Equip Cat 8.1 S/FTP (PIMF) patchkabel, LSOH, 0,5 m, rood

The Equip Cat 8.1 S/FTP Patch Cord is built from carefully selected materials and tested to meet industry standards. Designed for high-speed Ethernet, this Cat 8.1 patch cable supports up to 40000 Mbit/s and 40GBase-T applications. It comes in a 0.5 m length with RJ-45 connectors on both ends and gold-plated contacts. S/FTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference, making the cable suitable for demanding network environments while the red jacket allows easy identification in cable runs.

Advantages

The Cat 8.1 S/FTP design provides improved signal-to-noise margin and higher bandwidth compared with lower-category cables. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts ensure reliable connectivity and corrosion resistance. Compact 0.5 m length minimizes cable clutter in patch panels and rack setups, and the S/FTP shielding offers effective protection against crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference.

Suitable for

• High-speed server-to-switch connections in data centres
• 40GBase-T network segments and short-range high-bandwidth links
• Patch panels and rack-mounted networking equipment
• Environments requiring shielded cabling to reduce interference

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the RJ-45 connector into the corresponding port on your network device until it clicks. Use the 0.5 m patch cable to connect nearby devices such as switches, servers or patch panels. Ensure both ends are fully seated for secure contact. For best performance, avoid sharp bends and keep the cable away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference where possible.

Recommendations

Use the Equip Cat 8.1 patch cord for short, high-bandwidth links and within shielded or controlled cabling environments. Match shielding type (S/FTP) with connected equipment and grounding practices to maintain optimal performance.
