Cat8 0.5 ft S/FTP Cable

This Cat8 RJ45 patch cable measures 0.5 ft and uses 28AWG stranded pure copper conductors with S/FTP shielding. It supports frequencies up to 2 GHz and data rates up to 40 Gbps. The 50 micron gold plated contacts and T568B wiring ensure reliable connectivity for 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T networks.

Check Ports and Switch Speed

Verify that your router, switch or network card has RJ45 ports capable of 25 Gbps or 40 Gbps operation to use the full bandwidth. Ensure the 0.5 ft length is sufficient for the intended device spacing. The cable is backwards compatible with Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6A and Cat7 equipment at their rated speeds.

Replaces Older Category Cables

This cable upgrades Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6A or Cat7 patch cords when you need 2 GHz bandwidth and 40 Gbps throughput for short runs. The jump is worth it when deploying 25GBASE-T or 40GBASE-T links between servers, switches or workstations. It is not for installations requiring longer cable runs or lower category budgets.
