InLine Patch cable, S/FTP (PiMf), Cat.8.1, 2000MHz, halogen-free, grey, 1m

The InLine Patch cable S/FTP PiMf Cat.8.1 2000MHz halogen-free grey 1m is a shielded network patch cable engineered for high-speed data transmission up to 2000 MHz. It uses S/FTP (shielded with foil-wrapped pairs, PiMf) construction and RJ-45 connectors on both ends, offering compatibility with standard Ethernet ports while reducing electromagnetic interference. The halogen-free outer jacket improves safety in environments where low smoke and non-toxic gases are required. With a 1 m length and grey finish, this cable is suitable for short-range connections between network devices and patch panels.

Advantages

The S/FTP PiMf design provides pair-level shielding plus an overall braid shield, which lowers crosstalk and external interference and supports reliable high-frequency transmission. RJ-45 connectors on both ends allow plug-and-play use with existing Ethernet equipment. The halogen-free jacket reduces toxic gas emissions in case of fire, making the cable more suitable for installations where safety standards require low-halogen materials. The 1 m length minimizes excess cable in rack or desktop setups and helps maintain signal integrity over short runs.

Suitable for

• Short connections between switches, routers, and servers in data centers or server rooms
• High-speed workstations or networked devices requiring minimal interference
• Patch panel to active device connections in structured cabling systems
• Environments where halogen-free materials are preferred for safety compliance

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.8.1
• Shielding: S/FTP (PiMf) — overall braid with individually foil-wrapped pairs
• Bandwidth: up to 2000 MHz
• Connectors: RJ-45 on both ends
• Length: 1 m
• Jacket material: halogen-free
• Colour: grey

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the Ethernet port of your switch, router, patch panel, or network device and the other RJ-45 plug to the corresponding port on the receiving device. Ensure connectors are fully seated to establish a secure link. For optimal performance, avoid tight bends near the ends and keep the cable routed away from powerful electrical sources that may introduce interference. Use the 1 m length for short-distance links within racks, desktops, or between closely mounted devices.

Recommendations

Use this Cat.8.1 S/FTP patch cable for short, high-frequency connections where shielding and halogen-free construction are required. For longer runs, consider using certified permanent link cables or structured cabling components rated for the installation distance to maintain signal performance.
