port of your device and the other to the corresponding port on a switch, patch panel or router. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. The 0.3 m length is intended for short link applications; avoid stretching the cable and route it along surfaces or edges to keep the flat profile flush and protected. If used under carpets or in narrow gaps, confirm that the cable is not subjected to sharp bending or heavy compression that could affect performance.

Recommendations

For best performance, use this cable for short, high-frequency links where shielding and Cat.8.1 compliance are required. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight or high temperatures over extended periods to preserve the TPE jacket. Periodically inspect connector contacts for dust or debris and clean with appropriate contact-safe methods if needed.
