StarTech.com 15 ft White Cat8 S/FTP Ethernet Cable for High-Speed Networks

StarTech.com 15ft White CAT8 Ethernet Cable, Snagless RJ45, 25G/40G 2000MHz, 100W PoE, S/FTP, 26AWG Pure Bare Copper, LSZH Network Patch Cord

The StarTech.com NLWH-15F-CAT8-PATCH Ethernet cable is designed for demanding enterprise network environments requiring high bandwidth and reliable connectivity. With a maximum frequency of 2000MHz, this cable supports data transfer rates up to 40 Gbps, making it ideal for 25/40GBASE-T networks, high-speed switches, NAS, SANs, and SFP modules. Its construction ensures minimal signal loss and interference, enabling seamless data transmission in data centers, server rooms, and other critical infrastructures. The cable's shielded S/FTP design, featuring aluminum-mylar foil and tinned copper braid, provides excellent EMI protection, maintaining consistent performance even in electrically noisy environments. The 26 AWG pure bare copper conductors contribute to optimal conductivity and longevity, while the snagless gold-plated connectors reduce wear and ensure secure connections through hundreds of mating cycles. The LSZH flame-retardant jacket enhances safety by emitting low smoke and toxic fumes, making it suitable for enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces such as industrial facilities, transportation, and residential applications. This 15-foot cable is flexible enough to withstand bends up to +/-90 degrees, allowing for easy routing through tight spaces and complex setups. Supporting Power over Ethernet (PoE++) up to 100W, it reliably supplies power to PoE devices like security cameras, access points, and IP cameras, reducing the need for separate power supplies. Its backward compatibility with Cat 6/6a and Cat 5/5e ensures seamless integration with existing network infrastructure. Backed by a lifetime warranty and tested to meet Cat8 standards, this cable guarantees high performance and durability, making it a versatile choice for high-density, high-speed network deployments worldwide.
