25 ft Cat8 Ethernet cable
This 25 ft Category 8 patch cable uses 26 AWG oxygen-free copper with four shielded twisted pairs and 24K gold-plated RJ45 connectors. It is built for 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T links in servers, cloud storage, gaming consoles and high-bandwidth streaming setups.
Before ordering check your ports
Verify that both endpoints have RJ45 ports rated for at least the speed you intend to run; the cable is backward compatible with CAT7, CAT6, CAT5 and CAT5e equipment. Ensure the 25 ft length fits the run between devices without excessive slack or tension.
Thermals noise and power
As a passive copper cable it generates no heat, emits no noise and draws no power of its own. The triple-layer S/FTP shielding with overall foil and braid suppresses EMI, RFI and alien crosstalk up to 2000 MHz, preserving signal integrity in electrically noisy environments.

Questions about this item
What is included with the 25 ft Cat8 cable and what extra items are needed?
The cable comes with RJ45 connectors on both ends, 24K gold-plated contacts and triple-layer S/FTP shielding. No additional parts are required for a standard wired connection.
Which capacity or version of this Cat8 cable should I choose?
This model is a single 25 ft length rated for 40 Gbps at 2000 MHz. Choose it when you need that exact reach and the highest available Cat8 performance.
What does the 40 Gbps rating mean when the cable is installed in a real network?
It supports 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T speeds over the full 25 ft, provided the connected ports and switch also operate at those standards.
