StarTech.com 10ft White CAT8 Ethernet Cable, Snagless RJ45, 25G/40G 2000MHz, 100W PoE, S/FTP, 26AWG Pure Bare Copper, LSZH Network Patch Cord

Enhance your high-speed network with the StarTech.com 10ft White Cat8 S/FTP Ethernet Patch Cable, designed for demanding data center and enterprise environments. This cable supports data transfer rates up to 40 Gbps and operates at a maximum frequency of 2000 MHz, enabling faster throughput and more reliable connections compared to traditional Cat6a cables. Its shielded twisted pair construction (S/FTP) with aluminum-mylar foil and tinned copper braid ensures excellent EMI protection, making it suitable for environments with high electrical interference. The use of pure bare copper conductors guarantees minimal signal loss and consistent performance across different setups, which is critical for high-bandwidth applications like NAS, SAN, or 25/40GBASE-T networks.

The rugged yet flexible LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket offers flame retardancy and low smoke emission, making it safer for installations in confined or industrial spaces. Featuring snagless 50-micro gold-plated RJ-45 connectors, the cable ensures a secure fit and durability, rated for over 750 mating cycles. Its ability to withstand bends of up to ±90 degrees allows for versatile routing in tight spaces, while the fully shielded design provides confidence in maintaining signal integrity. This cable is compatible with PoE++ devices supporting up to 100W, facilitating the delivery of power and data to PoE-enabled security cameras, access points, and other network devices.

Backward compatible with Cat 6 and 6a standards, this patch cord offers seamless integration into existing network infrastructure. It has been Fluke channel tested to guarantee Cat8 performance, ensuring dependable and high-quality connectivity. Suitable for high-density network environments, it supports critical applications where speed and reliability are paramount, while its environmentally friendly LSZH jacket aligns with safety and compliance standards. Whether deploying new systems or upgrading current setups, this StarTech.com Cat8 Ethernet cable provides a robust solution for demanding network requirements.
