The PATCHBOX CONEX8STPRD is a modular networking cable cassette option for PATCHBOX frames, supplied as a red Cat6a U/FTP patch cable with RJ-45 connectors and a length of 0.8 m. The cable meets Cat6a performance and ISO standards, uses shielded pairs (U/FTP) for improved protection against electromagnetic interference, and has gold-plated contacts for reliable connectivity. It is designed to be used in PATCHBOX modular frames where cassettes can be exchanged quickly to adapt rack cabling.
