Patchcord LANBERG S/FTP Cat.8.1 5 m LSZH CU, fluke passed, white

LANBERG S/FTP Cat.8.1 patchcord, 5 m length, with LSZH outer jacket and copper conductors. This shielded cable assembly is designed to deliver Category 8.1 performance for high-speed Ethernet and modern data center environments. The S/FTP construction provides individual foil shielding for each twisted pair plus an overall braid, reducing crosstalk and external interference. The LSZH (low-smoke zero-halogen) jacket minimizes toxic and corrosive emissions in case of fire, making the cable suitable for confined installations and areas with strict fire-safety requirements.

Advantages

The patchcord supports high-frequency transmission required for Category 8.1 and offers proven signal integrity thanks to pair-level foil and overall shielding. Fluke-passed testing confirms continuity and performance consistency, providing measurable verification for installers and technicians. The LSZH jacket and copper conductors ensure dependable electrical characteristics while reducing smoke and halogen output in emergency situations.

Suitable for

• High-speed server-to-switch connections in data centers
• Patch panels and switch ports requiring Category 8.1 performance
• Environments where low-smoke zero-halogen cabling is mandated
• Short-reach links in enterprise network racks and equipment closets

Key specifications

• Cable category: Category 8.1 (S/FTP)
• Length: 5 meters
• Conductor material: copper (CU)
• Shielding: foil per pair + overall braid
• Outer jacket: LSZH (low-smoke zero-halogen)
• Connector type: RJ45 (shielded)
• Performance: designed for high-frequency, high-speed Ethernet links

How to use

Connect one RJ45 shielded plug to the switch or patch panel port and the other to the server or network device port, ensuring that shielded connectors are properly mated to grounded shielded ports to maintain overall screening effectiveness. Route the patchcord through rack openings or cable management channels, avoiding tight bends and excessive mechanical stress. Verify link status and speed settings on network devices after installation and use fluke or equivalent certification tools if re-validation is required.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, maintain minimum bend radius as recommended by industry standards, avoid untwisting more than necessary when terminating, and ensure proper grounding of shielded ports. Use these patchcords for short-reach, high-bandwidth connections inside racks and follow local fire-safety regulations when deploying LSZH cabling.
