InLine Patch Cable S/FTP PiMF Cat.8.1 halogen free 2000MHz black, 0.25m

The InLine Patch Cable S/FTP PiMF Cat.8.1 2000MHz Black 0.25m is a short, high-performance Ethernet patch cable designed for ultra-fast data transmission and minimal signal loss. With Category 8.1 specification and a rated bandwidth of 2000 MHz, the cable uses S/FTP (shielded foil twisted pair with overall braid) and PiMF (pairs in metal foil) construction to provide enhanced electromagnetic interference protection. The compact 0.25 m length and RJ-45 connectors on both ends make it suitable for patching between closely spaced ports in racks, switches, or wall outlets while halogen-free materials reduce toxic emissions in the event of fire.

Advantages

The cable’s S/FTP PiMF shielding lowers crosstalk and external interference, supporting stable high-speed connections over short distances. Category 8.1 compliance and 2000 MHz bandwidth enable reliable transmission for demanding networking environments. The short 0.25 m form factor reduces cable clutter and signal attenuation between adjacent devices. Standard RJ-45 connectors ensure compatibility with a wide range of network equipment. Halogen-free jacket materials improve safety in enclosed or public spaces.

Suitable for

• Patching between switches and patch panels in server racks
• Connecting network devices in data centers and telecommunication cabinets
• Short-distance connections between routers, modems and network appliances
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference and improved fire safety

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.8.1
• Bandwidth: 2000 MHz
• Shielding: S/FTP (individual pair foil + overall braid), PiMF
• Length: 0.25 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port until it clicks to ensure a secure connection. Use this 0.25 m patch cable to link adjacent ports on patch panels, switches or network devices where a short, shielded connection is required. Avoid sharp bends or crushing of the cable and maintain a minimum bend radius consistent with high-frequency shielded cables to preserve signal integrity. When routing in racks or cabinets, keep the cable separated from large power cables where possible to further reduce potential interference.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat.8.1 S/FTP PiMF patch cable for short, high-bandwidth runs only and pair it with compatible shielded network equipment and proper grounding. Inspect connectors for damage before installation and replace the cable if shielding or jacket integrity is compromised.
