Tripp Lite Cat8 40G Snagless SSTP Ethernet Cable (RJ45 M/M), PoE, White, 15 ft. (4.6 m)

Overview

The Tripp Lite N272-F15-WH is a Cat8 Ethernet cable designed to deliver high-speed data transfer up to 40 Gbps with a bandwidth of 1200 MHz. It is ideal for environments like data centers, server rooms, and broadcast studios where large file transfers and high-density virtual machine support are common. The cable also supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing it to transmit both data and power over a single connection, which is especially useful for devices such as security cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones.

Key features

• Supports Cat8 standard for ultra-fast data throughput and high bandwidth, ensuring smooth and efficient network performance.
• Power over Ethernet capability eliminates the need for separate power cables, simplifying installation of network devices in hard-to-reach locations.
• SSTP shielding with foil and braid layers protects against electromagnetic and radio frequency interference, maintaining signal integrity in electrically noisy environments.
• 15-foot length offers flexibility for typical rack-to-switch or patch panel connections without excess cable slack.
• RJ45 male connectors feature snagless boots that protect the latch during routing and reduce the risk of damage in tight spaces.
• White PVC jacket makes the cable easy to identify among other cables during maintenance or troubleshooting.
• 26 AWG stranded copper conductors provide a good balance of flexibility for frequent moves and durability to preserve signal quality.
• Backed by a lifetime limited warranty, ensuring long-term reliability and peace of mind.
