10 ft Cat 8 shielded patch cord

This 10 ft Cat 8 cable uses 24 AWG S/FTP construction and gold-plated RJ45 connectors. It operates at 2 GHz (2000 MHz) to support 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T links. The double shield reduces alien crosstalk in dense installations. It is fully backward compatible with earlier RJ45 categories.

Ideal for short server-to-switch runs

The 10 ft length suits rack-adjacent connections in small or medium enterprise networks. It works with servers, switches, routers, consoles and PCs that have standard RJ45 ports. Buyers who need longer horizontal runs or in-wall trunking should look at bulk solid-core alternatives. The fixed length also limits flexibility for custom patch-panel layouts.

Fits standard RJ45 ports without adapters

The cable plugs directly into any Cat 5e through Cat 8 jack, freeing you from media converters or special transceivers. Its 24 AWG stranded conductors tolerate repeated re-patching in dense racks. The PVC jacket and dual shielding handle typical data-centre temperatures and cable-management trays. No external power or configuration is required.

Questions about this item

What RJ45 ports on my devices are required for this Cat 8 cable to work?

The cable uses standard RJ45 connectors on both ends, so any device with an RJ45 Ethernet port — router, switch, PC, console, server, printer, TV box or patch panel — will accept it directly.

Will this Cat 8 cable work with my existing Cat 6a and Cat 7 patch panels and switches?

Yes, the cable is fully backward compatible with Cat 5, Cat 5e, Cat 6, Cat 6a and Cat 7 RJ45 cabling and equipment, so it will link at the highest speed both ends support.

How can I verify the cable is delivering 40 Gbps performance after I install it?

Confirm both connected devices negotiate a 25GBASE-T or 40GBASE-T link, then run a throughput test such as iperf3; sustained results near 40 Gbps indicate the 2000 MHz shielded cable is operating as specified.
