## Summary description

Extralink Cat.8.1 S/FTP network cable with a length of 5 meters, designed for high-speed data transmission up to 40 Gbps. Features copper conductors and S/FTP shielding to minimize electromagnetic interference. This blue patchcord is ideal for connecting high-performance networking devices, data centers, and professional LAN infrastructures.

## Long description

The Extralink Cat.8.1 S/FTP network cable with a length of 5 meters is designed to provide high-speed data transmission up to 40 Gbps for demanding networking environments. Featuring robust copper conductors and advanced S/FTP shielding, this blue patchcord minimizes electromagnetic interference and ensures stable connectivity for professional setups.
Advantages
This network cable delivers superior performance by supporting data rates up to 40 Gbps and operating at higher frequencies, making it significantly faster and more future-proof than standard Category 6 cables. The inclusion of individual pair shielding and overall braid shielding offers excellent protection against electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, ensuring reliable signal integrity even in densely cabled spaces. Built with pure copper conductors, the patchcord supports Power over Ethernet applications to power connected network equipment efficiently, while the gold-plated connectors ensure durable and corrosion-resistant contact.
Suitable for
Connecting high-performance networking devices in data centers
Professional local area network infrastructures requiring high bandwidth
Industrial network environments with high electromagnetic interference
Powering network devices via Power over Ethernet standards
When it may not be suitable
This cable may not be necessary for standard home networks or basic internet browsing where speeds do not exceed lower gigabit thresholds. Additionally, the 5-meter fixed length might be too short for long-distance building runs or too long for tightly spaced desktop connections.
Key specifications
Length: 5 meters
Cable type: Cat.8.1 S/FTP
Maximum data transmission speed: Up to 40 Gbps
Conductor material: Pure copper
Shielding: S/FTP (shielded twisted pair with overall foil and braid)
Color: Blue
Connectors: Shielded and gold-plated
How to use
To use the Extralink Cat.8.1 S/FTP network cable, insert one RJ45 connector into the LAN port of your networking device, switch, router, or computer, and plug the other end into the corresponding port of the target device until you hear a secure click. Ensure the cable is routed safely without sharp bends, excessive tension, or pinching to maintain optimal signal performance and prevent physical damage to the internal copper conductors or shielding layers.
What to consider before purchase
Verify that your networking hardware supports Cat.8.1 specifications to fully utilize the 40 Gbps transmission speeds.
Measure the required distance between devices to ensure the 5-meter length is appropriate for your layout.
Confirm whether your equipment requires shielded twisted pair cabling to mitigate local interference.
Usage recommendations: Handle the patchcord with care during installation, avoiding tight radius bends and pulling forces that could compromise the shielding or copper internal wires. Store spare cables in a dry, dust-free environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
