Network Cable DeLOCK RJ45 Cat.8.1 2m Black

This network cable by DeLOCK is designed for 40GBASE-T Ethernet applications, offering a transmission frequency up to 2 GHz and data rates up to 40 Gbps. The slim Cat.8.1 F/FTP patch cable with gold-plated RJ45 connectors and a 2 m length provides a space-saving solution for high-speed connections in racks and tight installation areas.

Advantages

The slim design and small cable diameter enable flexible, space-efficient cabling in network cabinets. F/FTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference for more reliable signal integrity. A flexible sheath material increases resistance to strain and handling, while gold-plated RJ45 contacts improve contact reliability and corrosion resistance.

Suitable for

• 40GBASE-T Ethernet connections
• High-speed server and switch interconnections
• Data center patching in confined spaces
• Professional network installations requiring F/FTP shielding

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat.8.1
• Length: 2 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Shielding: F/FTP
• Maximum frequency: 2 GHz
• Maximum data rate: up to 40 Gbps (40000 Mbit/s)
• Colour: Black

How to use

Connect one RJ45 connector to your network device (switch, router or NIC) and the other RJ45 connector to the corresponding port on the target device. Ensure both ports support the required Ethernet standard and negotiate link speed in the device settings if necessary. Route the slim cable through cable management openings or ducting to maintain an organised installation.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid tight bends and excessive mechanical strain. Use the cable in environments compatible with the specified shielding; separate power lines where possible to minimize interference. Verify device compatibility for 40GBASE-T where full 40 Gbps throughput is required.
