Cavo patch Equip Cat 8.1 S/FTP (PIMF), LSOH, 0,5 m, grigio

The equip® Cat 8.1 S/FTP Patch Cord is manufactured from high-quality materials and tested to meet industry standards. With support for 40GBase-T and a data rate up to 40000 Mbit/s, this 0.5 m RJ-45 patch cable with gold-plated contacts and S/FTP shielding provides increased bandwidth and improved signal-to-noise margin for demanding network environments.

Advantages

The Cat 8.1 construction with S/FTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, enabling ultrahigh and low-error performance. Short 0.5 m length ensures minimal attenuation in rack or cabinet patching. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts improve connectivity reliability and corrosion resistance, while the LSOH jacket offers flexibility and safer installation in enclosed spaces.

Suitable for

• High-speed server-to-switch connections in data centers
• 40GBase-T network links and aggregation ports
• Patch panels and rack-mounted network equipment
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network device (switch, router or server) and the other RJ-45 plug to the corresponding port on the patch panel or adjacent device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click. Use the 0.5 m length for short-distance patching inside racks or cabinets to minimize signal loss and maintain cable management. Do not bend the cable beyond its specified minimum bend radius.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat 8.1 S/FTP patch cord for short copper links (up to the supported distance for 40GBase-T) in controlled data centre environments and avoid running it parallel to strong power lines. Inspect connectors before installation and replace if contacts or latch clips are damaged.
