High-Speed Cat 8 Slim Patch Cable

This 3 ft Cat 8 U/FTP Ethernet cable supports up to 40 Gbps data rates and 2000 MHz bandwidth. It uses 30 AWG stranded pure copper conductors with individual pair foil shielding. Gold-plated RJ45 connectors and a CM-rated PVC jacket complete the assembly.

Suited For High-Density 25G And 40G Links

The slim profile fits tight switch ports and crowded racks where standard cables cannot bend easily. It is backwards compatible with Cat 5e, Cat 6, Cat 6A and Cat 7 equipment. Installers needing thicker conductors for long horizontal runs or PoE budgets above 30 W should choose a heavier gauge cable.

30 AWG Conductor Gauge

The 30 AWG stranded copper core determines both the cable's flexibility and its current-carrying capacity. Verify that this gauge meets the power and distance requirements of the intended 25GBASE-T or 40GBASE-T deployment before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will the 30 AWG slim jacket and RJ45 plugs fit through a standard keystone jack or patch panel port?

Yes, the 30 AWG stranded copper conductors and moulded RJ45 plugs with snagless boots are sized for standard keystone and patch-panel ports.

How do I seat the soft-flex push tab correctly so the lock clicks without snapping the slim cable?

Hold the plug body, not the cable, and press the tab until you hear a click; the moulded strain relief prevents kinking at the bend point.

When should I replace this Cat 8 patch cord to keep 40 Gbps performance at 2 000 MHz?

Replace it if the gold-plated contacts show wear, the foil shielding is crushed, or the jacket cracks — any of which increases insertion loss above the Cat 8 limit.
