StarTech.com 2m Blue CAT8 Ethernet Cable | Snagless S/FTP LSZH
The StarTech.com 2m Blue CAT8 Ethernet Cable, Snagless RJ45, 25G/40G, 2000MHz, 100W PoE++, S/FTP, 26AWG Pure Bare Copper Wire, LSZH, Shielded Network Patch Cord w/Strain Reliefs,… connects reliably to high-speed UK networks. It is built for data centre engineers, AV installers, and home lab enthusiasts who need 25G/40G throughput. The 2000MHz maximum frequency enables up to four times higher throughput than Cat6a. Pure bare copper conductors ensure low resistance and stable signal integrity.
2m LSZH Cat8 Cable for 25G/40G Networks
This cable supports 40GBase-T standards for demanding applications. It connects 25G/40G switches, NAS devices, and SANs. The S/FTP shielding protects against electromagnetic interference in dense racks. You get consistent performance across varied UK environments.
100W PoE++ Support for Powered Devices
The cable supports PoE++ (4PPoE) with a 100W budget. It powers switches, access points, and IP cameras without extra adapters. This reduces cable clutter in UK installations. Always confirm your switch or injector supports IEEE 802.3bt.
Snagless RJ45 with Gold-Plated Contacts
The snagless boot protects the RJ45 connector during installation. Gold-plated contacts minimise corrosion and ensure a precise fit. Rated beyond 750 mating cycles for long-term reliability. The 26AWG pure bare copper wire improves conductivity.
LSZH Jacket for Safer UK Installations
The Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket emits minimal smoke and toxic fumes. It suits poorly ventilated areas, trains, and aircraft. The cable withstands -/+90-degree bends for tight routing. Operating temperature is 0–50°C for UK indoor use.
