Nippon Labs Cat8 1 ft Patch Cable

This one-foot Cat8 Ethernet cable uses 26 AWG shielded twisted-pair conductors and gold-plated RJ45 connectors. It is rated for 2000 MHz bandwidth and supports data rates up to 40 Gbps. The yellow PVC jacket is weatherproof and rated for in-wall or outdoor installation. Snagless boots and molded strain relief protect the connectors during repeated moves.

Suited for short high-speed links in home

Builders who need a compact patch cord for a router, switch, gaming console or NAS at 25 GBASE-T or 40 GBASE-T speeds will find the length and shielding appropriate. Installers who require longer runs, different colours or non-shielded cable should look at other options. The fixed one-foot length limits use to adjacent devices.

2000 MHz bandwidth and 40 Gbps rating on Cat8

This frequency and speed rating determine whether the cable matches the performance tier of the connected equipment. If the network gear operates at lower categories the cable will still function, but the extra headroom will not be used.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box with this 1 ft Cat8 cable and what must I buy separately?

The package contains the shielded RJ45 patch cable with gold-plated connectors. No additional components are included; buy wall plates, keystones or a crimping tool separately if you need to terminate runs yourself.

When should I choose this 1 ft yellow 26 AWG version over other lengths or colours?

Pick the 1 ft yellow 26 AWG model for short, colour-coded links inside a rack or between a router and a nearby switch; longer runs or different colour-coding schemes need other SKUs.

What does the 2000 MHz rating mean for my 40 Gbps connection?

The 2 GHz bandwidth supports the signalling required for 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T, so the cable can carry 40 Gbps over its full 1 ft length when both ends use compatible 40GBASE-T ports.
