Netwerkkabel ShiverPeaks BS08-41013-2 Cat8.1 0,5m F/FTP

The ShiverPeaks BS08-41013-2 Cat8.1 0.5m F/FTP networking cable is designed for short, high-bandwidth connections in professional and home network environments. This half-meter cable supports Cat8.1 performance levels and uses F/FTP (foil over each pair plus overall foil) shielding to minimize electromagnetic interference. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors provide reliable contact and corrosion resistance for consistent high-speed data transfer.

Advantages

This Cat8.1 cable offers high-frequency performance suitable for multi-gigabit and 25/40 Gbps applications over short distances while the F/FTP shielding reduces crosstalk and external noise. The compact 0.5 m length is convenient for patching in dense rack or desktop setups, avoiding excess cable clutter. Gold-plated contacts enhance signal integrity and long-term connector reliability.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between switches, routers and servers in racks
• High-speed workstations or desktop networking where short runs are required
• Data center top-of-rack or shelf interconnects with Cat8.1 compatibility
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference where shielded cables are needed

Key specifications

• Category: Cat8.1 performance class
• Length: 0.5 m
• Cabling type: F/FTP (foil around each pair and overall foil)
• Connector type: RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Intended use: Short-range, high-frequency Ethernet connections (multi-gigabit, 25/40 Gbps capable over specified distances)
• Construction: Shielded twisted pairs for reduced crosstalk and external EMI protection

How to use

Connect one end of the cable to the RJ-45 port of your networking device and the other end to the target device, ensuring secure seating of the connectors. Use this 0.5 m cable for direct patching in racks, between adjacent devices, or for tidy desktop connections. Avoid sharp bends near the connector and do not exceed manufacturer-recommended bend radii to maintain shielding and pair integrity. For reliable performance, ensure both connected devices support the required transmission speeds and that channel components meet Cat8.1 requirements when used in a certified link.

Recommendations

For optimal results, use this short Cat8.1 F/FTP cable in environments where high-speed, shielded short links are required—such as top-of-rack connections or direct server-to-switch links. Keep cable runs short and avoid excessive coiling; match shielded terminations at both ends to preserve EMI protection.
