IT-BUDGET Cat.8.1 Slim Ethernet Patch Cable, S/FTP, 40 Gbps, 2000 MHz, LSZH, PoE+, Red, 1 m 90ITBSLIM81PK1R

40 Gbps over 2000 MHz bandwidth with full copper conductors in a slim AWG 28 design—this Cat.8.1 patch cable delivers high-speed networking without the bulk.

Overview

The IT-BUDGET Premium Patch Cable is a Cat.8.1 Ethernet cable built for 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T networks. It uses S/FTP shielding with individually foil-wrapped pairs (PiMF) and an overall braid to block EMI and crosstalk. The LSZH jacket is halogen-free, reducing toxic smoke and corrosive gases in case of fire. Gold-plated RJ45 connectors resist corrosion and ensure reliable contact. At 1 metre, it is ideal for short server-to-switch links, patch panels, and high-density racks.
