Cat 8 RJ45 patch cord, 3 ft

This 3 ft Cat 8 cable uses RJ45 connectors on both ends and is built to 24 AWG with full S/FTP shielding. It is intended for installers and IT teams who need a short, high-frequency link for 25GBASE-T or 40GBASE-T equipment in racks or at the desk.

Suited for 2 GHz / 2000 MHz channels.

The 2 GHz rating supports emerging 25 Gbps and 40 Gbps server-to-switch runs and remains backward compatible with earlier RJ45 categories. Buyers who only need 1 Gbps or 10 Gbps over longer distances, or who prefer unshielded cables for easier routing, should consider lower-category options.

24 AWG shielded construction decides fit

The 24 AWG conductors with foil and braid shielding deliver the 2 GHz bandwidth required for 40 Gbps operation, but the thicker jacket reduces flexibility in tight cable trays. Verify that your patch panels and switch ports accept the larger diameter before ordering.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 3 ft length or a longer run for my desk-to-switch link?

The 3 ft patch cord suits short rack or desk connections; longer runs are not covered by this model.

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

The 2 GHz bandwidth supports 40 Gbps signalling over the full 3 ft length when both ends use compatible 25 GBASE-T or 40 GBASE-T ports.

Does the S/FTP shielding and RJ45 connector limit the cable to a specific Ethernet standard?

The shielded 24 AWG construction with RJ45 plugs is fully backward compatible with Cat 5 through Cat 7 equipment while meeting Cat 8 specifications.
