length patch cord for dense racks

This 1 ft Cat 8 patch cord is built for installers who need maximum bandwidth in tight switch-to-server runs. The 24 AWG shielded construction supports 40 Gbps at 2 GHz, making it suitable for emerging 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T links in small or mid-size enterprise LANs.

S/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ45 ends

Pure copper conductors sit under aluminum foil and woven mesh shields, wrapped in a PVC jacket that resists wear in busy patch panels. Both RJ45 plugs are gold-plated for reliable contact, and the yellow jacket lets technicians trace cables quickly in crowded cabinets.

Verify port spacing and backward-compatible gear

The short length only reaches adjacent ports, so confirm your switch and server NICs sit side by side. The cable works with existing Cat 5, 5e, 6, 6a and 7 equipment, but devices must support 25GBASE-T or 40GBASE-T to use the full 40 Gbps capability.

Questions about this item

What does the 2 GHz rating mean for real-world throughput?

The 2 GHz (2000 MHz) bandwidth supports 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T links, so the cable can carry up to 40 Gbps when both ends negotiate that speed.

Will the 24 AWG shielded jacket fit standard keystone jacks and patch panels?

Yes, the 24 AWG conductors and S/FTP shielding terminate to standard RJ45 plugs that snap into any Cat 8-rated keystone or patch panel port.

Is there a specific orientation for the shielded plugs when crimping or seating them?

The gold-plated RJ45 connectors are keyed only by the tab; align the tab with the port notch and press until it clicks — no additional orientation step is required.
