Microconnect MC-SFTP802S networking cable Black 2 m Cat8.1 S/FTP (S-STP)

The MicroConnect MC-SFTP802S CAT8.1 patch cable is a 2 m black networking cable designed for high-speed and high-bandwidth applications. Compliant with the Cat8.1 standard and featuring S/FTP shielding, it supports very high data transfer rates and improved protection against electromagnetic interference. The cable uses RJ45 connectors with gold-plated contacts and 50µ" RJ45 connector plating to ensure reliable signal transmission; the boot includes meter markings for quick length identification and a reinforced latch protector to reduce the risk of clip breakage.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding and Cat8.1 specification provide enhanced protection and allow bandwidths up to 2000 MHz and data rates suitable for 25 Gbps and higher network links. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts improve conductivity and corrosion resistance. Meter marking on the boot and a latch protector increase usability and durability in installation environments.

Suitable for

• 25 Gbps network links and other high-speed LAN connections
• Data centers and server racks requiring high bandwidth and low interference
• Office and professional network installations needing durable patch cables

Key specifications

• Length: 2 m
• Standard: Cat8.1
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall shield with individually shielded pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Data rate: up to 40000 Mbit/s (manufacturer specification)
• Bandwidth: up to 2000 MHz (Cat8.1 capability)
• Colour: Black
• Weight: 0.19 kg

How to use

Connect one RJ45 end to the network device (switch, router, server or network port) and the other end to the corresponding port on the paired device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain bend radius recommended for Ethernet cables. Use the meter markings on the boot to verify cable length when planning or documenting installations.

Recommendations

For best performance, install the cable in environments with minimal external electromagnetic interference and avoid running parallel to high-voltage power lines. Verify that connected equipment supports the required speeds (e.g., 25 Gbps) and that patch panels and switches are compatible with Cat8.1 cabling.
