Cavo patch ShiverPeaks Helos Cat 8.1 2,0 m F/FTP Twisted Pair doppio schermato

The ShiverPeaks Helos Cat 8.1 patch cable is a 2.0 m F/FTP twisted pair cable designed for short-run, high-speed Ethernet connections. Constructed with double shielding around each pair and an overall shield, this cable reduces crosstalk and electromagnetic interference (EMI) to support demanding network environments such as data centers and professional LAN installations. The cable is intended for applications requiring Cat 8.1 performance and reliable copper connectivity between equipment in server cabinets and network racks.

Advantages

The double-shielded F/FTP design provides improved protection against external interference and pair-to-pair crosstalk compared with unshielded alternatives, enabling stable transmission for high-frequency signals. The 2.0 m length offers a balance between reach and minimal signal attenuation for short interconnects. Gold-plated connector contacts and a strain-relief boot contribute to reliable mating, reduced contact corrosion and longer connector life in repeated use scenarios. The cable construction follows industry pinout conventions for straightforward installation in existing infrastructures.

Suitable for

• Short-run connections in data centers and server cabinets
• High-speed Ethernet links requiring Cat 8.1 performance
• Professional LAN installations and patch panels
• Environments where reduced EMI and crosstalk are necessary

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat 8.1
• Length: 2.0 m
• Construction: F/FTP twisted pair with pair and overall shielding
• Conductor material: solid copper conductors
• Conductor gauge: AWG 26 (4 pairs, 2 conductors per pair)
• Connector contacts: gold-plated
• Jacket: low-smoke, halogen-free (LSZH)
• Wiring: 1:1 pinout according to EIA/TIA 568B
• Application support: 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T signals

How to use

Connect one RJ45 end to the network device or switch port and the other end to the target equipment or patch panel using the standard 1:1 EIA/TIA 568B pinout. Ensure secure seating of connectors until the latch clicks and route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive mechanical strain. For best performance, keep cable length within the intended 2.0 m span and avoid tight bundles with power cables or strong EMI sources.

Recommendations

Use this Cat 8.1 patch cable for short-distance, high-frequency links inside racks and cabinets. Maintain bend radius recommendations from the manufacturer, avoid repeated flexing at the connector boot, and install in shielded racks or with proper grounding where overall cable shield continuity is required.
