shiverpeaks BS08-41071-2 Cat8.1 F/FTP Network Cable, Blue, 10 m, RJ45, 40 Gbps, LSZH

For high-speed data links that demand both headroom and reliability, this shiverpeaks Cat8.1 patch cable stands apart with its 2000 MHz bandwidth and 40GBASE-T capability—twice the frequency of Cat6a and ready for 25/40 Gigabit Ethernet. The F/FTP shielding (foiled pairs plus overall foil) blocks alien crosstalk in dense racks, while the LSZH jacket keeps fumes low in case of fire. At 10 meters, it bridges longer runs without signal loss.

Highlights

• Cat8.1 performance: up to 40 Gbps and 2000 MHz
• F/FTP shielding: each pair foiled, plus overall foil
• Gold-plated RJ45 connectors with snag-free boots
• LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) blue jacket
• Stranded 24 AWG copper conductors for flexibility
• Backward compatible with Cat6a, Cat6, Cat5e

In daily use

This cable is built for server rooms, 10G/25G/40G switch uplinks, and high-throughput workstations. The stranded 7-wire conductors make it easy to route around corners, while the robust shielding maintains signal integrity even next to power lines. The blue LSZH jacket is easy to identify in cable trays and meets strict fire safety codes for public buildings.
