Nippon Labs Cat8 2 ft Patch Cable

This Nippon Labs Cat8 Ethernet cable measures 2 ft and uses 24 AWG stranded bare copper conductors with S/FTP shielding. It is built for indoor or outdoor runs that demand up to 40 Gbps throughput and 2000 MHz bandwidth. The white PVC jacket is CM rated and the RJ45 plugs carry 50 µm gold-plated contacts with snagless strain relief.

Suits short high-speed links, not long runs

It suits installers who need a short, shielded patch lead for 25GBASE-T or 40GBASE-T gear such as servers, switches, routers, NAS boxes or game consoles. It is not for buyers who need longer cable runs, who prefer thinner unshielded cables for dense trays, or who only require 10 Gbps or lower performance.

2000 MHz bandwidth enables 40 Gbps

The cable’s 2000 MHz (2 GHz) frequency rating is the single specification that decides whether this part fits the link. That bandwidth supports 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T signalling over the 2 ft distance, while remaining fully backward compatible with Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a and Cat7 equipment.

Questions about this item

Is the 2 ft length right for my desk-to-router run?

At 2 ft this Cat8 patch cable suits short connections such as a PC or console next to a switch or router; measure your exact path before ordering.

What does the 2000 MHz rating deliver in my network?

The 2000 MHz bandwidth supports 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T links, so the cable can carry up to 40 Gbps when both ends and the switch port negotiate that speed.

How does the S/FTP shielding and RJ45 connector affect compatibility?

The double-shielded S/FTP construction and gold-plated RJ45 plugs keep the cable fully backward compatible with Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a and Cat7 gear while suppressing crosstalk at 2 GHz.
