Netwerkkabel ShiverPeaks SC08-41015 patchkabel Cat. 8.1 F/FTP PIMF 0,5 m zwart

The ShiverPeaks SC08-41015 Patch Cable Cat. 8.1 F/FTP PIMF 0.5m Black is a short, shielded network patch cable designed for high-speed, low-latency connections in confined installation spaces. With a 0.5 meter length and robust LSZH outer jacket in black, this Cat. 8.1 cable provides a compact solution for connecting switches, patch panels and servers where minimal signal degradation and restricted cable run lengths are required. Its foil/tinned copper braid shielding and pair-level internal shielding reduce electromagnetic and crosstalk interference, supporting stable data transmission for demanding network environments.

Advantages

The cable’s F/FTP PIMF (foil shielding with foil-wrapped pairs and pair insulated metal foil) construction offers enhanced protection against external noise and near-end crosstalk compared with unshielded alternatives. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and toxic gas emission in case of fire and maintains flexibility for routing in tight spaces. At 0.5 m length the patch cable minimizes excess slack in rack and cabinet setups, improving airflow and cable management. Its Category 8.1 design supports high-frequency performance suitable for contemporary high-bandwidth equipment.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Short links between network switches and patch panels in data centers and server rooms
• Direct connections from switches to high-performance servers or storage arrays
• Patch cabling in network racks where reduced cable length improves organization and airflow
• Environments requiring shielded cabling to limit electromagnetic interference (EMI)

Key specifications

• Category: Cat. 8.1
• Shielding: F/FTP with pair-level foil shielding (PIMF)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Color: Black
• Connector type: standard RJ45-compatible ends suitable for Cat. 8.1 performance
• Application: high-speed, short-distance patching in professional network environments

How to use

Install the patch cable by inserting the RJ45-compatible connectors into the appropriate ports on switches, patch panels or network devices until they click into place. Use the 0.5 m length for short cable runs inside racks or between adjacent equipment to avoid excess slack. Ensure connectors and ports are free of dust and debris prior to connection. When routing the cable, avoid excessive bending near the connector boots and respect the manufacturer’s recommended minimum bend radius to maintain signal integrity. Do not remove or modify the jacket or shielding.

Recommendations

Choose this Cat. 8.1 F/FTP PIMF cable for short, high-bandwidth links where shielding and LSZH properties are required. For best results in high-density racks, label both ends and plan cable paths to keep bend radii and strain minimal; replace the cable if connector damage or visible jacket wear is observed.
