This StarTech.com Cat8 Ethernet network cable enables connections to 25G/40G networks via RJ-45 connectors. Its construction with 26AWG pure copper wire and S/FTP shielding reduces resistance and protects against electromagnetic interference. The maximum frequency of 2000 MHz delivers superior performance compared to Cat6a, supporting PoE++ output of up to 100 W.
The LSZH jacket emits low smoke and toxic gases in the event of a fire, facilitating its use in spaces with specific safety regulations. The 50-micron gold-plated connectors are snagless, preventing snags and withstanding more than 750 mating cycles. The design includes strain relief and supports ±90-degree bends, making installation easier in tight spaces. Each pair is shielded with aluminum mylar foil and tinned copper braid.
