This bulk riser rated Cat8 cable is 1000 feet in length and consists of 4 pairs of 22AWG solid wires with individually foil shielded pairs plus an overall braid. It is designed for use in data centers and server rooms for high-speed switch-to-switch communications, typically supporting 25G and 40G networks. The cable is riser (CMR) rated and ETLus / c(UL)us listed, RoHS and REACH Compliant. It is typically used in riser environments terminated directly onto a CAT8 patch panel or CAT8 jack.
