CAT8.1 S/FTP LSZH Patch Lead 26AWG Snagless, 5m, Black

The fastest copper patch lead we sell. CAT8.1 is rated to 2000MHz, four times the bandwidth of CAT6A, and carries 25 and 40 Gigabit Ethernet over links of up to 30m, so every length in this range runs at full speed. Each twisted pair is foil wrapped and the four pairs sit inside an overall braid (S/FTP), finished with metal shielded RJ45 plugs and hooded snagless boots that protect the locking clip. The low smoke zero halogen jacket suits server rooms and enclosed spaces.
