ACT Cat8 U/FTP (STP) verkkokaapeli FB8101 — 1 m, RJ-45–RJ-45, musta

ACT FB8101 is a 1 m Cat8 U/FTP (STP) slimline datacenter patch cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. It supports a maximum bandwidth of 2000 MHz (40 Gbit) and uses full copper 30 AWG conductors with 50 µin gold-plated RJ45 contacts. The slim 5 mm jacket and LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) material make it suitable for short high-speed links in racks and cabinets where improved airflow and reduced smoke/toxic gas emission are required.

Advantages

The slim 5 mm diameter reduces cable bulk and improves rack airflow compared with standard Cat8 patch cords. U/FTP shielding and gold-plated contacts provide improved crosstalk protection and reliable electrical contact. All cables are manufactured to international standards and 100% tested for quality assurance. The LSZH jacket lowers the risk of high concentrations of toxic gases in case of fire or overheating.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

This slimline cable uses 30 AWG conductors, which are thinner than the 22–28 AWG range commonly described in ISO/IEC and TIA standards. As a result, attenuation is higher—particularly at higher frequencies—so for longer runs or installations demanding the lowest possible attenuation, a thicker-gauge Cat8 or different cable type may be more appropriate.

Key specifications

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to a switch, router or other network device and the other end to the target device such as a NAS or server. Use for short, high-frequency links inside racks or between adjacent devices. Avoid excessive bending beyond the cable's minimum bend radius and keep the cable run within the recommended 1 m length to maintain optimal performance.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

Use this ACT Cat8 U/FTP slimline patch cable for short-distance, high-speed interconnects in data centers or dense cabinet environments where reduced cable diameter and LSZH material are desirable. For longer runs or when minimizing attenuation is critical, consider thicker-gauge alternatives.
