Cat 8 Ethernet Cable 50 ft, SFTP Gold Plated RJ45 Shielded LAN Network Cable Outdoor, Ethernet Cable Heavy Duty High Speed 40Gbps 2000Mhz,LAN Cable for Gaming/Waterproof/Modem/PS5/4/3 (15 Clips)

It’s a heavy-duty cable, and far as it is working…. It works, no problem with the connection and feed. This product is as the vendor describes.

Im reviewing the MEIPEK brand Ethernet cable described as: Cat 8 Shielded Ethernet Cable 30ft, Heavy Duty High Speed Network LAN Cable 40Gbps 2000Mhz, SFTP Shielded Cat 8 Internet Cable Direct Burial, Gold Plated RJ45 Cable for Gaming/Modem/Router(10 Clips) I needed a 30 Ethernet cable that was rugged and shielded enough to run outdoors between my upstairs router and a TV downstairs that was installed in just such a location as to not get sufficient Wifi reception from any of my three Wifi routers. This cable is doing the job perfectly! Like many buyers, I dont actually need Cat8 speeds (if you are lucky enough to have Gigabit fiber Ethernet to your home, that only requires Cat5 on your LAN to keep up unless you have a lot of fast devices trying to talk to each other on your local network), but its good to future proof. The boots on the jacks are well constructed and dont look like theyll break easily (a common failure point on Ethernet cables). The outer jacket looks exactly like what Id expect for an SFTP cable suited for direct burial -- good quality, thick PVC. The only thing that was a detractor was that they included white cable clips for a black cable. Fortunately I had some black clips to use, so I didnt use the ones they sent. Overall, this is a cable thats a good value at its price point (currently $23.99).

Excellent manufacture, SUPERB length. Good purchase.

Works exactly like youd think it would. Fastest I can test it with is a 1Gb/s connection speed, but its been working great so far.

I did not try to test this cable for high speed data transfer so I cannot confirm whether it meets CAT 8 requirements. However the cable gauge appears to support high speed traffic. I did use it in my home office to connect my router to 1G Ethernet switch which includes a Synology Network Attached Storage unit. Traffic is smooth. The connectors lock solidly. Id rate this a good value.

They wish they made this one! Solid, gold-plated, indoor/outdoor, buriable and insane speed capable with some of the toughest plug ends Ive ever seen. They give you the brad tacs to even run it along your baseboard into another location and while straight-up distances over 25ft usually dont do the best with this being CAT 8 forgettaboutit! Length choices too but about 50% less than the competition of other cables. Cable plugs have sturday clips on them too, most of the time if the cable gets puled you break those tabs on the plug and youre stuck. Here itd take some serious work to even crack one! I dont have Gig Fiber or 8K to test, but Im solid into 4K and CAT 6e and this outperformed the standards so Im happy!

Used for relocating our modem from a far corner of the house to a more centralized location in order to get better WiFi signal, This cable was run through the ceiling where other electrical wiring is located and the need for a shielded cable was required. This worked without any issues ( especially my concerns of electromagnetic interference (EMI), Very pleased with this cable.

I am using this CAT 8 cable to run 1080p and 4k video and audio across rooms using an HDMI ethernet extender. I have extended the cable out to its full length and most video comes across wonderfully with full audio. There are some source issues with the extender boxes, but the Cat 8 cable holds no blame there. The shielding here is also an extra benefit if running this cable through walls were Romex cable may be co-existing.

I chose this CAT8 cable for its indoor/outdoor rating and its suitable for direct underground bury without conduit. This is perfect for an upcoming project requiring roughly 20ft of cable to be buried underground between the main residence and a detached garage with office space. This CAT8 cable is backwards compatible with current 10/100/1000mbps equipment and will simplify upgrading my network equipment in the future up to 40 Gigabit speeds. This is top of the line cable that is design supported the fastest network transmission speeds. I highly recommend this to anyone that has an outdoor or underground application or to anyone wishing to futureproof their current network infrastructure.

Man this thing is heavy duty. Shielding is great because this cable is thick and heavy. It’s got good plating on the connectors. Seems like a great cable
