InLine patchkabel S/FTP PiMF Cat.8.1 halogeenvrij 2000MHz blauw, 1m

The InLine Patch Cable S/FTP PiMF Cat.8.1 halogen free 2000MHz blue 1m is a 1-metre high-frequency Ethernet patch lead designed for modern copper-based network links. Constructed with S/FTP (shielded/foil twisted pair) and pair-in-metal-foil (PiMF) shielding, the cable provides enhanced protection against electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. Halogen-free jacket material reduces harmful emissions in case of fire, making it suitable for environments where safety and low smoke are required. Both ends terminate in standard RJ-45 connectors to ensure compatibility with typical network equipment.

Advantages

The cable supports frequencies up to 2000 MHz and is specified to Cat.8.1 performance levels, enabling high data throughput and low latency in short-reach applications. S/FTP PiMF shielding offers robust EMI rejection and improved signal integrity compared with unshielded or partially shielded cables. The halogen-free outer jacket lowers toxic gas and smoke output under thermal stress. With a 1 m length and clear RJ-45 terminations, the cable is convenient for patch panels, switches, and rack-mounted devices while the blue colour allows easy visual identification in cable runs.

Suitable for

• Short-reach high-speed links between switches, patch panels and servers in data centres
• Shielded office or industrial LAN installations where EMI protection is required
• Rack-mounted equipment and structured cabling patch connections
• Environments where low-smoke, halogen-free materials are preferred for safety

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.8.1
• Shielding type: S/FTP with PiMF (pair-in-metal-foil)
• Maximum frequency: 2000 MHz
• Length: 1 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Jacket material: halogen-free
• Colour: blue

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet ports of your networking equipment until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Use the 1 m cable for connections inside racks, between adjacent patch panels, or to link a switch and a server where a short, shielded patch lead is required. Ensure rack environments maintain proper grounding and that shielded connectors and ports are compatible with each other to preserve the cable's shielding effectiveness.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, route the S/FTP PiMF cable away from strong sources of electrical noise and avoid sharp bends or kinks that could damage the internal pairs. Verify that connected equipment supports Cat.8.1 or equivalent high-frequency cabling standards and that patch panels or keystone jacks maintain proper shield continuity. Use in short-reach applications as intended to achieve the specified bandwidth and signal integrity.
