InLine Patch cable, S/FTP (PiMf), Cat.8.1, 2000MHz, halogen-free, grey, 15m

The InLine Patch cable S/FTP PiMf Cat.8.1 2000MHz halogen-free grey 15m is a high-performance Ethernet patch cable engineered for demanding network environments. It supports data transmission up to 2000 MHz and uses S/FTP (PiMf) shielding together with gold-plated RJ-45 connectors to maintain signal integrity over a 15 metre run. The halogen-free jacket reduces hazardous emissions in case of fire and the grey finish provides a neutral appearance suitable for professional and residential installations.

Advantages

The S/FTP PiMf construction provides individual foil shielding around each twisted pair plus an overall braided shield, which reduces crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference. Support for Cat.8.1 frequency ranges up to 2000 MHz enables multi-gigabit and future-proofed connections. Gold-plated RJ-45 plugs offer improved contact reliability and corrosion resistance. The halogen-free outer sheath improves safety and environmental compliance in enclosed spaces.

Suitable for

• High-speed data centers and backbone links
• Professional network racks and switch-to-switch connections
• Workstations and servers requiring multi-gigabit connectivity
• Structured cabling in offices and smart homes

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.8.1
• Shielding: S/FTP (PiMf) — individual pair foil + overall braided shield
• Frequency rating: up to 2000 MHz
• Length: 15 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Jacket material: halogen-free
• Colour: grey

How to use

Connect one gold-plated RJ-45 plug to the network port of your switch, router or network interface card and the other plug to the remote device. Ensure connectors are fully seated to achieve reliable contact. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference; maintain recommended minimum bend radius and avoid excessive tension. For permanent installations, secure the cable with appropriate cable management to prevent strain on connectors.

Recommendations

For optimal performance at high frequencies, keep cable runs within structured-cabling guidelines and avoid untwisting the pairs near the connector. Use this Cat.8.1 S/FTP cable for short to medium runs in data center topologies or for direct device-to-device links where multi-gigabit throughput and low interference are required.
