Tripp Lite Cat8 40G Snagless SSTP Ethernet Cable (RJ45 M/M), PoE, Blue, 1 ft. (0.3 m)

The Tripp Lite N272-F01-BL is a Cat8 Ethernet cable designed for network links that have no room for hesitation. It moves data at up to 40 Gbps across a one foot run, offering four times the speed of a Cat6a patch while keeping excess slack out of crowded racks.

With bandwidth that reaches 1200 MHz, the cable handles simultaneous data, voice, and video traffic without the stutter that can frustrate users during large file transfers, voice calls, or high-resolution streams. This level of performance makes it a natural fit for top-of-rack connections in data centers, edge aggregation switches, or any workbench where fast testing equipment lives.

Because the cable supports Power over Ethernet, a single run carries both data and power to devices such as security cameras, wireless access points, or small network switches. Technicians can mount hardware where outlets are scarce and still avoid separate power bricks and extension cords.

An SSTP construction that wraps each pair in foil and the entire bundle in braid keeps external EMI and RFI at bay, so nearby power lines or heavy machinery do not undercut signal quality. The snagless RJ45 plugs shield the latch tabs during pulls through raceways or patch-panel bundles, reducing the chance of cracked hooks and re-terminations. A blue PVC jacket gives quick visual confirmation when tracing runs in a sea of identical patch cables.

In server rooms, office wiring closets, or a home lab aimed at 40 Gbps experimentation, the Tripp Lite N272-F01-BL delivers dependable throughput in a length that stays tidy and out of the way.
