InLine patchkabel S/FTP PiMF Cat.8.1 halogeenvrij 2000 MHz zwart, 0,5 m

The InLine Patch Cable S/FTP PiMF Cat.8.1 RJ-45 0.5m Black is a short, halogen-free network patch cable designed for high-speed connections in data centres, server rooms and professional network installations. Built to support data transfer rates up to 40000 Mbit/s, the cable uses S/FTP (shielded/foil twisted pair) construction with Pair in Metal Foil (PiMF) to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. Both ends are fitted with gold-plated RJ-45 connectors and the cable is supplied in a compact 0.5 m length for cabinet and rack patching where space is limited.

Advantages

The cable's S/FTP PiMF shielding offers enhanced protection against external noise and ensures stable signal integrity at higher frequencies. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors improve contact reliability and resist corrosion over time. Its halogen-free jacket reduces toxic gas emission in case of fire, meeting requirements for installations where material safety is important. The short 0.5 m length minimizes excess cable in patch panels and makes cable management neater in dense racks.

Suitable for

• Short interconnects in data centres and server racks
• High-speed network links requiring Cat.8.1 performance
• Patching between switches, patch panels and servers
• Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is required

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.8.1
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with foil-wrapped pairs / PiMF)
• Maximum data rate: up to 40000 Mbit/s
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Jacket: halogen-free
• Colour: Black

How to use

Ensure both network ports are powered off or traffic is routed appropriately before installing the patch cable to avoid transient network issues. Insert one RJ-45 connector into the source device (for example a switch or patch panel) and the other into the destination device (server, switch port or wall outlet). Make sure connectors click into place and verify link status via device LEDs or management interfaces. For optimal performance, avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; maintain recommended bend radius for Cat.8.1 cable types in rack installations.

Recommendations

Use this 0.5 m InLine Cat.8.1 patch cable for short-distance, high-bandwidth interconnects inside racks or between adjacent equipment. Combine with properly shielded patch panels and grounded rack systems to preserve shielding effectiveness and achieve the specified performance.
