Netwerkkabel S/CONN 08-43045 zwart 3 m Cat8.1 U/FTP

The S/CONN 08-43045 Black 3 m Cat8.1 U/FTP networking cable by ShiverPeaks is a high-performance connection cable designed for demanding network environments. Built to Cat8.1 standard with U/FTP shielding and RJ-45 connectors on both ends, this 3-meter cable supports very high data throughput and reduced electromagnetic interference while maintaining a compact, flexible form factor and a black outer jacket that integrates unobtrusively into residential or professional installations.

Advantages

This Cat8.1 cable provides increased bandwidth capacity and improved signal integrity compared with lower-category cables, thanks to individual foil shielding around each twisted pair and an overall screened construction. The U/FTP shielding minimizes crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference, supporting stable connections in crowded or electrically noisy environments. The standard RJ-45 terminations ensure compatibility with common network equipment while the 3 m length offers a balance between reach and neat cable management.

Suitable for

• Connecting servers, switches and routers in data closets or server rooms
• High-speed home or office LAN setups requiring low latency and high bandwidth
• Short-run connections between network appliances, patch panels and wall sockets

Key specifications

• Category: Cat8.1 — suitable for high-frequency data transmission
• Shielding: U/FTP — individually foiled pairs with overall screening
• Connector type: RJ-45 on both ends for standard Ethernet ports
• Length: 3 meters
• Outer color: Black

How to use

Plug the RJ-45 connectors into the Ethernet ports of your devices such as switches, routers or network adapters. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a secure electrical connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and places with excessive mechanical stress; keep it separated from high-power cabling where possible to further reduce interference. For best results, use this cable for direct device-to-device or patch-panel connections within its 3 m length.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable within structured cabling installations or short-range links where Cat8.1 performance is required. Avoid repeated tight bending at the connector ends and maintain proper strain relief. When connecting to legacy devices, confirm that both ends support the target network speeds; the cable is backward compatible with lower Ethernet categories but overall throughput will be limited by the slowest device in the link.
