Cat 8 Ethernet Cable 16 ft

This Category 8 patch cable runs 16 ft and terminates in shielded RJ45 connectors at both ends. It is built with 26 AWG solid copper conductors and a UV-resistant PVC jacket rated for indoor and outdoor use. The construction supports 40 Gbps throughput at 2000 MHz bandwidth.

Suits 25G and 40G links; not for longer runs

The cable suits installers who need certified 25GBASE-T or 40GBASE-T performance over short distances. It also fits home users who want a durable, weatherproof run for routers, switches, IP cameras or gaming consoles. Buyers who need runs beyond 16 ft should select a longer length.

40 Gbps at 2000 MHz decides fit

The headline specification is the 40 Gbps data rate delivered across a 2000 MHz channel. That bandwidth ceiling determines whether the cable matches the network equipment in use. If the connected hardware negotiates lower speeds, the cable will still operate but the extra headroom will not be used.

Questions about this item

What devices do I already need to have RJ45 ports for this Cat 8 cable to plug into?

You need equipment with RJ45 ports such as a router, switch, modem, IP camera, adapter or Nintendo Switch; both ends of this cable use shielded RJ45 connectors.

Will this 16 ft Cat 8 cable work with my older Cat 5e and Cat 6 patch panels and jacks?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible with Cat 5, Cat 5e, Cat 6, Cat 6a and Cat 7 RJ45 equipment, so it fits existing panels and jacks.

How can I verify the 2000 MHz bandwidth and 40 Gbps speed are actually working after I install the cable?

Use a Fluke Professional cable analyser to test the link to the TIA 10G patch-cord or channel standard; passing that test confirms the rated performance.
