  • Product colorRed
  • Supports 40 Gbps speeds at 2000 MHz bandwidth
  • Cat 8.1 compliant per ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173-1

Ultra-thin 10-pack for dense racks

These 0.5 ft red Cat8.1 U/FTP patch cables come in a 10-pack designed for tight Top-of-Rack and Middle-of-Row installations. The ultra-thin stranded construction improves airflow and simplifies cable management in crowded network cabinets. They suit data-center technicians who need high-density, flexible patching.

40 Gbps ceiling and 2 GHz bandwidth

The Cat8.1 Class I rating supports 25GBase-T and 40GBase-T speeds up to 2000 MHz per ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173-1. Aluminum foil around each pair and 50 micro-inch gold contacts maintain signal integrity at those frequencies. Runs beyond 30 metres or links requiring higher categories will exceed the standard's guaranteed performance.

Ten short links for high-speed patching

Each 0.5 ft cord handles 40 Gbps and PoE++ (IEEE 802.3bt) across very short rack-to-rack or switch-to-server hops. The 30 AWG stranded copper and snag-free boots survive repeated re-patching in dense racks. They cannot span longer cabinet rows or replace horizontal cabling runs that need greater reach.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 0.5 ft red 10-pack or a different length for my rack?

The 0.5 ft length suits very short links inside a single rack; choose a longer cable only if the run exceeds half a foot.

What does 40 Gbps mean when the cable is installed in a switch?

It supports 40GBase-T and 25GBase-T speeds up to 30 metres, so a 0.5 ft patch will deliver full line rate between ToR or MoR ports.

How does the Cat8.1 U/FTP design limit real-world performance?

The foil-shielded pairs and 2 GHz rating meet ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173-1 Class I, capping at 40 Gbps over the full certified channel length.
