InLine Patch cable, S/FTP (PiMf), Cat.8.1, 2000MHz, halogen-free, red, 10m

The InLine Patch Cable S/FTP Cat.8.1 2000MHz Halogen-Free Red 10m is a high-frequency Ethernet patch lead designed for demanding network environments. It supports transmission up to 2000 MHz thanks to S/FTP (shielded/foiled twisted pair) construction and features two RJ-45 connectors for standard Ethernet endpoints. The 10 m length provides reach for rack-to-desk and equipment-to-equipment connections while the halogen-free jacket reduces harmful gas emission in the event of fire. The red color helps visually identify and manage cabling in structured installations.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding minimizes crosstalk and external interference, delivering stable high-speed data transfer and improved signal integrity at higher frequencies. The Cat.8.1 specification supports modern networking demands where low latency and high throughput are required. A halogen-free jacket enhances safety in enclosed spaces and industrial settings. Standard RJ-45 terminations ensure compatibility with a wide range of network ports and active equipment.

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.8.1 with S/FTP shielding
• Frequency rating: up to 2000 MHz
• Length: 10 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Jacket: halogen-free
• Color: red

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network port of your switch, router or network interface and the other RJ-45 plug to the target device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and strong mechanical stress; maintain bend radius recommended for twisted pair cabling to preserve performance. For permanent installations, use proper cable management and strain relief to prevent connector damage.

Recommendations

Use this Cat.8.1 S/FTP patch cable in short-run, high-bandwidth links inside racks and cabinets or for interconnects where shielding and high-frequency performance are required. Avoid outdoor exposure and direct sunlight; do not exceed recommended bend radius or apply excessive pulling force during installation.
