Cat8 Ethernet Cable for 25GBASE-T

This 15 ft Cat8 patch cable is built for 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T applications. It operates at 2000 MHz with S/FTP shielding and 24 AWG stranded copper conductors. The RJ45 connectors feature 50 µm gold plating and a snagless strain-relief boot. It suits data-centre switch-to-server links and high-performance LAN segments.

Suited for 40 Gbps Links; Not for Runs Beyond 15 ft

The cable supports 40 Gbps throughput over its full 15 ft length, making it ideal for short server-to-switch connections, NAS uplinks and console gaming. Buyers who need longer permanent installation runs should look at solid-conductor bulk cable rated for extended channel lengths. It is not a fibre alternative for building-backbone distances.

40 Gbps Headroom at 2 GHz Bandwidth

At 2 GHz bandwidth the cable comfortably handles 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T traffic with full backward compatibility to Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a and Cat7 equipment. The 24 AWG stranded construction provides flexibility for patch-panel density while the double shield suppresses alien crosstalk. Performance drops if the channel exceeds the 15 ft limit or if connectors are mated to unshielded keystones.

Questions about this item

What devices need RJ45 ports to use this 15 ft Cat8 cable?

Any device with an RJ45 jack — routers, switches, modems, PCs, consoles, NAS units, IP cameras or PoE gear — will connect directly.

Will this Cat8 cable work with my existing Cat6a patch panel and Cat5e wall jacks?

Yes, the cable is fully backward compatible with Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a and Cat7 RJ45 cabling and equipment.

How can I verify the link is running at the cable's rated 2000 MHz bandwidth after installation?

Check the port status on your switch or router; it should report a 25GBASE-T or 40GBASE-T link speed when both ends support those standards.
