Netwerkkabel ShiverPeaks BS08-41000-4 0,25 m Cat8.1 F/FTP

The ShiverPeaks BS08-41000-4 0.25m Cat8.1 F/FTP networking cable is designed for short connection runs where high data throughput and signal integrity are required. This quarter-metre cable supports Cat8.1 performance parameters, incorporates F/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference, and uses gold-plated RJ-45 connectors to maintain reliable contact and low contact resistance. It is intended for linking switches, routers, servers, or network interface cards in compact setups such as rack patch panels, desktop connections, or high-speed workstations.

Advantages

The cable's Cat8.1 specification ensures support for very high bandwidths and frequencies suitable for modern LAN environments. F/FTP shielding—foil around each pair plus an overall foil—provides enhanced protection from crosstalk and external interference, improving signal stability in electrically noisy environments. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors offer corrosion resistance and consistent electrical contact for repeated insertions, while the short 0.25 m length minimizes latency and potential signal degradation over the connection.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between network devices in server racks and patch panels
• Direct connections between high-speed switches and network appliances
• Desktop or workstation links where cable length must be minimal
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference requiring shielded cables

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat8.1
• Length: 0.25 m
• Shielding: F/FTP (overall foil plus individually foil‑shielded pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Typical use: short-range, high-bandwidth Ethernet links

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the Ethernet port of a switch, router, server or network card and the other end to the corresponding device port. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click to secure a solid mechanical and electrical connection. Because of the short 0.25 m length, plan device placement to avoid tension or bending at the connectors; use gentle routing to maintain the cable bend radius and preserve shielding integrity.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this cable for short point-to-point links inside racks or between closely positioned devices. Avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling; maintain proper connector seating. In installations with mixed unshielded and shielded cables, ensure that connected devices and patch panels support shield termination to benefit from F/FTP shielding.
