Nippon Labs Cat8.1 bulk cable 500 ft

This Nippon Labs Cat8.1 bulk Ethernet cable is a 500-foot spool of shielded twisted pair wiring designed for professional installers and data-centre technicians who terminate their own RJ45 ends. The S/FTP construction with overall tin-copper braid and CMR riser-rated jacket suits indoor vertical runs and short outdoor segments up to 30 metres.

Suits 25G and 40G short-run deployments

Installers needing 25G or 40G links over distances no longer than 30 metres will find the 23 AWG solid bare copper conductors and 2000 MHz bandwidth appropriate. Buyers who require longer channel lengths, pre-terminated patch cords, or plenum-rated CMP jacketing should look at alternative cable types.

Category 8.1 rating and 30-metre limit define use

The single specification that decides suitability is the Cat8.1 classification combined with the 30-metre maximum channel distance for 25G and 40G operation; exceeding this length will not meet the rated performance.

Questions about this item

What conduit size fits a 23 AWG S/FTP cable with overall tin-copper braiding?

The 23 AWG solid bare copper conductors and overall braid create a bulkier profile than unshielded cable, so allow extra clearance when pulling through conduit or raceway.

How do I terminate the individually shielded pairs and overall braid on an RJ45 plug?

Fold the overall tin-copper braid back over the jacket, then terminate each foil-shielded pair into the shielded RJ45 contacts; skipping the braid fold is the common error.

When should I replace a CMR-rated Cat8.1 run that supports 25 G and 40 G speeds?

Replace if the jacket shows cracks, the braid is corroded, or certification testing shows insertion loss exceeding the 2000 MHz channel limit for 30 metre runs.
