InLine patchkabel, S/FTP (PiMf), Cat.8.1, 2000MHz, halogeenvrij, geel, 1,5m

The InLine Patch cable S/FTP PiMf Cat.8.1 2000MHz halogen-free yellow 1.5m is a shielded Ethernet patch cable engineered for high-speed data transmission in demanding network environments. It supports frequencies up to 2000 MHz and uses S/FTP (screened foil twisted pair, pair in metal foil) construction to reduce crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference. Both ends are fitted with standard RJ-45 connectors and the cable jacket is halogen-free for improved fire safety and reduced toxic gas emissions. The yellow jacket improves visibility for easy identification in cable runs and rack installations.

Advantages

The cable's S/FTP PiMf design provides superior shielding at the pair and overall cable level, improving signal integrity for applications that require low latency and high bandwidth. Support for Cat.8.1 and a rated frequency of 2000 MHz ensure compatibility with high-performance Ethernet links and future-proofing for faster network equipment. The halogen-free jacket reduces smoke and corrosive gas generation in the event of a fire, and the compact 1.5 m length reduces excess slack in patch-panel and switch-to-device connections. Standard RJ-45 connectors ensure plug-and-play compatibility with common network ports.

Suitable for

• High-speed server-to-switch connections in data centers
• Short-distance backbone links and switch-to-switch patching
• Noisy electromagnetic environments where shielding is required
• Cabinet and rack cable management where color coding improves maintenance

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.8.1
• Cable type: S/FTP (PiMf) — overall screen with individually foil-wrapped pairs
• Frequency rating: up to 2000 MHz
• Length: 1.5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 on both ends
• Jacket: halogen-free
• Color: yellow

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to the network switch, patch panel or router port and the other RJ-45 connector to the target device such as a server, NAS or high-performance workstation. Ensure connectors are fully seated and that plug latches engage to maintain a stable connection. Route the cable following existing cable-management paths, avoiding sharp bends and prolonged compression. Use the 1.5 m length to minimize slack in close-distance connections; if needed, secure the cable with Velcro ties or cable organizers to prevent strain on connectors.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat.8.1 S/FTP patch cable for short, high-bandwidth links up to the cable's length and avoid bundling it with power cables. Inspect connectors for contamination before installation and avoid repeated sharp bending near the connector strain relief. In environments with strong EMI, ensure both ends are connected to properly grounded equipment for maximum shielding effectiveness.
