Patchcord cat. 8.1 S/FTP LSZH CU 0.25m red fluke passed PCF8-10CU-0025-R

High-performance connection for demanding networks

This Category 8.1 patch cord is a solid choice for modern network installations, especially in data centers. It provides stable and fast data transmission, which is crucial in environments where every second counts. The S/FTP construction effectively minimizes interference, and the use of copper (CU) guarantees good conductivity.

Construction and protection

The patch cord is designed for reliability and durability. It utilizes several layers of protection:

• Copper conductor: Ensures efficient Ethernet signal transfer.
• Sheath: Protects the conductor from mechanical damage and external factors.
• Insulation: Separates individual wire pairs, minimizing the risk of interference.
• Foil shielding: Additional barrier against electromagnetic interference (EMI).
• Metal braid: Increases resistance to damage and further reduces interference.

The use of S/FTP shielding (Shielded/Foiled Twisted Pair) is a significant advantage – it provides better protection against interference than UTP cables, which translates to a more stable connection and higher data transmission quality.

Specification and application

The patch cord is 25 cm long, making it ideal for short connections in rack cabinets or patch panels. Made of LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) materials – i.e., low flammability and halogen-free – increases safety in the event of a fire, limiting the emission of toxic gases. The cable with a diameter of 6.2 mm with strands of 7 x 0.16 mm (AWG 26) is durable and resistant to mechanical damage. The maximum operating frequency of up to 2000 MHz confirms its suitability in networks requiring high bandwidth. The red color makes it easier to identify the cable in the installation. It has passed Fluke tests, which guarantees its compliance with industry standards and high quality of workmanship.
