LandonX™ Category 8.1 Data Cable

Hermesys LandonX™ series S/FTP Category 8.1 is a high-performance shielded network cable designed for ultra-high-speed data transmission. It features 4 individually shielded twisted pairs (FTP) with an overall braided shield (S), ensuring superior protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk. With support for 25 Gbps to 40 Gbps data rates and 2GHz (2000MHz) bandwidth, this cable is ideal for data centers, enterprise networking, and high-speed server interconnections. The durable PVC sheath provides mechanical protection and is suitable for indoor installations.

 

Features:

  • Category 8.1 compliant – supports speeds up to 40Gbps
  • S/FTP shielding – enhanced EMI and crosstalk protection
  • PVC sheath – flexible, durable, and easy to install
  • Optimized for data centers and enterprise networks
