Cat8.1 U/FTP slim patch cable 10-pack

This Intellinet Cat8.1 U/FTP slim Ethernet cable comes in a 10-pack of 5 ft gray cords. Each cable uses 100% bare copper conductors and 50 micro-inch gold-plated RJ45 contacts. The U/FTP foil shielding wraps every twisted pair for low noise. Snag-free boots protect the connectors during pulls.

40 Gbps at 2 GHz bandwidth headroom

The cables meet Cat8.1 Class I requirements under ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173-1, supporting 40G and 25G speeds at 2000 MHz. They handle 25GBase-T and 40GBase-T links in Top-of-Rack and Middle-of-Row data-centre runs. The 30 AWG stranded conductors keep the cord flexible for tight bends. Longer horizontal runs beyond the standard channel length will exceed the spec.

Low-profile build aids airflow and cooling

The ultra-thin diameter reduces bulk in dense cabinets, improving air circulation around active gear. Stranded copper and foil shielding add minimal weight while resisting EMI in crowded trays. PoE++ up to IEEE 802.3bt is supported for powered devices. The slim jacket offers less mechanical protection than a standard Cat8 cord in harsh environments.

Questions about this item

Will these Cat8.1 cables work with my existing Cat6a patch panel and 10GBase-T switch ports?

Yes, the Cat8.1 Class I specification is backward compatible with Cat6a and Cat6 infrastructure, so the 2 GHz bandwidth and 40G capability will operate at the highest speed your existing 10GBase-T ports and patch panel support.

How can I verify each cable is performing to the 2000 MHz rating after installation?

Use a cable certifier or qualifier that tests to ISO/IEC 11801 Class I limits; a passing result at 2000 MHz confirms the U/FTP shielding, 30 AWG stranded copper, and gold-plated contacts are all functioning correctly.

Does the 10-pack include only the five-foot gray cables or are Velcro ties and a cable tester also supplied?

The pack contains ten 5 ft gray Cat8.1 U/FTP slim patch cables with snag-free boots and 50 micro-inch gold-plated contacts; Velcro ties, a tester, or any other accessories are not included and must be purchased separately.
