  • 50 micron gold-plated contacts resist corrosion for lasting connections

What this cable does and who needs it

This Fuji Labs Cat8 S/FTP patch cable delivers up to 40 Gbps data rates and 2000 MHz bandwidth over a 3 ft run. It is built for installers and network builders who need certified 40G performance between switches, servers or workstations in a rack or at a desk.

Practical limits of the Cat8 standard

The TIA/EIA compliant design supports the full 40 Gbps specification only up to the standard channel length; beyond that distance the rate drops to lower categories. Backwards compatibility with Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6A and Cat7 hardware is guaranteed, but each link will negotiate to the lowest common capability.

The spec that decides fit

The 24 AWG stranded pure copper conductors with 50 micron gold plated RJ45 contacts determine whether the cable fits your patch panel density and mating-cycle requirements. Buyers who need solid-core cable for permanent in-wall runs or a different conductor gauge should select another product.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 3 ft length or a longer run for my desk setup?

The cable is 3 ft long; choose a longer run only if the distance between devices exceeds that length.

What does the 2000 MHz rating actually deliver when I plug it in?

It supports up to 2000 MHz bandwidth, enabling up to 40 Gbps data rates on compatible 40GBASE-T hardware.

How does the RJ45 connector with 50 micron gold contacts affect the link?

The RJ45 plugs use 50 micron gold-plated contacts for low-resistance, corrosion-resistant connections across all eight pins.
