Microconnect MC-SFTP80025R networking cable Red 0.25 m Cat8.1 S/FTP (S-STP)

The MicroConnect MC-SFTP80025R CAT8.1 patch cable is a short, high-performance networking cable designed for demanding environments that require very high data rates and bandwidth. With a length of 0.25 m and S/FTP shielding, it supports data transfer rates up to 40000 Mbit/s and frequencies up to 2000 MHz. The cable uses gold-plated RJ45 connectors with 50µ" contact plating and a reinforced latch for improved durability, while meter markings on the boot simplify length identification.

Advantages

This MicroConnect CAT8.1 cable provides S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, gold-plated RJ45 connectors for reliable contact and low loss, and 50 µ" plating to improve signal integrity. The short 0.25 m length is suitable for tight rack or patch-panel routing, and the reinforced latch reduces the risk of connector damage. The red jacket makes physical identification easier in dense cabling setups.

Suitable for

• High-speed server and switch interconnections in data centers
• Short patch runs between equipment in racks and patch panels
• Environments requiring reduced interference using S/FTP shielding

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat8.1
• Length: 0.25 m
• Maximum data rate: up to 40000 Mbit/s
• Bandwidth/frequency: up to 2000 MHz
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with individually shielded pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts, 50 µ" plating
• Color: Red
• Weight: 0.03 kg

How to use

Connect one RJ45 connector to the network port of your switch, server or network device and the other RJ45 connector to the corresponding port on the adjacent device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the reinforced latch clicks. Use the short 0.25 m cable for neat cable management in racks or between closely placed devices to minimize excess slack and signal reflection.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid sharp bends and excessive tension in the cable, maintain proper grounding of connected equipment to benefit from the S/FTP shielding, and use this short patch cable for connections where minimal length is required; for longer runs choose appropriately rated Cat8 or lower-category cables as needed.
