EXTRALINK LAN Patch Cord Cat.8 U/FTP 15m 40G Flat Shielded Foiled Twisted Pair Bare Copper White

For high-density data center links where round cables snag and airflow suffers, this flat Cat.8 patch cord delivers 40 Gbps over 15 meters with bare copper conductors and U/FTP shielding. It is built for 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T server-to-switch runs, with a slim profile that routes under carpet, along baseboards, or through cable managers without bulk.

Highlights

• Category 8 performance: 2000 MHz bandwidth, 40 Gbps data rate
• Flat, flexible design: easy to run under doors, along walls, or in tight spaces
• Bare copper conductors: superior conductivity and signal integrity vs. CCA
• U/FTP shielding: each pair individually foil-wrapped to resist alien crosstalk
• PoE++ ready: supports up to 100W power delivery for modern devices
• Durable PVC jacket: white finish blends with home or office décor
• Gold-plated RJ45 connectors: corrosion-resistant, secure locking tab

In daily use

This 15-meter cable connects high-speed NAS, 10G/25G/40G switches, gaming rigs, and Wi-Fi 6E access points. The flat shape prevents tangling and makes it easy to conceal. Bare copper ensures full PoE++ power without voltage drop, while the foil shielding keeps 40G signals clean even in dense racks. The white jacket is easy to label and identify in complex installations.
