Cat8 10 ft patch cable for high-bandwidth links
This shielded Cat8 patch cable uses 26 AWG stranded copper conductors and RJ45 connectors to deliver up to 40 Gbps data rates at 2 GHz bandwidth. It is built for 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T networks and remains fully backward compatible with earlier category cabling.
40 Gbps headroom and 2 GHz bandwidth ceiling
The cable handles 25 Gbps and 40 Gbps links over its 10 ft length, making it suitable for short-run server uplinks, switch stacking and high-speed workstation connections. Beyond the rated frequency the signal margin drops, so runs longer than the specified length or unshielded environments will reduce achievable throughput.
Upgrade from Cat6a or Cat7 when 25G
Replacing Cat6a or Cat7 patch cords with this Cat8 cable is worthwhile only when both ends negotiate 25 Gbps or 40 Gbps; on 1 Gbps or 10 Gbps gear the extra bandwidth goes unused. Buyers who need longer runs, outdoor burial rating or non-RJ45 terminations should look at other cable types.

Questions about this item
Will this Cat8 cable work with my existing Cat6a router and switch ports?
Yes, the cable is fully backward compatible with Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a and Cat7 equipment, so it will operate at the highest speed both ends support.
How can I verify the 2000 MHz bandwidth is active after I plug it in?
Check the link speed reported by your router, switch or PC network adapter; a negotiated 25 Gbps or 40 Gbps connection confirms the 2 GHz channel is in use.
Does the 10 ft cable include any mounting clips or cable ties for in-wall routing?
The package contains only the shielded Cat8 patch cable with gold-plated RJ45 connectors; mounting hardware must be purchased separately.
