InLine Patchkabel, S/FTP (PiMf), Cat.8.1, 2000 MHz, halogeenvrij, grijs, 2 m

The InLine Patch cable S/FTP PiMf Cat.8.1 2000MHz halogen-free grey 2m is a high-performance Ethernet patch cable designed for environments that require very high data throughput and strong protection against electromagnetic interference. It supports frequency ranges up to 2000 MHz and uses S/FTP (shielded/foil-twisted pairs with an overall braid) construction and PiMf (Pairs in Metal foil) design to maintain signal integrity across the link. The cable comes in a 2 m length with RJ-45 connectors on both ends and a halogen-free jacket for improved safety in case of fire and reduced environmental impact.

Advantages

The S/FTP PiMf Cat.8.1 cable delivers reliable high-speed data transmission with reduced crosstalk and external interference thanks to its per-pair foil shielding and overall braid. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts improve contact reliability and corrosion resistance for consistent connectivity. The halogen-free outer jacket minimizes toxic gas emission in fire scenarios and supports installations where low-smoke, halogen-free (LSHF) materials are required. Its 2 m length provides flexibility for rack-to-rack or equipment-to-switch connections in data centers and professional network installations.

Suitable for

• High-speed server-to-switch connections in data centers
• Patch panels and network racks requiring short-range, high-bandwidth links
• Environments with high electromagnetic interference where shielded cables are necessary
• Installations requiring halogen-free cabling for safety and regulatory compliance

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network port of a switch, patch panel or network device and the other plug to the corresponding port on the server, workstation or another network device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends, crushing, or exposure to strong heat sources; maintain minimum bend radius recommended for Cat.8.1 cables to preserve performance. For permanent installations, verify shielding continuity by connecting cable shields to grounded points in the network rack or chassis as required by the site grounding design.

Recommendations

Use this Cat.8.1 S/FTP PiMf patch cable for short-range high-bandwidth links in professional environments such as data centers and telecom rooms. Avoid excessive bending and mechanical stress; keep cable runs short or within recommended lengths for maximum signal performance. When integrating into shielded racks or cabinets, ensure proper grounding of cable shields to maintain EMC protection.
