InLine Patch cable slim, U/FTP, Cat.8.1, TPE halogen-free, black 0.3m

The InLine Patch cable slim U/FTP Cat.8.1 TPE halogen-free black 0.3m is a short patch lead designed for high-speed, shielded network connections in compact setups. Constructed to meet Category 8.1 performance, the cable provides the electrical characteristics required for multi-gigabit Ethernet links over short distances. The slim design and 0.3 m length make it suitable for connecting devices within racks, between adjacent network ports, or in tight workstation layouts where excess cable would cause clutter.

Advantages

This patch cable uses U/FTP shielding and Cat.8.1 specification to support very high data rates and to reduce crosstalk and external interference. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure a reliable contact and corrosion resistance for long-term signal quality. The halogen-free TPE jacket provides improved safety in the event of a fire and maintains flexibility for easy routing in compact environments. The slim profile reduces space consumption and simplifies cable management.

Key specifications

• Cable type: U/FTP (overall unshielded with individually foiled pairs)
• Category: Cat.8.1 performance suitable for multi-gigabit Ethernet
• Length: 0.3 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Jacket material: halogen-free TPE
• Colour: Black
• Profile: Slim / space-saving design

How to use

Connect the gold-plated RJ-45 plugs to the corresponding Ethernet ports of your network devices, ensuring a firm seating until the latch clicks. Use the 0.3 m length for short-distance links such as patch panel to switch ports, switch to switch adjacent connections, or to link devices in a server bay. Avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling; route the cable gently through the available space and keep it clear of heat sources and sharp edges to preserve the TPE jacket.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat.8.1 U/FTP patch cable for short, high-speed connections where shielding is beneficial. Verify that connected equipment supports the intended data rates and ensure both ports are compatible with RJ-45 terminations. When installing in dense racks, label both ends to simplify future maintenance.
