Netwerkkabel ShiverPeaks BS08-41060-4 Cat8.1 F/FTP 7,5 m grijs

The ShiverPeaks BS08-41060-4 Cat8.1 F/FTP networking cable is a 7.5 m grey patch cable designed for high-speed data transmission in modern wired networks. It uses Cat8.1 specification and F/FTP shielding to provide improved signal integrity and reduced electromagnetic interference. Both ends are terminated with standard RJ-45 connectors suitable for switches, routers, patch panels and network devices that accept 8P8C modular plugs.

Advantages

This Cat8.1 F/FTP cable offers enhanced bandwidth and performance compared with lower-category cables, enabling stable high-frequency signals and lower crosstalk. The foil-shielded pairs plus an overall braid (F/FTP) help protect against external noise sources, making the cable suitable for environments with potential interference. The 7.5 m length provides flexibility for rack-to-desk or patch-panel connections while the robust RJ-45 terminations ensure consistent contact and compatibility with standard network ports.

Suitable for

• Data centre patching and horizontal runs between racks and equipment within a single room
• High-speed LAN connections for gigabit and multi-gigabit switches and network interfaces
• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch short links requiring high bandwidth and low latency
• Environments with nearby electronic equipment where shielding reduces interference

Key specifications

• Category: Cat8.1 performance class suitable for high-frequency Ethernet
• Shielding: F/FTP (foil shield on each pair with an overall foil/braid combination)
• Length: 7.5 metres
• Connector type: RJ-45 (8P8C) on both ends
• Colour: Grey
• Typical applications: Short-reach high-speed Ethernet links, data centre patching, LAN backbones

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to the network port of your switch, router or network interface and the other end to the corresponding device or patch panel. Ensure ports are powered down or link activity is minimal when plugging or unplugging to avoid transient disruptions. Verify link speed and duplex settings on connected devices after installation to confirm expected multi-gigabit operation. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and minimize proximity to strong sources of electromagnetic noise where possible.

Recommendations

For best results, use the cable within its rated length for short to medium patch runs and avoid sharp bends with a bend radius smaller than manufacturer guidance. In installations with high-density cabling, maintain separation from power lines and large electrical equipment to preserve shielding effectiveness. Test links with appropriate network testers to confirm performance and continuity after installation.
