1 ft Cat8 shielded patch cable
This 1 ft Cat8 Ethernet cable uses 24 AWG stranded copper conductors with individual foil and overall braid shielding. It terminates in gold-plated RJ45 connectors on both ends and carries a CM-rated PVC jacket suitable for indoor or outdoor runs. The grey cable supports 2 GHz bandwidth and up to 40 Gbps transfer rates for 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T links.
Shielding and connector upgrades
The S/FTP construction wraps each pair in foil and adds an overall steel braid to suppress alien crosstalk at 2000 MHz. Molded strain relief and a soft-flex push tab make the RJ45 plugs snagless and easier to release in dense patch panels. The 50 µm gold plating on the contacts resists oxidation for reliable PoE and data continuity over repeated mating cycles.
Suited for short high-speed links; not for long runs
This cable fits switch-to-server, console, NAS or IP camera connections where a 1 ft reach is sufficient and 25 Gbps or 40 Gbps throughput is required. Installers needing longer horizontal runs, in-wall riser or plenum ratings, or fibre-grade distances should select a different cable type.

Questions about this item
Will the gold-plated RJ45 contacts on this 1 ft Cat8 cable need periodic cleaning or replacement?
The 50 µm gold-plated contacts resist oxidation and the molded strain relief protects the latch, so no routine cleaning or contact replacement is expected under normal indoor or outdoor use.
What is the first performance limit reached when this 24 AWG Cat8 cable runs 40 Gbps continuously?
The 2000 MHz bandwidth rating and S/FTP shielding define the ceiling; the 1 ft length keeps insertion loss far below the Cat8 channel limit, so the link stays at 40 Gbps without hitting a distance bottleneck.
How much heat or noise does the shielded 24 AWG construction generate during all-day PoE or 40 Gbps traffic?
The stranded bare-copper conductors and overall steel braid add no active components, so the cable produces no audible noise and negligible heat even with continuous PoE or 40 Gbps loads.
