Cat8 shielded patch cable for high-speed LANs

The Nippon Labs 60CAT8-3-24PU is a 3 ft Category 8 Ethernet cable built with 24 AWG stranded copper conductors and full S/FTP shielding. Gold-plated RJ45 connectors on both ends provide reliable contact for routers, switches, servers, consoles and PoE devices. The purple PVC jacket is rated for indoor and outdoor use.

2000 MHz bandwidth supports 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T

Rated at 2000 MHz, the cable delivers up to 40 Gbps over its full length, meeting the needs of data-centre switch-to-server links and high-throughput home networks. It remains fully backward compatible with Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a and Cat7 equipment, so existing ports work without replacement. The 3 ft length suits rack patching or desktop runs; longer distances need a longer cable.

Shielded construction controls interference and heat

Individual foil shielding around each pair and an overall steel braid suppress crosstalk and external noise, keeping signal integrity high at 40 Gbps. The moulded strain-relief boots protect the connectors from bending stress during frequent moves. Passive copper design draws no power and adds no audible noise to the installation.

Questions about this item

Will this Cat8 cable work with my existing Cat6a router and Cat5e switches?

Yes, it is fully backward compatible with Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a and Cat7 RJ45 equipment, so it will connect to your current router and switches without issues.

How can I confirm the cable is delivering the rated 2000 MHz performance after installation?

Use a cable certifier or network analyser that tests up to 2 GHz; a passing Cat8 certification report verifies the 2000 MHz bandwidth and 40 Gbps capability.

Does the package include only the 3 ft purple cable or are any mounting clips or tools supplied?

The box contains the single 3 ft Cat8 S/FTP patch cable with gold-plated RJ45 connectors; no clips, ties or installation tools are included.
