Networking cable ShiverPeaks BS08-41052 Yellow 5 m Cat8.1 F/FTP

The ShiverPeaks BS08-41052 Yellow 5 m Cat8.1 F/FTP networking cable is a high-performance Ethernet cable designed for demanding wired network environments. With Cat8.1 specification and F/FTP shielding, this 5-metre cable supports very high data transfer rates and minimizes electromagnetic interference. The cable terminates in gold-plated RJ-45 connectors for reliable contact and corrosion resistance, and its yellow jacket provides clear visual identification in cable runs.

Advantages

The cable delivers Cat8.1 performance suitable for modern 10G/25G/40G network segments while the F/FTP construction (overall foil with individually shielded pairs) reduces crosstalk and external interference. Gold-plated RJ-45 plugs ensure stable signal transmission and wear resistance during repeated plug cycles. The 5 m length allows flexible placement of devices without excess slack, and the bright yellow sheath makes organization and troubleshooting easier in multi-cable installations.

Suitable for

• High-speed data connections in server rooms and data centers
• Backbone and switch-to-switch links supporting multi-gigabit speeds
• Workstation and high-performance PC connections requiring low latency
• Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is important

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat8.1
• Shielding: F/FTP (overall foil + individually shielded pairs)
• Length: 5 m
• Connector type: RJ-45
• Connector plating: gold-plated contacts
• Maximum data rate: up to 40000 Mbit/s
• Color: yellow

How to use

Connect one end of the cable to the RJ-45 port of a network device and the other end to the corresponding RJ-45 port on a switch, router, modem or network interface card. Ensure connectors are fully inserted and latched to maintain a secure connection. For optimal performance, avoid tight bends, kinks and proximity to high-power electrical cables that may introduce interference. Use the 5 m length to position devices at a practical distance without stretching the cable.

Recommendations

For best results in high-speed installations, verify that connected equipment supports multi-gigabit or higher speeds and that patch panels and switches are rated appropriately. When routing through racks or conduits, maintain gentle bend radii and avoid sharp edges. Periodically inspect connectors for contamination and replace cables that show physical damage.
