1 ft Cat8 patch cable for 40 Gbps links
This 1 ft Cat8 patch cord uses 26 AWG stranded pure copper conductors with S/FTP shielding to deliver up to 40 Gbps at 2 GHz bandwidth. It targets data-centre switch-to-server runs and high-performance desktop links where a short, shielded jumper is required. The grey jacket is rated for indoor and outdoor use.
Sustained throughput at 2 GHz bandwidth
The cable maintains its 2000 MHz rating across the full 1 ft length, supporting continuous 25 Gbps and 40 Gbps traffic without the signal degradation seen on lower-category cables at the same frequency. Double aluminium-foil pair shielding plus an overall braid suppress alien crosstalk during prolonged heavy loads. Backward compatibility ensures it negotiates down to existing Cat5e through Cat7 equipment.
Low-profile build with gold-plated RJ45 ends
Molded strain relief and a snagless push tab protect the 50 µm gold-plated contacts during repeated insertion cycles. The slim 26 AWG construction stays flexible for tight rack routing while the PVC outer jacket resists abrasion in both indoor and outdoor environments. Shielded metal connector housings maintain grounding continuity end to end.

Questions about this item
Does the 2 GHz bandwidth or 40 Gbps data rate make this 1 ft cable run hot or draw extra power?
The cable is completely passive; it carries signals without active electronics so it produces no heat and consumes no power regardless of the 2 GHz bandwidth or 40 Gbps rating.
What devices must I already have to use the RJ45 connectors on this Cat8 patch cord?
Any equipment with standard RJ45 ports — routers, switches, servers, PCs, consoles, printers, patch panels or modems — will accept the gold-plated connectors directly.
Will this Cat8 cable work reliably with my existing Cat6a and Cat7 patch panels and switches?
Yes, the cable is fully backward compatible with Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a and Cat7 cabling and equipment, so it plugs into older panels and switches without any configuration changes.
