Netwerkkabel S/CONN 08-42052 geel Cat8.1 U/FTP (STP)

The ShiverPeaks Networking Cable S/CONN 08-42052 Yellow Cat8.1 U/FTP (STP) is a high-performance Ethernet cable designed for demanding network environments. Compliant with Cat8.1 signaling, the cable uses U/FTP shielding to reduce crosstalk and external interference while RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts provide stable electrical contact and low contact resistance. The yellow jacket makes the cable easy to identify and route within patch panels, racks, and structured cabling installations.

Advantages

The cable supports very high data rates and is built to maintain signal integrity across short to medium link lengths typical for data center links and high-speed workstations. U/FTP (individually foil-shielded pairs within an overall braid or shield) minimizes pair-to-pair interference and external noise, improving throughput consistency. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts enhance corrosion resistance and ensure reliable mating with standard Ethernet ports. A durable outer jacket and precise termination reduce attenuation and preserve performance in professional and residential setups.

Suitable for

• High-speed server and switch interconnects in data centers and server rooms
• Workstations requiring low-latency, high-bandwidth connections
• Structured cabling installations in offices and commercial buildings
• Home labs and small office networks with demanding throughput needs

Key specifications

• Category: Cat8.1 signaling suitable for frequencies up to the Cat8.1 specification
• Shielding: U/FTP — each pair foil-shielded with overall shield for reduced interference
• Connector type: RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts for improved conductivity and corrosion resistance
• Color: Yellow jacket for easy identification and cable management
• Cable use: Designed for high-bandwidth, short to medium reach Ethernet links

How to use

Install the cable by plugging the RJ-45 connectors into compatible Ethernet ports on switches, routers, network interface cards or patch panels. Route the cable using standard cable management practices to avoid sharp bends, excessive tension, and proximity to strong electromagnetic sources. Verify link status and speed in network device interfaces after connection. For best performance, keep individual link lengths within recommended ranges for Cat8.1 deployments and avoid kinking or crushing the cable.

Recommendations

Use this Cat8.1 U/FTP cable for short to medium runs where maximum throughput and low interference are required. Pair it with compatible high-speed networking equipment and properly terminated patch panels to realize the cable’s performance. Avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines and follow industry-standard installation practices for shielding effectiveness.
