SHIVERPEAKS BS08-41025-4 Cat.8.1 S/FTP Network Cable, RJ45, 1m, Black

Experience next-generation connectivity with the SHIVERPEAKS BS08-41025-4 Cat.8.1 network cable, engineered for 40 Gigabit Ethernet and bandwidth up to 2000 MHz. This 1-metre black patch cable delivers exceptional performance for high-speed data centres, server rooms, and demanding workstation setups. Its S/FTP shielding—individual foil-wrapped pairs plus an overall foil shield—virtually eliminates crosstalk and electromagnetic interference, ensuring stable, error-free transmission even in dense, noise-heavy environments.

Advantages

Gold-plated contacts (50µ) resist corrosion and maintain signal integrity over thousands of mating cycles. The snagless boot protects the locking tab from damage during installation and removal, while the LSZH jacket reduces toxic smoke and corrosive gases in the event of fire, making it ideal for public buildings and confined spaces. Fully backward compatible with previous Ethernet standards, this cable is a future-proof investment.
