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

The InLine Patch cable S/FTP PiMf Cat.8.1 2000MHz halogen-free white 1m is a shielded Ethernet patch cable designed for high-speed data transmission and improved electromagnetic protection. Constructed to Cat.8.1 specifications with S/FTP (PiMf) shielding, the cable supports frequencies up to 2000 MHz and uses RJ-45 connectors on both ends. The halogen-free jacket reduces harmful emissions in case of fire, while the 1 meter length provides a compact connection option for racks, switches, servers and desktop equipment.

Advantages

The cable combines individual foil shielding around each pair with an overall braided shield to minimize crosstalk and external interference, ensuring stable high-bandwidth performance. Its halogen-free outer sheath enhances safety in enclosed or densely populated installations. The standardized RJ-45 terminations ensure compatibility with common network ports and simplify deployment in structured cabling systems. The white jacket offers a discreet appearance suitable for office and data center environments.

Suitable for

• High-speed server and switch interconnections in data centers
• Short copper links in backbone and patch panels
• Workstation or desktop connections where space is limited
• Environments that require improved shielding against EMI/RFI

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.8.1
• Shielding: S/FTP (PiMf) — individual foil around pairs plus overall braided shield
• Frequency range: up to 2000 MHz
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Length: 1 m
• Jacket: halogen-free, white

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 corresponding device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the locking tab engages. Use the 1 m length for close-proximity connections in racks, between adjacent devices or to tidy workstation setups. Verify link status and negotiated speed on connected devices after installation.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid tight bends and excessive pulling; maintain the cable bend radius recommended for high-frequency shielded cables. Route the cable away from high-power electrical wiring to reduce potential interference. Use appropriate grounding of shielded network equipment and patch panels to fully leverage the cable's shielding capabilities.
