The JBX72071 CAT8 S/FTP Shielded Ethernet Cable represents the pinnacle of network connectivity solutions for professionals demanding maximum performance and reliability. This 10-foot cable is engineered with cutting-edge technology to support next-generation network infrastructure requirements. **Superior Shielding Technology** Utilizing S/FTP (Shielded Foil Twisted Pair) construction, this cable provides comprehensive electromagnetic interference (EMI) protection. Each twisted pair is individually foiled, and an additional overall shield envelops the entire cable assembly, ensuring pristine signal transmission even in electrically noisy environments. **Exceptional Performance Specifications** With a 40GB data rate capability, this CAT8 cable future-proofs your network investment. The 28AWG gauge provides the optimal balance between flexibility and conductivity. The conductors are crafted from oxygen-free copper (>99.95% purity), guaranteeing superior electrical properties and minimal signal degradation over distance. **Professional Design Features** The snagless connector design prevents accidental disconnection during installation and maintenance, reducing downtime and frustration. The 6.5mm outside diameter and riser-rated (OFNR) jacketing make it suitable for in-wall installations while maintaining safety compliance. The distinctive green coloring facilitates network organization and identification. **Standards Compliance** This cable meets ANSI/TIA-568-C.2-1 Category 8 standards and complies with EU RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) directives, making it environmentally responsible and compliant with global regulations. **Extended Operating Range** The cable operates reliably across temperatures from -20°C to +75°C (-4°F to 167°F), making it suitable for diverse installation environments from climate-controlled server rooms to challenging industrial settings. **Lifetime Warranty Protection** Backed by a lifetime limited warranty, this investment is protected against manufacturing defects, demonstrating our confidence in product quality and durability. **Ideal Applications** Perfect for data centers, server room infrastructure, high-speed network installations, multimedia streaming, gaming networks, and professional AV installations. Custom lengths are available for specific project requirements.
