The JBX71717 CAT8 S/FTP shielded ethernet cable is engineered for professionals and enterprises demanding uncompromising network performance. At 35 feet in length, this cable provides substantial reach while maintaining signal integrity and delivering impressive 40GB per second data rates—ideal for future-proofed network infrastructure. **Superior Shielding Technology** The S/FTP (Shielded Foil Twisted Pair) construction offers dual-layer protection against electromagnetic interference. Each twisted pair is individually shielded with foil, and the entire cable features an additional outer shield. This comprehensive shielding architecture ensures clean signal transmission even in electrically hostile environments alongside power cables and other network equipment. **Premium Materials & Construction** Crafted with >99.95% oxygen-free copper conductors, this cable minimizes signal loss and maximizes conductivity. The 24AWG gauge provides the optimal balance between flexibility and durability, while the snagless RJ45 connectors prevent accidental snagging and damage during installation. The 6.5mm outer diameter ensures easy routing through conduits and cable management systems. **Compliance & Reliability** Meets ANSI/TIA-568-C.2-1 Category 8 standards and complies with RoHS/ELV directives (EU directive 2002/95/EC), guaranteeing environmental responsibility and safety. Riser-rated (OFNR) jacketing qualifies it for in-wall installations in commercial buildings. The cable operates reliably across wide temperature ranges (-20 to +75°C), making it suitable for various deployment environments. **Applications & Use Cases** Perfect for data centers, server rooms, network switching infrastructure, high-speed computing facilities, and professional audio/video installations requiring robust connectivity. The straight-through polarity configuration ensures standard network connectivity with RJ45-to-RJ45 patch panel and device connections. **Warranty & Support** Backed by a lifetime limited warranty demonstrating manufacturer confidence in quality. Free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99, with convenient fulfillment from multiple U.S. locations (Danville CA, Fort Worth TX, Beaufort SC). Custom lengths available for specialized installation requirements. Invest in network infrastructure that delivers performance, reliability, and longevity.
