Startech RJ45 LSZH-S to FTP Cat8 Patch Cable, 0.50 m, Blue

Features of the Blue 50 cm Snagless 25G/40G CAT8 Ethernet Cable (
) The 50 cm CAT8 Ethernet cable is designed to provide high-speed, low-latency connections in professional, business, and advanced network environments. Compatible with speeds of up to 40 Gbps and frequencies of 2000 MHz, it delivers performance far superior to previous generations such as Cat6a. Its S/FTP shielded construction, combined with 26 AWG pure copper conductors, ensures stable and reliable transmission even in demanding installations.
High-performance connectivity for 25G and 40G networks
This CAT8 cable is optimized for modern network infrastructures that require high bandwidth and maximum stability. It is ideal for connecting switches, NAS devices, servers, SFP modules, network cards, and 40GBASE-T devices.

Transfer speeds of up to 40 Gbps
Operating frequency of 2000 MHz
Compatible with 10G, 25G, and 40GBASE-T networks
Up to 4 times faster than Cat6a
Compatible with Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6a

S/FTP shielding and pure copper conductor
The internal construction uses 4 shielded twisted pairs (S/FTP) with aluminum-mylar coating and additional twisting to minimize electromagnetic interference. The 26 AWG pure copper conductor improves conductivity and reduces signal loss.

S/FTP shielding with aluminum-mylar and braided mesh
Reduced EMI interference and greater stability
Reliable transmission and low latency
TIA/EIA-T568B

Compatible with PoE++ up to 100W
Thanks to its compatibility with Power over Ethernet (PoE++), this cable can power network devices without the need for additional power cables. It is ideal for IP cameras, Wi-Fi access points, PoE switches, and other professional network devices.

Compatible with IEEE 802.3bt Type 4
Supports up to 100W of PoE++ power
Ideal for remotely powered devices
Connection and power delivery via a single cable

Snagless design and durable construction
The snagless design protects the RJ-45 connector from damage and snagging during installation. In addition, the gold-plated connectors ensure a precise fit and a long service life, withstanding more than 750 insertion cycles.

Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors
Snagless design without latch
Rated for over 750 insertions
Integrated strain relief
Cable outer diameter: 5.6 mm

LSZH jacket safe for professional installations
The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket reduces the emission of smoke and toxic gases in the event of a fire, making it suitable for enclosed spaces, offices, industrial facilities, and environments where greater safety is required.

LSZH Flame-Retardant Coating
Low emission of smoke and toxic gases
Suitable for poorly ventilated spaces
Flexible and resistant to bends of +/-90°
