InLine patchkabel flad, U/FTP, Cat.8.1, TPE halogenfri, sort, 1 m

The InLine Patch cable flat U/FTP Cat.8.1 TPE halogen-free black 1m is a 1 metre network patch cable designed for high-speed data transmission in modern network environments. The flat cable profile allows for low-profile routing along walls, under carpets and behind furniture. U/FTP shielding around individual pairs reduces crosstalk and external interference, while RJ‑45 connectors with gold plating ensure reliable contact and signal integrity. The cable jacket is made from halogen-free TPE material for improved safety in case of fire and for compliance with installations that require low-smoke, halogen-free materials.

Advantages

The flat Cat.8.1 construction supports high bandwidth and is suitable for short-range, high-frequency links where space for cable routing is limited. U/FTP shielding provides pair-level protection against electromagnetic interference and helps maintain signal quality in dense cable environments. Gold-plated RJ‑45 connectors deliver consistent contact resistance and corrosion resistance over time. The halogen-free TPE jacket reduces hazardous gas emission in the event of a fire and provides flexible, durable handling for repeated cable movement and tight bends.

Suitable for

• Patch connections between network switches and servers in rack or desk installations
• High-speed workstations and small data centre links requiring Cat.8.1 performance
• Routes with limited space: along skirting boards, under carpets or behind furniture
• Environments where low-smoke, halogen-free cabling is preferred

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.8.1, optimized for high-frequency data transmission
• Shielding: U/FTP (overall unshielded with individually shielded pairs)
• Cable profile: flat for low-profile routing
• Length: 1 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Jacket material: halogen-free thermoplastic elastomer (TPE)
• Colour: black

How to use

Insert each RJ‑45 connector into the corresponding network port on devices such as switches, routers, network interface cards or patch panels until the latch clicks into place. Ensure both ends are fully seated to maintain optimal electrical contact. When routing the flat cable, run it along straight paths and avoid sharp kinks; the flat profile permits placement under carpets or against walls for discreet installation. For reliable performance, avoid tightly bundling this cable with high-power electrical lines and maintain recommended bend radii to prevent micro‑distortions of the conductor pairs.

Recommendations

For best results, use this Cat.8.1 flat patch cable for short links where high bandwidth and minimal interference are required. Verify connector orientation before inserting and keep cable runs within typical patch cable lengths to preserve signal integrity. Consider additional cable management (clips or adhesive channels) for clean routing and to reduce mechanical stress on connectors.
