　　Cat8 SFTP Patch Cord: 40Gbps Ultra-High Speed Solution with Transparent Pricing

　　With the rapid evolution of 25GbE and 40GbE networks, data centers, enterprise core networks, and high-end industrial facilities demand cabling solutions that can keep pace with ultra-high-speed transmission requirements. Our Cat8 SFTP (Shielded Foil Twisted Pair) Patch Cord is engineered to meet the rigorous TIA-568.2-D and ISO/IEC 11801-1 standards, delivering 2000MHz bandwidth and 40Gbps transmission capabilities. What sets us apart is our commitment to balancing exceptional performance with competitive pricing, making this future-proof cabling solution accessible for global customers seeking high-value network infrastructure upgrades.

　　1. Product Overview & Core Technical Parameters

　　Our Cat8 SFTP Patch Cord is specifically designed for 25Gb/s and 40Gb/s Ethernet transmission, featuring an advanced double-shielding structure (pair-wise aluminum foil shielding + overall tinned copper braided shielding) to achieve superior anti-interference performance. It supports 40Gbps data transmission up to 30 meters and is backward compatible with Cat7, Cat6a, and lower-category devices, ensuring seamless integration into existing network systems. Below are the detailed technical parameters:

　　Standard Compliance: TIA-568.2-D, ISO/IEC 11801-1, IEC 61156-9

　　Transmission Performance: Supports bandwidth up to 2000MHz, enabling 40Gbps data transmission at 30m; 25Gbps at 100m; compatible with PoE/PoE+/PoE++ (IEEE 802.3af/at/bt)

　　Conductor: 24-28 AWG stranded oxygen-free copper (OFC) conductor, purity ≥ 99.99%, DC resistance ≤ 6.92 Ω/100m, ensuring low signal attenuation and high conductivity

　　Cabling Structure: SFTP (Shielded Foil Twisted Pair) – 4 pairs of individually foil-shielded twisted pairs with optimized twist ratio + overall tinned copper braided shield (coverage ≥ 90%)

　　Jacket Material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) or PVC, flame retardant grade: UL94 V-0, RoHS and REACH compliant

　　Connector: RJ45 8P8C with copper shell, 50-100μ'' gold-plated contacts, snagless boot design for strain relief and anti-dust protection

　　Operating Temperature: -30℃ ~ 60℃, adaptable to harsh indoor environments such as data centers and industrial control rooms

　　Cable Length: 0.5m, 1m, 2m, 3m, 5m, 10m, 20m, or customized according to customer requirements

　　2. Key Advantages: Performance Leap & Cost-Effectiveness

　　2.1 Ultra-High Bandwidth & 40Gbps Transmission

　　Boasting a maximum bandwidth of 2000MHz – over 3 times that of Cat7 (600MHz) – our Cat8 patch cord is capable of supporting 40Gbps ultra-high-speed data transmission, which is 4 times faster than Cat7's 10Gbps. This makes it the ideal choice for bandwidth-intensive applications such as 8K/16K video editing, large-scale cloud computing, high-frequency trading, and mass IoT data transmission. The advanced transmission performance ensures minimal latency and packet loss, guaranteeing the stability of mission-critical business operations.

　　2.2 Superior Anti-Interference Capability

　　The double-shielding structure (pair-wise foil shielding + overall braided shielding) provides comprehensive protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI). This design is particularly critical for high-density cabling environments like data center server racks, where multiple cables and high-power equipment generate complex interference. Each batch of cables undergoes rigorous testing with professional Fluke equipment to verify shielding effectiveness, ensuring stable signal transmission even in harsh interference environments.

　　2.3 Competitive Pricing with Volume Discounts

　　We leverage advanced production processes (such as skin-foam-skin insulation technology) and bulk raw material procurement to optimize production costs, offering our Cat8 SFTP Patch Cord at a competitive price point without compromising quality. Compared to other premium Cat8 products on the market, our pricing structure is more flexible, with substantial volume discounts available. This allows both large enterprises and growing businesses to access high-performance Cat8 cabling without excessive investment.

　　2.4 Durable Construction & Easy Installation

　　High-purity oxygen-free copper conductors and gold-plated connectors ensure excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance, extending the service life to over 15 years. The copper-shelled RJ45 connectors enhance shielding continuity, further improving signal integrity. The snagless boot design reduces stress on the cable-jacket interface during installation and maintenance, preventing damage. Despite its robust shielding, the cable maintains good flexibility, making it easy to route in tight spaces such as network cabinets and ceiling ducts, reducing installation time and labor costs.

　　3. Typical Application Scenarios

　　Our Cat8 SFTP Patch Cord is tailored for high-demand network environments that require ultra-high speed and stable transmission. Typical application scenarios include:

　　Data Centers & Server Rooms: Ideal for connecting high-performance servers, top-of-rack switches, storage area networks (SAN), and NAS devices, supporting high-density 25GbE/40GbE transmission.

　　Financial Institutions: Suitable for banks, stock exchanges, and cryptocurrency trading platforms, ensuring low-latency and secure transmission of real-time transaction data.

　　Broadcasting & Media Production: Perfect for 8K/16K video editing studios, live broadcasting centers, and media cloud platforms, meeting the ultra-high bandwidth requirements of professional media production.

　　Industrial Automation & Smart Factories: Resistant to industrial electromagnetic interference, supporting reliable transmission of high-speed control signals and IoT sensor data in smart manufacturing environments.

　　High-End Enterprise Core Networks: Applicable to large enterprise headquarters and research and development centers, providing the backbone for high-speed internal networks and cloud collaboration platforms.

　　4. Quality Control & Certification

　　We implement strict quality control measures throughout the entire production process, from raw material inspection to final product testing. All Cat8 SFTP Patch Cords pass 100% performance testing, including bandwidth, insertion loss, return loss, crosstalk, and shielding effectiveness. The product has obtained international certifications such as CE, RoHS, REACH, and ETL verification, ensuring compliance with global market standards. We also offer a 30-year system warranty, demonstrating our confidence in product reliability.
