1 ft Cat8 patch cable for 40 Gbps links

This 1 ft Cat8 patch cable is built for 40 Gbps Ethernet over copper using RJ45 connectors. The 26 AWG stranded pure copper conductors and S/FTP shielding support 2 GHz bandwidth for emerging 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T networks. It suits installers who need a short, high-frequency link between a switch, router, server or workstation in a rack or wall plate. The red PVC jacket provides quick visual identification in dense cable runs.

Sustained 2 GHz operation with full shielding

Each of the four twisted pairs is wrapped in aluminum foil and the overall bundle is covered by a braided shield, suppressing alien crosstalk and external noise during continuous high-frequency transmission. Gold-plated contacts rated at 50 µm resist oxidation that would otherwise degrade signal integrity over time. Molded strain relief and a snagless boot protect the connector geometry when the cable is routed through tight pathways or repositioned repeatedly. The construction meets TIA/EIA requirements verified by UL and ETL and is RoHS compliant.

1 ft length fixes the reach before purchase

At exactly 1 ft the cable only bridges equipment that sits side by side or shares a single rack unit. Buyers who need longer runs between rooms, floors or cabinets cannot use this length and must select a different cable. The fixed distance is the single specification that decides whether the part fits the physical topology of the installation.

Questions about this item

Does the 2000 MHz bandwidth make the cable run hot during all-day use?

No, the cable is passive copper with no active components, so it generates no heat and consumes no power regardless of the 2 GHz rating.

What devices must I already have to use this 1 ft Cat8 patch cord?

Two pieces of equipment with standard RJ45 ports — such as a router, switch, PC, modem or gaming console — are all that is required.

Will this 26 AWG S/FTP cable work with my older Cat6 wall jacks and switch?

Yes, it is fully backward compatible with Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a and Cat7 infrastructure, so existing jacks and switches work without changes.
