FAQ
What is the maximum data transfer rate of this CAT8 cable?
This Axiom CAT8 cable supports data transfer rates up to 40 Gbit/s, making it suitable for high-speed network applications such as 25GbE and 40GbE Ethernet. The 2000 MHz bandwidth ensures reliable performance for demanding data center and enterprise environments.
How long is this patch cable, and what are its connectors?
The cable is 50 feet (15.24 meters) long with RJ-45 male connectors on both ends. This length provides flexibility for connecting network devices across rooms or between equipment racks, while the standard RJ-45 connectors ensure compatibility with most network hardware.
Does this cable have shielding, and what type is it?
Yes, this cable features S/FTP (Shielded/Foiled Twisted Pair) shielding. It includes double shielding with foil material to protect against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency (RF) signals, ensuring stable data transmission in environments with electrical noise.
What is the purpose of the snagless boot on this cable?
The snagless boot prevents the RJ-45 connector latch from catching on other cables or equipment during installation and removal. This design reduces the risk of accidental disconnections and connector damage, improving durability in frequently accessed network setups.
