Network Cable Equip Cat 8.1 S/FTP (PIMF) Patch Cable RJ-45 Cat8.1 5.0m Blue

The equip® Cat 8.1 S/FTP (PIMF) Patch Cable is built from high-quality materials and tested to meet industry standards. Designed for high-speed data transfer up to 40000 Mbit/s, this 5.0 m RJ-45 cable with gold-plated contacts and S/FTP shielding provides improved bandwidth and signal-to-noise margin for reliable performance in demanding network environments, including 40GBase-T applications.

Advantages

The Cat 8.1 S/FTP design reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk through individual foil shielding and an overall braid, while gold-plated RJ-45 contacts ensure stable connections and corrosion resistance. Its construction supports ultrahigh data rates and low error transmission over short distances typical for data centers and high-speed networking setups.

Suitable for

• 40GBase-T connections in data centers
• High-speed server-to-switch links
• Backbone or aggregation cabling in LAN environments
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Cable length: 5 m
• Data rate: up to 40000 Mbit/s
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Shielding: S/FTP (individual pair foil + overall braid)
• Cabling technology: 40GBase-T
• Weight: 0.35 kg
• Product colour: Blue
• Contacts: gold-plated

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to a compatible network port on your switch, server or network device and the other plug to the corresponding port. Ensure both endpoints support the intended 40GBase-T or high-speed configuration. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference for optimal signal integrity.

Recommendations

For best results use the Cat 8.1 patch cable for short-distance high-speed links in controlled environments such as data centers or server rooms; verify device compatibility with 40GBase-T standards and maintain proper cable management to preserve shielding effectiveness.
