Ten black Cat 8 patch cables, 3 ft each, RJ45 ends, braided shield

Nippon Labs

Nippon Labs 60CAT8-3-24BK-10P network ethernet cable 3 ft black 24AWG S/FTP 10 pack

SKU CH-85MH-FAN9W MPN 60CAT8-3-24BK-10P

Ten shielded Cat 8 patch cords, each three feet long with gold-plated RJ45 plugs, support 40 Gbps at 2 GHz bandwidth

  • TypeNetwork Ethernet Cables
  • Cat8
  • Connector ARJ45
  • Connector BRJ45
  • Length3 ft.
  • ColorBlack
  • Supports up to 40 Gbps data rates with 2 GHz bandwidth
  • Backwards compatible with Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a and Cat7 networks
  • Each pair foil shielded plus overall braid shield for noise immunity
  • 50 µm gold-plated RJ45 contacts resist corrosion and ensure reliable connection
  • Ten 3 ft cables with snagless boots and molded strain relief

Ideal for short 25G and 40G links

These 3 ft Cat8 patch cords deliver 2 GHz bandwidth and up to 40 Gbps data rates over S/FTP shielded 24 AWG copper. The ten-pack suits rack-to-rack or switch-to-server runs where dense, high-frequency cabling is needed. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts and snagless boots simplify repeated insertion.

Suits 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T deployments

Installations that require longer horizontal runs or fibre media should look elsewhere. Builders needing unshielded or lower-category cables for general office drops will not use the full specification. The short length limits use to adjacent equipment.

2 GHz operating frequency

This figure determines support for emerging 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T standards. The 2000 MHz rating, combined with pair-foil and overall braid shielding, defines whether the cable meets the required channel performance.

Questions about this item

Does the cable generate any heat or consume power when running continuously at 40Gbps?

No, it is a passive copper cable with no active electronics, so it produces no heat and draws no power regardless of the 40Gbps data rate or 2000MHz frequency.

What devices must already have RJ45 ports to use these Cat8 cables?

Any switch, router, server, NAS, or PC with standard RJ45 jacks will work; the cables are fully backward compatible with Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6A and Cat7 equipment.

Will the S/FTP shielding and 24AWG conductors cause fit issues in older Cat5e or Cat6 patch panels?

The RJ45 plugs follow the standard footprint with snagless boots and 50µm gold contacts, so they seat correctly in legacy panels while the foil and braid shielding simply adds noise immunity.
