## Summary description

The StarTech.com 1m Blue CAT8 Ethernet Cable features snagless RJ45 connectors, supporting data transfer rates up to 40Gbps and 2000MHz bandwidth. It is constructed with 26AWG pure bare copper wire and S/FTP shielding for enhanced performance and reduced interference. Ideal for high-speed networking and PoE applications, this cable is Fluke channel tested for reliability.

## Long description

The StarTech.com NLBL-1M-CAT8-PATCH is a 1 m blue Shielded LSZH Cat8 Ethernet patch cable with snagless RJ45 connectors, designed to connect reliably to 25G/40G networks. It supports data transfer rates up to 40Gbps and a maximum frequency of 2000 MHz, and is constructed with 26AWG pure bare copper conductors and S/FTP shielding for improved conductivity and reduced electromagnetic interference.
Advantages
This Cat8 cable offers four-times higher throughput than Cat6a thanks to its 2000 MHz rating and supports up to 40Gbps. The 4-pair S/FTP design combines aluminum-mylar foil and a tinned-copper braid around each pair to minimize EMI. Snagless 50-micro gold-plated RJ45 connectors provide a secure fit and are rated for more than 750 mating cycles. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket reduces smoke and toxic gas emission in case of fire and is flexible enough to withstand ±90° bends, allowing neat routing in confined spaces.
Suitable for (tasks / use cases)
 Connecting 25G/40G switches and SFP modules
 High-speed network links to NAS and SAN devices
 Power over Ethernet (PoE++) deployments up to 100 W
 High-density data center and enterprise network environments
 Upgrading or integrating with existing Cat6/6a and Cat5e infrastructure
Key specifications

How to use
Insert each RJ45 connector into the matching RJ45 ports on your networking devices until the latch clicks to ensure a secure connection. Use the 1 m cable length for short patch connections between switches, SFP modules, NAS or SAN devices and PoE-enabled equipment. Route the cable through cable management channels or trays as needed, avoiding sharp kinks; the cable tolerates ±90° bends but should not be forcibly bent beyond this range.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance, deploy this Cat8 cable in 25G/40GBASE-T links and in PoE++ setups requiring up to 100 W. Maintain proper shielding continuity by ensuring connectors and ports are grounded where applicable, and keep the cable away from high-power electrical sources to minimize residual interference.
