InLine Patch Cable S/FTP PiMF Cat.8.1 halogen free 2000MHz black, 1m

The InLine Patch Cable S/FTP PiMF Cat.8.1 halogen free 2000MHz black 1m is a shielded Ethernet patch cable engineered for very high data throughput and reliable signal integrity. Designed to support data transfer rates up to 40000 Mbit/s and frequencies to 2000 MHz, this 1 metre cable uses S/FTP (shielded foil with braided overall) construction and PiMF pair shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. The halogen-free jacket improves safety in confined or public spaces, while gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure consistent contact and low contact resistance for predictable network behaviour.

Advantages

The cable’s S/FTP PiMF structure provides superior protection against external noise and adjacent-pair crosstalk, making it suitable for high-density installations. A halogen-free outer jacket reduces toxic gas emission in case of fire, meeting safety considerations in professional environments. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors and a compact, flexible 1 m form factor simplify installation and maintain stable connections in racks, panels, and workplace setups. The product supports modern high-speed applications while preserving backward compatibility with standard RJ-45 ports.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• High-speed data centers and server interconnects
• 10G/25G/40G Ethernet uplinks and backbone segments
• Professional network racks, switches and patch panels
• Workstation connections where minimal interference is required
• Environments requiring halogen-free cabling for safety compliance

How to use

Connect one gold-plated RJ-45 plug into the network port of your device and the other end into the corresponding port on a switch, patch panel or router. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive mechanical stress; maintain recommended bend radius for high-frequency cables. For rack installations, use appropriate cable management to separate patch cords from power lines and reduce potential interference.

Recommendations

For optimal performance at high frequencies, keep cable runs as short as feasible and avoid running alongside power cables. Use this Cat.8.1 S/FTP PiMF patch cable for short uplinks and critical links inside data centres or network cabinets where maximum shielding and halogen-free materials are required.
