16.5ft Cat 8 SFTP Patch Cable

This 16.5ft Cat 8 Ethernet cable delivers 40Gbps throughput at 2000MHz bandwidth for demanding network links. Shielded foiled twisted-pair construction with 26AWG 100% copper conductors reduces crosstalk and signal loss. Gold-plated RJ45 connectors with a 15µm coating resist corrosion and maintain low contact resistance. The 6.5mm PVC jacket protects the four twisted pairs in home, office or data-centre runs.

Upgrade from Cat 5e, Cat 6 or Cat 6a

Replacing older category cables with this Cat 8 link removes the 1Gbps or 10Gbps bottleneck when your switch, router or NIC supports 25Gbps or 40Gbps operation. The jump is worth it when you move large files between NAS and workstation, stream uncompressed 4K or 8K video, or run latency-sensitive VR and gaming traffic over a wired backbone. Backward compatibility with Cat 5e through Cat 7 keeps existing ports usable during a phased upgrade.

Verify port speed and cable routing

Confirm that both endpoints negotiate 25GBASE-T or 40GBASE-T; a 1Gbps port will not benefit from the higher category. Ensure the 6.5mm diameter fits your cable trays, wall plates and patch-panel density. The cable is rated for 25°C operating temperature, so avoid routing through hot plenums or near heating equipment. No tool-less keystone termination is provided — the factory-moulded RJ45 plugs are ready for direct connection.

Questions about this item

What is the cable diameter and will a 6.5mm SFTP cable fit through standard trunking?

The cable measures 6.5mm in diameter with a high-quality PVC outer sheath, so it fits typical 10mm or larger trunking and conduit used for Cat6a or Cat7 installations.

How do I install the shielded RJ45 connectors correctly and what is the common mistake?

Push each gold-plated shielded RJ45 plug straight in until the latch clicks; the frequent error is not seating the shielded shell fully, which breaks the 2000MHz grounding path and drops speeds below 40Gbps.

Will the 26AWG copper conductors or gold plating need replacement over time?

The 100% copper 26AWG twisted pairs and 15µ gold-plated contacts are rated for the operating temperature of 25°C and do not require scheduled replacement under normal indoor use.
