White Cat8 Ethernet cable, .5 ft long, shielded RJ45 connectors, 26 AWG

Nippon Labs

Nippon Labs 60CAT8-0.5-26WT network ethernet cable

SKU CH-Z4E2-4N349 MPN 60CAT8-0.5-26WT

A 0.5 ft Cat 8 patch cable with double-shielded 26 AWG conductors, gold-plated RJ45 plugs, and a weatherproof white jacket rated for 2000 MHz and 40 Gbps

  • Cable category8
  • First connectorRJ45
  • Second connectorRJ45
  • Conductor gauge26 AWG
  • Product typeNetwork Ethernet Cables
  • Overall length0.5 ft (0.15 m)
  • Supports 40 Gbps transfer speeds for demanding networks
  • 2000 MHz bandwidth enables high-frequency data transmission
  • 26 AWG stranded pure copper conductors reduce signal loss
  • S/FTP shielding with foil and braid blocks interference
  • 50 µm gold-plated RJ45 contacts resist corrosion

Ideal for short, high-speed links

This Cat 8 patch cable is built for users who need up to 40 Gbps throughput across a very short run. Its .5 ft length suits rack-to-panel or device-to-switch connections where excess slack is undesirable. The 26 AWG stranded pure copper conductors keep the cable flexible for tight routing.

Shielded construction for clean signals

Each of the four twisted pairs is wrapped in aluminium foil with an overall braid shield, and the RJ45 plugs carry 50 µm gold-plated contacts. A moulded strain-relief boot and snagless push tab prevent latch damage during repeated insertion. The PVC jacket is rated for in-wall and outdoor exposure.

2 GHz bandwidth enables 25G and 40GBASE-T

The cable is specified to 2000 MHz, the frequency ceiling that defines Cat 8 performance and supports emerging 25 Gbps and 40 Gbps copper standards. It remains fully backward compatible with existing Cat 5e, Cat 6, Cat 6A and Cat 7 infrastructure.

Questions about this item

What bandwidth does the Cat8 cable support and what data rate does that enable?

The cable is rated for up to 2000 MHz bandwidth, which enables a maximum data rate of up to 40Gbps.

What are the physical dimensions and shielding of the conductors?

It uses 26 AWG stranded pure copper conductors, each pair foil shielded with an overall braid shield, in a white PVC jacket.

How do you connect the RJ45 plugs without damaging the latch?

Press the soft flex push tab to release the lock before pulling; the snagless moulded strain relief prevents the latch from catching on obstacles.
