InLine Patchkabel plat, U/FTP, Cat.8.1, TPE halogeenvrij, wit, 7,5m

The InLine Patch cable flat U/FTP Cat.8.1 TPE halogen-free white 7.5m is a flat network cable engineered for high-speed data transmission in constrained or visible routing environments. It conforms to Cat.8.1 performance class and uses U/FTP shielding to reduce crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference. The cable is terminated with standard RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts for reliable conductivity and is sheathed in halogen-free thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) for enhanced safety and reduced environmental impact. With a 7.5 metre length and a slim flat profile, the cable is suitable for office, data center edge connections, and home network installations where discreet cable routing is required.

Advantages

The flat design allows the cable to be routed under carpets, along skirting boards, or through narrow gaps while maintaining consistent electrical performance. U/FTP shielding around each pair plus an overall foil improves resistance to electromagnetic interference, supporting stable high-frequency signals. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts provide low contact resistance and corrosion resistance for long-term signal integrity. The halogen-free TPE jacket reduces toxic gas emissions in case of fire and offers flexibility and durability for repeated bending and installation.

Suitable for

• High-speed Ethernet links up to Cat.8.1 specification in short-reach scenarios
• Office and home wiring where a low-profile, flat cable is preferred
• Connections between switches, patch panels and active devices in visible or restricted routing paths

How to use

Route the flat patch cable along the desired path, ensuring bends remain gentle to avoid undue stress on the internal pairs. Insert the RJ-45 plugs fully into the device sockets until the latch clicks to secure the connection. For best performance, avoid running the cable parallel to sources of strong electromagnetic interference such as mains power cables or large electrical equipment. When installing under carpets or through narrow gaps, verify that the cable is not pinched or sharply kinked.

Recommendations

For optimal signal integrity, use this Cat.8.1 flat cable for short-reach, high-frequency links and keep overall cable lengths within manufacturer guidance for Cat.8.1 deployments. Combine with properly shielded networking equipment and maintain secure RJ-45 connections to preserve performance.
