StarTech.com 1ft Blue CAT8 Ethernet Cable with Snagless RJ45 Connectors, 40 Gbps Data Transfer, 2000MHz, PoE++ Support

StarTech.com 1ft Blue CAT8 Ethernet Cable, Snagless RJ45, 25G/40G 2000MHz, 100W PoE, S/FTP, 26AWG Pure Bare Copper, LSZH Network Patch Cord

The StarTech.com NLBL-1F-CAT8-PATCH is a high-performance Category 8 Ethernet patch cable designed for demanding enterprise network environments. This 1-foot blue cable features shielded S/FTP construction with 26 AWG pure bare copper conductors, providing superior conductivity and minimal signal loss for high-speed data transmission. Its 2000MHz frequency range enables up to four times higher throughput than traditional Cat6a cables, making it ideal for 25/40Gbps connections. The cable supports Power over Ethernet (PoE++) up to 100W, supporting critical devices such as IP cameras, access points, and switches, ensuring reliable power and data delivery in a single cable. Its snagless design with gold-plated connectors ensures a secure and durable connection, rated for over 750 mating cycles, and the low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) jacket makes it suitable for installations in enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces, including industrial, train, or aircraft environments. Built to withstand bends up to 90 degrees and route easily in tight spaces, this cable combines flexibility with durability for versatile deployment. Backward compatible with Cat 6/6a and Cat 5/5e standards, it guarantees seamless integration with existing network infrastructure. Fluke channel tested for guaranteed Cat8 performance, this cable is a reliable choice for high-density, high-speed networks that require optimal throughput and safety compliance.
