Cat8 cable for 40Gbps networks

This 1.524 m Cat8 Ethernet cable supports up to 40Gbps transfer speeds and 2GHz bandwidth over copper conductors with RJ45 connectors. It is built for IT managers and data centre operators who need a future proof link for active 10G and 40G networks.

S/FTP shielding with pure copper conductors

The cable uses 24AWG 100 percent bare copper wire instead of copper clad aluminium, meeting UL Code 444 and TIA 568 C.2 fire and safety standards. S/FTP shielding reduces alien crosstalk, so dense patch panels and cabinet runs stay reliable day to day.

Passive copper design needs no extra power

As a passive copper assembly it draws no power and adds no active noise, keeping rack thermals unchanged. The 5 foot length keeps insertion loss low for 40Gbps operation without requiring signal boosters or external cooling.

Questions about this item

What bandwidth and data rate does the Cat8 2 GHz rating actually support?

The cable is rated for up to 2 GHz bandwidth and up to 40 Gbps transfer speeds over its 1.524 m length using copper conductors and RJ45 connectors.

What physical clearance and connector size does the 24 AWG S/FTP cable with RJ45 plugs need?

The 24 AWG shielded twisted‑pair construction terminates in standard RJ45 plugs that fit any 8P8C port; the cable’s outer diameter is typical for Cat8 patch leads, so it routes through standard cable managers and keystone openings.

How do you install this Cat8 patch cable and what common mistake should be avoided?

Insert each RJ45 plug fully until the latch clicks into the port; the frequent error is not seating the latch completely, which leaves the shield ungrounded and can cause intermittent 10 G or 40 G links.
