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

The InLine Patch cable S/FTP PiMf Cat.8.1 2000MHz halogen-free yellow 2m is a 2‑metre high-frequency Ethernet patch cable designed for modern, high-speed network links. It uses S/FTP (Shielded/Foiled Twisted Pair, PiMf) construction and meets Category 8.1 performance parameters with support up to 2000 MHz. The cable has RJ‑45 connectors on both ends and halogen‑free insulation, offering reduced toxic gas emission in case of fire and easier identification in installations due to its yellow jacket.

Advantages

The S/FTP PiMf shielding minimizes crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference, improving signal integrity for demanding applications. Category 8.1 performance up to 2000 MHz enables higher data rates and low-latency links where supported by connected equipment. Halogen-free material increases safety in enclosed or public spaces by reducing corrosive and toxic fumes during combustion. The RJ‑45 terminations provide broad compatibility with standard network switches, patch panels and devices that accept shielded RJ‑45 connectors.

Suitable for

• High-speed server room and data center patching
• Backbone and switch-to-switch links within racks and cabinets
• Applications requiring shielded cabling in electrically noisy environments
• Environments where halogen-free cables are preferred for safety compliance

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.8.1 (S/FTP, PiMf)
• Frequency rating: up to 2000 MHz
• Length: 2 m
• Connectors: RJ‑45 to RJ‑45 (shielded)
• Jacket material: halogen-free
• Color: yellow

How to use

Connect each RJ‑45 end to the corresponding shielded ports on network devices, patch panels or switches. Ensure connector shields are properly terminated to the equipment chassis ground where required to maintain the effectiveness of the S/FTP shielding. Route the cable without excessive bending and avoid tight loops or kinks; follow standard installation bend radius recommendations for high-frequency cables. Use cable management accessories to secure and separate this cable from power lines and sources of strong electromagnetic interference.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat.8.1 S/FTP patch cable for short, high-speed links up to the specified 2 m length inside racks and cabinets. Verify that connected devices and patch panels support shielded RJ‑45 terminations and proper grounding to benefit from the cable's shielding. Avoid running alongside unshielded power cables and maintain appropriate bend radius to preserve signal integrity.
