Compact 1 ft Cat8 cable

This Nippon Labs 60CAT8-1-30OR cable is a Category 8 patch cord built for 40 Gbps transfer speeds and 2 GHz bandwidth. It uses 30 AWG stranded pure copper conductors with U/FTP foil shielding on each pair. The orange CM PVC jacket measures one foot end to end. It suits builders who need a short, high-frequency link between two RJ45 ports.

U/FTP shielding and slim profile

Each twisted pair is wrapped in aluminium foil, and the overall jacket carries no external braid, so the cable stays thin enough for tight routing inside dense racks or behind panels. Gold-plated 50 µm contacts on the RJ45 plugs resist oxidation, while a soft-flex push tab and moulded strain relief make repeated insertion easier. The T568B wiring ensures compatibility with existing Cat5e, Cat6 and Cat6a infrastructure.

Sustained 2 GHz operation

The 2000 MHz rating is specified for continuous bandwidth rather than brief bursts, so the foil shielding and oxygen-free copper core maintain signal integrity over extended transfers. Backwards compatibility means the cord negotiates down to lower categories without re-cabling. Buyers who need longer runs or higher power-over-Ethernet budgets should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

What is the maximum data rate this Cat8 cable can sustain over its 1 ft length?

The cable is rated for up to 40 Gbps data transfer at 2 GHz bandwidth, using 30 AWG stranded pure copper conductors with U/FTP foil shielding.

How much heat or noise does the cable produce during continuous 40 Gbps operation?

As a passive copper cable it generates no noise and negligible heat; the CM PVC jacket and foil shielding handle signal integrity without active cooling.

Which devices must already have RJ45 ports wired to the T568B standard for this patch cord to work?

Any switch, router, server or NIC with standard RJ45 ports works; the cable is fully backward compatible with Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6A and Cat7 equipment.
