Ten short blue Cat8 patch cables with gold RJ45 plugs

Nippon Labs

Nippon Labs 60CAT8-1-24BU-10P network ethernet cable

SKU CH-R33S-W38YZ MPN 60CAT8-1-24BU-10P

A ten-pack of 1 ft shielded Cat 8 patch cords with 24 AWG copper, 2 GHz bandwidth and 40 Gbps data rate

  • Cable category8
  • First connectorRJ45
  • Second connectorRJ45
  • Conductor gauge24 AWG
  • Product typeNetwork Ethernet Cables
  • Overall length1 ft (0.3 m)
  • Supports 40 Gbps speeds for demanding 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T networks
  • 2 GHz bandwidth enables high-frequency data transfer over copper conductors
  • S/FTP shielding with individual foil and overall braid protects against interference
  • 50 µm gold-plated RJ45 contacts resist corrosion for reliable connectivity
  • Backwards compatible with Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a and Cat7 equipment

Ready for 25G and 40G networks

This ten-pack of Cat 8 patch cords is built for installers and IT teams deploying 25GBASE-T or 40GBASE-T links. Each 1 ft blue cable uses stranded 24 AWG pure copper conductors and S/FTP shielding to meet the 2 GHz bandwidth ceiling. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts and snagless boots simplify dense rack work.

Thermals noise and power

Passive copper construction adds no heat, noise or power draw to the link. The PVC jacket is CM rated for in-wall runs, and the overall braid plus per-pair foil contain alien crosstalk without active components. Signal integrity stays within spec across the full 2000 MHz range.

Deciding specification: 2 GHz bandwidth

The 2000 MHz rating is the single figure that determines whether this cable supports emerging 25G and 40G copper standards. Buyers who need only 1G or 10G over longer runs will find Category 6A or 7 more cost-effective and easier to terminate.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 1 ft Cat8 cable and avoid damaging the snagless RJ45 tabs?

Align the RJ45 plug with the port, press until the soft flex push tab clicks, and route the PVC CM rated jacket so the molded strain relief absorbs any bend without pinching the 24 AWG stranded copper pairs.

When will the 50 µm gold plated contacts or the S/FTP shielding need replacement?

The 50 µm gold plated contacts and the individual foil plus overall braid shielding are built for the cable's lifetime; replacement is only needed if the jacket is cut or a connector tab breaks off.

What limit appears first when running sustained 40 Gbps traffic over this 1 ft link?

The 2000 MHz (2 GHz) bandwidth ceiling of the Cat8 specification is the first limit; the 24 AWG stranded copper and S/FTP construction support the full 40 Gbps rate within that frequency bound.
