Extended 2M Cat8 cable for powerful 40G links
Grayle S/FTP CAT.8.1 Patchkabel 2.0 Meter Zwart LSOH AWG26
Description
As network infrastructures scale, cable length becomes a functional design choice rather than a simple measurement.
This cat 8 ethernet cable 2m is developed for high-bandwidth environments where devices are separated by several rack units or positioned in adjacent racks.
The cable is engineered to sustain cat 8 cable speeds up to 40 Gbit/s, operating at 2000 MHz for stable 25GBase-T and 40GBase-T transmission.
The 2 meter configuration provides additional placement freedom compared to shorter patch leads, while maintaining the electrical integrity required for multi-gigabit switching, storage networking, and aggregation layer connectivity.
With S/FTP shielding and PiMF architecture, interference from power distribution units, switching hardware, and adjacent cabling is effectively mitigated, supporting predictable performance in dense installations.

Technical Features
This cat 8 ethernet cable 2m features shielded RJ45 8(8) connectors at both ends with molded strain relief.
The 50µ gold plated contact surfaces ensure consistent conductivity and stable signal transfer even with repeated reconnections.
Internally, the cable uses AWG 26/7 stranded full copper conductors combined with S/FTP shielding and PiMF pair protection.
The round cable construction has an outer diameter of 6.0 ±0.2 mm, providing a balance between durability and manageability inside cable guides.
Choose the 2M Cat 8.1 S/FTP patch cable when you need 40G transmission performance combined with additional installation flexibility inside professional network environments.
