Nippon Labs Cat8 7 ft orange cable

This 7 ft orange Cat8 patch cable uses 24 AWG stranded copper conductors with S/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ45 connectors on both ends. It is rated for 2000 MHz operation and supports 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T applications. The CM-rated PVC jacket is designed for indoor and outdoor use.

Suits 25G and 40G links; not for lower budgets

Buyers deploying 25GBASE-T or 40GBASE-T switch-to-server links, data-centre patching or high-speed home runs will use the 2 GHz bandwidth and full shielding. Installations that only need Cat5e, Cat6 or Cat6a performance can choose a less expensive category cable instead.

2000 MHz rating decides suitability

The 2000 MHz frequency rating is the single specification that determines whether this cable meets the channel requirements for 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T. If the network design calls for a lower frequency class, a Cat6a or Cat7 cable will satisfy the link without the extra cost.
