Ready for 40 Gbps networks

This 10-pack of Cat 8 patch cords delivers up to 40 Gbps at 2000 MHz over five-foot gray runs. Each cable uses 24 AWG stranded pure copper conductors with individual foil shielding plus an overall braid shield. The RJ45 plugs carry 50 µm gold-plated contacts and a snagless, strain-relieved boot. Backward compatibility covers Cat 5e, Cat 6, Cat 6A and Cat 7 equipment.

Fits standard RJ45 ports

The RJ45 connectors mate with any Gigabit, 10G or 25G BASE-T port on switches, routers, servers or desktop NICs. Shielded construction suppresses alien crosstalk in dense cable bundles, freeing bandwidth for 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T links. A CM-rated PVC jacket meets in-wall and riser routing requirements without additional conduit. The five-foot length suits rack-to-patch-panel or desk-to-wall-plate runs.

Passive copper, no power draw

As unpowered copper assemblies the cables add no thermal load and generate no audible noise. Shielding and gold-plated contacts maintain signal integrity across the full 2000 MHz spectrum during sustained 40 Gbps transfers. RoHS-compliant materials and UL/ETL-verified TIA/EIA compliance ensure consistent performance in typical office or data-centre ambient conditions.

Questions about this item

Will the 24 AWG conductors limit the 40 Gbps speed on a 5 ft run?

The 24 AWG stranded copper is rated for the full 40 Gbps at this length; Cat 8 specifies 2000 MHz bandwidth over short links.

Does the S/FTP shielding and PVC jacket keep the cable cool and quiet during all-day 40 Gbps traffic?

Passive copper generates no noise and negligible heat; the foil-and-braid shield only protects signal integrity, not temperature.

What port speed must my switch or NIC already have to use these cables at 40 Gbps?

Both ends need 25GBASE-T or 40GBASE-T RJ45 ports; the cables are backward compatible with slower Cat 5e, 6 and 6A gear.
