Description
The Tripp Lite N226-01K-BL Cat8 bulk Ethernet cable is designed for ultra-high-speed data center and enterprise network installations requiring maximum performance and reliability. Supporting 25 Gbps and 40 Gbps transmission speeds, this premium Cat8 cable delivers up to four times the throughput of Cat6a while supporting high-bandwidth applications up to 2 GHz.
Constructed with 22 AWG solid copper conductors and S/FTP shielding, the cable provides exceptional protection against EMI and RFI interference, ensuring clean signal integrity in dense cable pathways. The CMR-rated PVC jacket makes it suitable for premise installations such as air ducts and drop ceilings, while the blue jacket enables easy visual identification for organized cable management.
Supplied as a 1000-foot bulk spool, this Cat8 cable allows installers to cut custom lengths for large-scale deployments, making it ideal for data centers, network backbones, and high-performance PoE-enabled environments.
