Nippon Labs 60CAT8-1-26RD Cat8 network ethernet cable 1 ft Red 26AWG S/FTP 2000MHz 40Gbps

1 ft Cat8 patch cable for 40 Gbps links

This 1 ft Cat8 patch cable is built for 40 Gbps Ethernet over copper using RJ45 connectors. The 26 AWG stranded pure copper conductors and S/FTP shielding support 2 GHz bandwidth for emerging 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T networks. It suits installers who need a short, high-frequency link between a switch, router, server or workstation in a rack or wall plate. The red PVC jacket provides quick visual identification in dense cable runs.

Sustained 2 GHz operation with full shielding

Each of the four twisted pairs is wrapped in aluminum foil and the overall bundle is covered by a braided shield, suppressing alien crosstalk and external noise during continuous high-frequency transmission. Gold-plated contacts rated at 50 µm resist oxidation that would otherwise degrade signal integrity over time. Molded strain relief and a snagless boot protect the connector geometry when the cable is routed through tight pathways or repositioned repeatedly. The construction meets TIA/EIA requirements verified by UL and ETL and is RoHS compliant.

1 ft length fixes the reach before purchase

At exactly 1 ft the cable only bridges equipment that sits side by side or shares a single rack unit. Buyers who need longer runs between rooms, floors or cabinets cannot use this length and must select a different cable. The fixed distance is the single specification that decides whether the part fits the physical topology of the installation.
