Nippon Labs 60CAT8-0.5-24GN Cat8 network ethernet cable 0.5 ft green 24AWG 2000 MHz 40Gbps

SKU CH-C8CG-G8CCW MPN 60CAT8-0.5-24GN

A 0.5 ft Cat8 patch cable rated for 40 Gbps at 2000 MHz with S/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ45 connectors

  • TypeNetwork Ethernet Cables
  • Cat8
  • Connector ARJ45
  • Connector BRJ45
  • Length0.5 ft.
  • ColorGreen
  • Supports 40 Gbps transfer speeds at 2 GHz bandwidth
  • Fully backward compatible with Cat5 through Cat7 equipment
  • UL rated for 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T applications
  • Pure copper core with dual foil and braid shielding
  • 50 µm gold-plated RJ45 connectors with snagless strain relief

Ideal for ultra-short links

This half-metre Cat8 patch cord is built for installers and network technicians who need a 40 Gbps-rated link between adjacent rack ports, a switch and a server, or a console and a router. Its green jacket makes the run easy to trace in dense panels. The cable is not suited for runs longer than the supplied length or for buyers who need a spool to cut custom lengths.

Shielded S/FTP construction

Each of the four pairs is wrapped in aluminium foil and the whole bundle sits under a steel braid, giving S/FTP shielding that meets the 2 GHz (2000 MHz) Category 8 requirement. Gold-plated RJ45 plugs with 50 µm contacts, a snagless boot and moulded strain relief survive repeated insertion in tight patch panels. The CM-rated PVC jacket is rated for indoor and outdoor use, so the same cord can cross a wall plate into a weather-exposed camera or access point.

Verify port spacing and device ports

Confirm that both ends accept standard RJ45 connectors and that the 0.5 ft reach spans the actual distance without tension. Ensure the linked hardware supports 25GBASE-T or 40GBASE-T signalling to use the full bandwidth; the cord is backward compatible with Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a and Cat7 equipment but will operate at the lower category’s speed. No PoE budget or specific switch model is implied by the cable itself.

Questions about this item

What bandwidth does the Cat8 2000 MHz rating actually deliver?

The cable operates at 2 GHz (2000 MHz) and supports 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T applications up to 40 Gbps.

What physical clearance does the 0.5 ft green cable with metal-shielded RJ45 plugs need?

At 0.5 ft long with molded strain relief and snagless boots, it fits tight switch-to-server runs and standard keystone panels.

How is the S/FTP shield grounded when I plug the gold-plated RJ45 ends into my router?

The metal-shielded connectors bond the overall steel braid and foil shields to the equipment chassis automatically on insertion.
