Connect reliably to a 25G/40G network using this Shielded LSZH Cat8 Cable
Connect to a 25/40Gbps switch or networking devi... morece using this Snagless S/FTP Category 8 Ethernet Cable. The 2000MHz maximum frequency enables up to four times higher throughput than Cat6a.
Pure Bare Copper Wire
Our Snagless Cat8 Cables are designed for long-lasting performance. The 4-Pair Shielded and Foiled Twisted Pair (S/FTP) construction utilizes 26AWG pure bare copper wire for improved conductivity and low resistance ensuring reliable transmission and minimal signal loss.
Pure bare copper wiring offers consistent performance characteristics across different environments. Each pair is shielded in aluminum-mylar foil and tinned copper braid for enhanced EMI protection.
Durable Construction
The Cat8 Ethernet Cable features snagless 50-micro gold-plated connectors that enable a precise fit to minimize wear and are rated beyond 750 connector mating cycles. The flexible Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) flame-retardant jacket emits low smoke and toxic fumes when exposed to extreme heat or in the event of a fire. This enables safer installations in poorly-ventilated areas including some industrial settings self-contained environments such as trains and aircraft as well as residential settings where compliance with building codes must be considered.
The cable is rated to withstand -/+90-degree bends and routes well in confined spaces.
Versatile Dependability
The Shielded Cat8 Patch Cord is ideal for high-density 25/40GBASE-T networks and supports up to 100W output to Power over Ethernet (PoE++) devices. Establish connectivity to 25G/40G switches Network Attached Storage (NAS) Storage Area Networks (SANs) and SFP modules. It facilitates reliable throughput and power to low-latency and critical PoE devices including PoE switches access points and IP cameras.
Backward compatibility with Cat 6/6a and Cat 5/5e standards ensure seamless integration into existing network environments. Our Snagless Cat8 cables are Fluke channel tested for guaranteed Cat8 performance.
The StarTech.com Advantage
The 2m Blue CAT8 Ethernet Cable from StarTech.com is designed to deliver performance for high-bandwidth applications, support... moreing speeds of up to 40 Gbps. With its robust aluminum mylar foil shielding, this cable mitigates EMI, promoting a stable connection essential for data transmission. The pure bare copper conductors ensure optimal signal quality while the flame-retardant and low smoke zero halogen materials enhance safety, making this cable suitable for various environments. Additionally, the strain relief design extends the lifespan of the connectors, allowing for up to 750 mating cycles, ensuring durability throughout extensive use. This patch cable complies with IEEE standards, including IEEE 802.3bt and IEEE 802.3ba, ensuring compatibility with a range of devices. The RJ-45 male connectors on both ends support 100W PoE++ for powering devices over the network. The snagless design further protects the connectors from damage during installation, while the T568B wiring scheme promotes seamless integration into existing network setups. Ideal for home and professional use, this cable provides a reliable network solution.
