Nippon Labs Cat8 2 ft patch cable

This Nippon Labs Cat8 Ethernet cable measures 2 ft and uses 26 AWG shielded conductors to deliver up to 40 Gbps at 2000 MHz. Gold-plated RJ45 connectors on both ends provide corrosion-resistant contact for reliable data transfer. The yellow PVC jacket is rated for indoor and outdoor use.

Suited for high-density switch-to-server links

The cable supports emerging 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T applications in small or mid-level enterprise LANs. It remains fully backward compatible with Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a and Cat7 equipment. Buyers who need longer runs for backbone cabling should look at bulk cable instead.

26 AWG shielded construction decides fit

The 26 AWG gauge and S/FTP shielding with double aluminum foil and woven mesh meet the Cat8 electrical requirements for 2000 MHz operation. Oxygen-free copper cores reduce resistance and signal loss at these frequencies. Installers requiring a thicker gauge for PoE budgets must choose a different cable.

Questions about this item

Will the 2000 MHz bandwidth hold up on a 2 ft run when the link runs at 40 Gbps all day?

The cable is rated for 2 GHz bandwidth and 40 Gbps transfer speeds, so the short 2 ft length keeps insertion loss well within Cat8 limits for sustained full-rate traffic.

Does the double foil and braid shielding plus PVC jacket keep the cable cool and quiet during continuous 40 Gbps operation?

Passive copper cables generate no audible noise and negligible heat; the S/FTP shielding and PVC jacket simply maintain signal integrity without adding thermal load.

Do I need equipment with 25GBASE-T or 40GBASE-T RJ45 ports to use this cable?

The cable works with any RJ45 port — Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a, Cat7 or Cat8 — and will negotiate the highest speed both ends support.
