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

The InLine Patch cable S/FTP PiMf Cat.8.1 2000MHz halogen-free red 1m is a shielded network patch cable designed for high-frequency data transmission in compact setups. Constructed with S/FTP (shielded/foiled twisted pairs) and pairs individually shielded with a braid and foil, this Cat.8.1 cable supports operation up to 2000 MHz and uses RJ-45 connectors on both ends. The halogen-free jacket reduces toxic gas emission in case of fire, and the 1 m length is suitable for short links between devices where space is limited. The red outer sheath makes the cable easy to identify in cable runs and racks.

Advantages

This Cat.8.1 S/FTP patch cable provides high shielding to minimize electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, enabling stable transmission at very high frequencies up to 2000 MHz. The use of RJ-45 connectors ensures compatibility with standard network equipment without the need for specialized ports. The halogen-free jacket improves safety in enclosed environments, and the compact 1 m length reduces cable clutter and maintains signal integrity for short-distance connections.

Suitable for

• High-speed short-distance links in data centers and server rooms
• Connections between switches, routers and patch panels within racks
• Workstation or desktop connections where cable management and identification are important

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.8.1
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid + foil with individually shielded pairs)
• Frequency support: up to 2000 MHz
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Length: 1 m
• Jacket material: halogen-free
• Colour: red

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of the source device and the other RJ-45 connector into the destination device, switch or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully seated and the cable is routed without excessive bending or compression to preserve shielding and internal pair geometry. For best performance, use this cable for short links up to its specified length and avoid routing it alongside high-power electrical lines that may introduce interference.

Recommendations

Use the cable for short, high-bandwidth connections where Cat.8.1 performance is required; maintain gentle bend radii, keep the cable away from mains power conductors, and label it by color or tag for clear identification in multi-cable installations.
