Network Cable IT-BUDGET Vollkupfer Premium Patch Cable Flex AWG 26 Cat.8.1 2000 MHz halogen-free PoE+ 40GBit yellow 2m

The IT-BUDGET Vollkupfer Premium Patch Cable Flex AWG 26 Cat.8.1 2000 MHz halogen-free PoE+ 40GBit yellow 2m is a high-performance network patch cable designed for demanding LAN environments. Constructed from solid copper conductors and engineered to Category 8.1 specifications, this 2 meter cable supports extremely high bandwidth up to 2000 MHz and data rates up to 40 Gbit/s. Its halogen-free jacket reduces toxic gas emissions in the event of fire, making it suitable for indoor installations where safety and air quality matter. The cable also supports Power over Ethernet (PoE+) for delivering power to compatible devices while transmitting data.

Advantages

The cable provides full copper conductors for optimal signal integrity and reduced attenuation at high frequencies. Category 8.1 shielding and construction minimize crosstalk and external interference, ensuring stable connections in dense cabling environments. The halogen-free sheath improves safety in enclosed spaces and complies with installations that require low-smoke, halogen-free materials. PoE+ compatibility allows powering networked devices directly over the link, removing the need for separate power cabling in many use cases.

Suitable for

• High-speed server-to-switch connections in data centers and server rooms
• Backbone links and switch-to-switch uplinks in enterprise networks
• Powering and connecting PoE+ devices such as IP cameras and wireless access points
• Environments that require halogen-free cabling for safety and compliance
• Short-range 40 Gbit/s connections and test setups requiring high bandwidth

How to use

Connect one end of the patch cable to the RJ45 port of your network device and the other end to the corresponding switch, router or patch panel port matched for Cat.8.1 performance. Ensure both connected ports and the intermediate hardware support the required data rate and PoE+ if you intend to deliver power. Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid running it alongside strong electrical interference sources to maintain signal integrity. For stable 40 Gbit/s links, keep the cable length within recommended short-range limits and verify settings on network equipment.

Usage recommendations

Use the cable for short, high-bandwidth links between compatible equipment and in installations where halogen-free materials are required. Confirm port and device compatibility for Cat.8.1 and PoE+ before deployment. Avoid excessive mechanical stress and maintain bend radius as specified by rack and cabling standards to preserve performance.
