Cat8 cable for 40 Gbps networks

This 10 ft purple Cat8 patch cable uses 26 AWG stranded pure copper conductors with individual foil shielding plus an overall braid shield. RJ45 plugs feature 50 micron gold-plated contacts and a snagless strain-relief boot. The PVC jacket is rated for in-wall and outdoor use and meets TIA/EIA, UL, ETL and RoHS requirements.

Suited for 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T links

Backward compatibility covers Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a and Cat7 equipment, so the cable works with existing routers, switches, PCs and modems. Installers who need longer runs beyond the Cat8 channel limit or who require plenum-rated jackets should look at alternative cable types.

Sustained 2 GHz bandwidth over the full length

The double-shield construction suppresses alien crosstalk and EMI during continuous 40 Gbps transfers, keeping latency stable. Stranded conductors resist fatigue from repeated flexing, while the moulded boot protects the contact geometry during long-term installation stress.

Questions about this item

What type of RJ45 port must my device have to use this cable?

The cable uses standard RJ45 connectors compatible with Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a and Cat7 ports.

Will this 2000 MHz cable work with my existing Cat6a patch panel?

Yes, it is fully backward compatible with Cat6a and earlier categories.

How can I verify the 40Gbps link is active after connecting the purple cable?

Check the link speed in your OS network settings or switch management interface to confirm 40Gbps negotiation.
