Networking Cable Lanberg PCF8-10CU-0200-S RJ-45 Cat8.1 2m Grey

The Lanberg PCF8-10CU-0200-S is a 2 m grey networking cable built to the Cat8.1 specification with RJ-45 connectors. It supports data transfer rates up to 40000 Mbit/s and uses S/FTP shielding (braid plus foil on each pair) to reduce electromagnetic interference. The cable has a 26AWG conductor (7 strands of 0.16 mm) and an outer diameter of approximately 6.0 mm ±0.2 mm, suitable for high-speed local networks and server connections.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding provides effective protection against crosstalk and external noise, while Cat8.1 compliance enables very high bandwidth for demanding network applications. The 26AWG stranded conductors offer a flexible cable construction and the standard RJ-45 connectors allow compatibility with common networking equipment. The 2 m length and grey colour make it practical for desktop and rack installations.

Suitable for

• High-speed LAN and data center uplinks
• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch connections
• Workstation and desktop networking where short runs are required
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat8.1
• Length: 2 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 — both ends
• Shielding: S/FTP (braid + foil on each pair)
• Wire gauge: 26AWG (7 × 0.16 mm)
• Outer diameter: 6.0 mm ±0.2 mm
• Maximum data rate: up to 40000 Mbit/s
• Colour: Grey

How to use

Connect each RJ-45 plug to the corresponding network port on devices such as switches, routers or network cards. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. For best performance, avoid sharp bends and maintain recommended bend radius; keep the cable clear of strong electromagnetic sources where possible. Use the 2 m length for short runs between rack-mounted equipment or between a desktop device and nearby network outlet.

Recommendations

For reliable high-speed performance, verify that connected equipment and patch panels support Cat8.1 or equivalent bandwidth. In installations with multiple cable runs, maintain proper cable separation from power lines and follow established rack management practices to minimize signal degradation.
