The UGREEN Cat8 Modular Plugs Shielded Round Braided Cable (80429) is designed for users who demand the absolute peak of wired network performance. Whether you are a competitive gamer, a high-resolution streamer, or managing a professional data environment, this cable provides a future-proof foundation for your connectivity needs. Performance is at the core of this cable, supporting staggering data transmission speeds of up to 40Gbps and a bandwidth of 2000MHz. This ensures that large file transfers, HD video streaming, and online gaming occur without lag, buffering, or drops in resolution quality. To maintain these speeds, UGREEN employs a sophisticated anti-interference architecture. The cable utilizes four shielded foiled twisted pairs (F/FTP) combined with an aluminum foil shielding layer. This rigorous design drastically reduces crosstalk from adjacent pairs and external cables, ensuring a stable and clean signal. Build quality is equally impressive. The cable is wrapped in a high-quality cotton braided cord, providing a round, flexible, yet heavy-duty exterior. Rigorous testing shows the cable can withstand at least 10,000 bends without breaking, making it ideal for tight setups and long-term reliability. Versatility is built-in with gold-plated RJ45 connectors that are compatible with a vast array of hardware, including PS5, Xbox, PC, routers, and modems. It is fully backward compatible with Cat7, Cat6e, Cat6, Cat5e, and Cat5 systems. Additionally, this 1-meter cable supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing you to power devices like PoE cameras without needing an extra power supply.
