Pearstone Cat 8 Double-Shielded Patch Cable (14')

Designed for 25 and 40GbE networks that support the Cat 8 standard, the Cat 8 Double-Shielded Patch Cable from Pearstone is an ideal solution for network scalability that will accommodate ever-increasing bandwidth demands and Ethernet speeds. With transmission speeds of up to 40 Gb/s and a bandwidth rating of up to 2000 MHz, this cable is ideal for large network installations in offices, data centers, or entire buildings. Dual male gold-plated RJ45 connectors provide reliable conductivity, while four tightly twisted pairs of stranded copper conductors help eliminate interference and crosstalk. Support for PoE, PoE+, and PoE++ delivers up to 60W of power to compatible devices, meaning they won't need a separate power outlet or supply. Also featured is a snagless boot design, which helps prevent the connectors from getting caught on other cables when being pulled through a bundle.

This Cat 8 cable boasts data transfer speeds of up to 40 Gb/s and a 2000 MHz bandwidth, which is perfect for connecting to 25 Gigabit and 40 Gigabit Ethernet networks. Upgrading to the new standard of Cat 8 patch cables will keep your network compatible with the ever-increasing demand for higher transmission speeds for data-intensive applications and streaming UHD content.

Combining electric power with data transmission is what makes PoE such a valuable and convenient asset to offices, schools, and residences. Connect security cameras, modems and routers, phones, and digital displays without the need for outlets or extra electrical wiring to operate each device. With PoE, PoE+, and PoE++, this Cat 8 cable can deliver up to 60W of power.

Gold plating enhances conductivity and assures the fastest possible data transmission speeds. Gold connectors are also noncorrosive for longer cable life and minimal signal degradation over time.

Copper conductors are one of the most reliable materials for conductivity and flawless signal transfer. 28 AWG stranded bare copper construction assures maximum efficiency with minimal signal loss.

The four pairs of stranded bare copper conductors are tightly twisted to reject radio frequency (RF) and electromagnetic (EM) interference as well as minimize near-end crosstalk that can slow down the speed of your network.

Double-shielding minimizes crosstalk as well as RF and EM interference to maintain data reliability and transmission speed that's crucial to your network. Each twisted pair is shielded with an aluminum-mylar wrap, and all four pairs are surrounded by an aluminum braid. For even more complete protection, the RJ45 connectors are also shielded so your data is shielded and protected at all points along the cable.

If you've ever added or removed an Ethernet cable from a multiport Ethernet switch or the back of a machine rack, you know a cable's release tab can and will catch or snag on anything. This cable's molded boot covers the tab so you can smoothly pull the cable through a bundle without it snagging.
