StarTech.com 50ft White Cat8 S/FTP Ethernet Cable – 25/40Gbps, 2000MHz, PoE++ Support, Snagless RJ45 Connector

StarTech 50ft White CAT8 Ethernet Cable, Snagless RJ45, 25G/40G 2000MHz, 100W PoE, S/FTP, 26AWG Pure Bare Copper, LSZH Network Patch Cord

Connect your high-speed enterprise network seamlessly with the StarTech.com 50ft White Cat8 S/FTP Ethernet Cable. Designed for demanding data environments, this cable supports data transfer rates up to 25/40Gbps and features a maximum frequency of 2000MHz, enabling four times the throughput of standard Cat6a cables. Its robust construction ensures reliable performance across long runs, making it ideal for connecting switches, NAS, SANs, and SFP modules in high-density network setups. The cable's shielded twisted pair (S/FTP) configuration, utilizing aluminum-mylar foil and tinned copper braid, provides excellent EMI protection, safeguarding signal integrity in environments with significant electromagnetic interference. The pure bare copper conductors and braided shielding collectively ensure low resistance and consistent conductivity, vital for high-bandwidth applications. The snagless RJ45 connectors with 50-micron gold plating offer a secure fit, minimizing wear and maintaining optimal signal quality through more than 750 mating cycles. Its Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket enhances safety by emitting minimal smoke and toxic fumes in case of fire, making it suitable for enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces such as data centers, industrial facilities, or transportation vehicles. The cable's flexibility allows it to withstand bends up to 90 degrees, facilitating installation in tight spaces and complex routing scenarios. Supporting Power over Ethernet (PoE++) up to 100W, it efficiently powers devices like IP cameras, access points, and PoE switches, simplifying network deployment. Certified by ETL and tested with a Fluke DSX2-8000 CableAnalyzer, this cable guarantees compliance with ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standards, ensuring minimal insertion loss, return loss, and crosstalk for stable long-distance connections. Compatibility with Cat 6/6a and Cat 5/5e networks ensures seamless integration into existing setups, providing future-proof connectivity for evolving network demands. Whether for data centers, industrial environments, or high-performance enterprise networks, this StarTech.com Cat8 Ethernet cable combines durability, safety, and high-speed performance to meet the most rigorous networking requirements.
