InLine Patch cable, S/FTP (PiMf), Cat.8.1, 2000MHz, halogen-free, white, 1.5m

The InLine Patch cable S/FTP PiMf Cat.8.1 2000MHz halogen-free white 1.5m is a high-performance Ethernet patch lead engineered for demanding network environments. It supports Cat.8.1 transmission up to 2000 MHz and uses an S/FTP (PiMf) shielding design with individually shielded pairs and an overall braid to minimise electromagnetic interference. The cable is halogen-free and comes with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, offering a compact 1.5 m length suitable for short connections between network devices.

Advantages

The S/FTP PiMf construction provides strong protection against crosstalk and external noise, delivering stable signal integrity at high frequencies. With Cat.8.1 performance up to 2000 MHz, the cable is compatible with current and emerging high-speed standards where backward compatibility with lower categories is required. The halogen-free jacket reduces hazardous emissions in case of fire, improving safety for indoor installations. The white outer jacket and factory-terminated RJ-45 connectors ensure a neat, ready-to-use connection without additional assembly.

Suitable for

• Short-distance links between switches, routers, and servers in data centers
• High-speed network segments requiring maximal shielding and minimal interference
• Professional office wiring where halogen-free materials are preferred
• Environments with dense cable runs and high electromagnetic activity

Key specifications

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network port of a switch, router or network interface and the other RJ-45 plug to the target device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Use the 1.5 m length for tidy short runs between devices or within rack enclosures. Avoid sharp bends and excess tension on the cable to maintain performance; keep the cable routed away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference when possible.

Recommendations

For best performance, use this Cat.8.1 patch cable for short, shielded links in controlled environments such as server rooms and structured cabling panels. Maintain bend radius recommendations from network equipment manufacturers and avoid routing the cable parallel and close to high-power mains cables. Inspect RJ-45 connectors for damage before use and replace the cable if the jacket or connectors are compromised.
