Tips

For optimal performance, ensure that all components in your network chain (switches, routers, network cards) support Cat 8.1 or higher. Although this cable is backward compatible with lower categories, you will only achieve the maximum speed when all devices are rated for 25/40 Gbit/s. When routing the cable, avoid sharp bends and excessive tension, as this can degrade signal quality. The LSZH jacket is ideal for use in enclosed spaces where fire safety is a concern.
