- Speed and performance: CAT8 supports a bandwidth of up to 2 GHz (3 x Cat7-600 MHz) and data transfer up to 40 Gbps (4 x Cat7-10 Gbps). It delivers higher transmission speed, shielding, and suitability for demanding environments compared with CAT6 and CAT7. Ideal for fast, stable, interference-resistant network connections in data centers, enterprise networks, heavy industry, gaming and multimedia applications. - Stability and anti-interference: double shielded design with 4 pairs of 100% 26 AWG pure copper wires reduces crosstalk, noise and signal interference. Shielded RJ45 connectors with 50 micron gold-plated contacts provide corrosion resistance and long-term performance. The cable supports PoE functionality. - Durability and flexibility: reinforced soft PVC jacket offers abrasion and corrosion resistance, strong EMI/RFI protection, waterproofing, and resilience to heat, cold and UV exposure. Very low signal attenuation enables long-distance transmission and high resistance to external interference. Suitable for indoor and outdoor use, including direct burial underground. - Compatibility and safety: meets CAT8 requirements and is compatible with CAT7, CAT6, CAT6a, CAT5e and CAT5. Designed for server applications, cloud computing, data centers and high-performance networking. Works with devices having an RJ45 interface, such as routers, switches, modems, network adapters, hubs, PoE devices, game consoles (PS5/4/3, x-box family), computers, smart TVs, and more. Cat8 cable is an excellent choice for smart home and smart office. - Use scenarios: data centers and cloud computing; enterprise networks and high-performance workstations; gaming, streaming and smart home/smart office setups.
