7 ft Cat8 shielded patch cable

This 7-foot Cat8 Ethernet cable uses 24 AWG shielded S/FTP construction with gold-plated RJ45 connectors on both ends. It is rated for 2000 MHz bandwidth and supports data rates up to 40 Gbps, making it suitable for 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T links in data-centre or high-performance LAN environments. The yellow PVC jacket is CM rated for indoor and outdoor use.

Installers needing 25G or 40G over copper

The cable targets network engineers and enthusiasts deploying 25GBASE-T or 40GBASE-T connections between switches, servers, NAS devices, consoles or PoE equipment where full backward compatibility with Cat5e through Cat7 hardware is required. It is not for buyers who need longer runs beyond the Cat8 channel limit or who require fibre optic media for extended distances.

2000 MHz / 40 Gbps Cat8 rating

The decisive specification is the Cat8 classification delivering 2000 MHz bandwidth and 40 Gbps throughput over the 7 ft length, which determines whether the cable meets the performance ceiling of the intended 25G or 40G network segment.

Questions about this item

Is the 7 ft yellow Cat8 cable the only length and colour offered?

The listing shows a single 7 ft yellow version; other lengths or colours are not described in the product data.

Will I actually see 40 Gbps throughput on my home router?

The cable supports up to 40 Gbps and 2000 MHz bandwidth, but real-world speed is limited by the slowest device in the link such as a 10 Gbps or 25 Gbps port.

Does the RJ45 connector work with standard Gigabit and 10 Gigabit ports?

Yes, the shielded RJ45 plugs are fully backward compatible with Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a and Cat7 equipment.
