Fuji Labs CAT8-BL5STP-BL 5 ft blue network ethernet cable

SKU CH-64J4-GVBD5 MPN CAT8-BL5STP-BL

A 5 ft shielded Cat.8 patch cable rated for 40 Gbps at 2 GHz with gold-plated RJ45 connectors

  • Length5 ft.
  • ColorBlue
  • Supports 40 Gbps transfer speeds for high-demand networks
  • 2 GHz bandwidth handles intensive data workloads
  • Double foil and braid shielding reduces signal interference
  • 50-micron gold-plated contacts resist corrosion for reliable connections
  • Backwards compatible with Cat.5e, Cat.6, Cat.6a and Cat.7 equipment

Five-foot Cat.8 S/FTP patch cable

This five-foot blue cable is a Cat.8 S/FTP patch lead built with 4-pair 24AWG stranded pure copper conductors, each pair foil-shielded and wrapped in an overall braid shield. It terminates in RJ45 plugs with 50-micron gold-plated contacts and a PVC jacket wired to the T568B standard. The construction meets TIA/EIA requirements verified by UL and ETL and is RoHS compliant.

Installers needing certified 2 GHz bandwidth

The cable suits installers who need a certified 2 000 MHz (2 GHz) channel for 40 Gbps links in server rooms, data centres or high-density workstation builds. It is not for buyers who need longer runs beyond the five-foot length, or for projects that specify a different jacket material or shielding scheme.

2 000 MHz (2 GHz) maximum bandwidth

The single specification that decides fit is the 2 000 MHz (2 GHz) maximum bandwidth rating. If your equipment requires that bandwidth class the cable will support it; if the design calls for a lower category the cable remains backward compatible with Cat.5e, Cat.6, Cat.6A and Cat.7 links.

Questions about this item

Will this Cat.8 cable work with my existing Cat.6a patch panel and router ports?

Yes. The cable is backwards compatible with Cat.5E, Cat.6, Cat6A and Cat.7 equipment, so it will connect to your current panel and router using the standard RJ45 interface.

How can I verify the link is running at the cable's rated 2,000 MHz bandwidth after installation?

Check the negotiated link speed in your router or switch management interface; a 40 Gbps connection indicates the full 2 GHz bandwidth is active. Also inspect that the 50 micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts are fully seated.

Does the 5 ft blue cable come with any extra connectors or cable ties, or is it just the single patch cord?

The box contains the single 5 ft S/FTP patch cord with RJ45 plugs on both ends. No additional connectors, ties or tools are included.
