Networking Cable S/CONN 08-41155 Black 1.5m Cat8.1 F/FTP

The ShiverPeaks Networking Cable S/CONN 08-41155 Black 1.5m Cat8.1 F/FTP is a high-performance Ethernet cable designed for demanding network environments. Compliant with Cat8.1 specifications, this 1.5 metre cable provides a reliable physical connection for high-speed data transfer. The F/FTP construction combines an overall foil shield with individually foiled pairs to reduce crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference, while gold-plated RJ-45 connectors support stable contact and signal integrity. The black jacket offers a discreet, professional appearance suitable for home and office setups.

Advantages

The cable's Cat8.1 rating enables support for higher frequencies and faster data rates compared to lower category cables. F/FTP shielding enhances resistance to interference from nearby power lines and electronic devices, improving connection stability in noisy environments. Gold-plated connectors reduce oxidation and help maintain low contact resistance over time. A 1.5 m length balances reach and cable management for desktop, rack, or patch panel applications, and the flexible jacket simplifies routing behind equipment.

Suitable for

• High-speed wired connections between switches, routers and networked devices
• Short-distance connections in server rooms and data racks
• Gaming PCs, workstations and media streaming devices that require low-latency links
• Home and office networks where reduced electromagnetic interference is desired

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat8.1
• Length: 1.5 m
• Shielding: F/FTP (overall foil + individually foiled pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Color: Black
• Conductor type: Twisted pair copper

How to use

Connect one end of the cable to an RJ-45 port on your network device and the other end to the corresponding port on a switch, router or computer. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and proximity to high-voltage power lines to preserve shielding effectiveness. For rack or patch panel installations, use cable management accessories to keep the 1.5 m length tidy and to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

Use this Cat8.1 F/FTP cable for short runs where high bandwidth and low interference are required. Verify device port compatibility with Cat8.1 performance and keep connectors and ports free of dust. Replace the cable if the jacket or connectors show visible damage to maintain reliable data transmission.
