InLine Patchkabel, S/FTP (PiMf), Cat.8.1, 2000 MHz, halogeenvrij, grijs, 7,5 m

The InLine Patch cable S/FTP PiMf Cat.8.1 2000MHz halogen-free grey 7.5m is a shielded Ethernet patch cable engineered for high-frequency data transmission. Designed to support networking environments that require maximum bandwidth and minimal interference, this Cat.8.1 cable uses pair-in-metal-foil (PiMf) screening and an overall shield to reduce crosstalk and electromagnetic interference. The cable features gold-plated RJ-45 connectors and a halogen-free jacket in grey, with a length suitable for connections within racks, between switches and servers, or in demanding workstation setups.

Advantages

The combination of S/FTP (PiMf) construction and Cat.8.1 specification enables operation up to 2000 MHz, offering improved signal integrity compared with lower-category cables. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors provide reliable contact and corrosion resistance for consistent connectivity. The halogen-free outer jacket reduces toxic gas emission in the event of a fire and meets requirements for installations where low smoke and low halogen materials are preferred. The grey colour and 7.5 m length provide a balance between visibility and cable management in server rooms and office environments.

Suitable for

• High-speed data links between switches, servers, and patch panels
• Data centres and enterprise network backbones requiring high bandwidth
• Rack-to-rack or switch-to-server connections within structured cabling
• Environments where low-smoke, halogen-free cabling is required

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.8.1 (S/FTP PiMf)
• Maximum frequency: 2000 MHz
• Cable length: 7.5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Jacket: halogen-free, colour grey

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to the network equipment port and the other to the corresponding patch panel, switch or server port. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the locking tab engages to maintain a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends, excessive mechanical stress, and sources of strong electromagnetic interference. For best performance, maintain recommended bend radius and avoid running the cable parallel to power lines for long distances.

Recommendations

Use this cable for short to medium-length critical links where Cat.8.1 performance is required. Inspect connectors for damage before installation and replace the cable if the jacket or terminations are compromised. For permanent structured cabling over longer distances, consider using appropriate permanent link components and follow local installation standards.
