Cat 8 Ethernet Cable | Long Internet Cord | High Speed LAN Connection | RJ45 connectors | Use with Cat 5/ Cat 6/ Cat 7 | Optimal for Gaming

I bought the LINKUP Cat 8 cable to use for a hardwired connection to my router and gaming PC. The cable feels very solid, with a thicker jacket and shielding than standard Ethernet cables. Once connected, the link has been rock stable, no random drops or interference. From a performance standpoint, it handles gigabit traffic easily and is overkill ready for higher speeds if you upgrade your hardware in the future. The connectors click firmly into the ports and have proper strain relief so they are not stressing the ends of the cable. The cable is a little stiffer than Cat 5e or 6, which is expected due to the extra shielding. You may want to plan your routing so you are not forcing sharp bends. For anyone who wants a clean, high bandwidth wired link for streaming, gaming, or a home server, this has been an excellent choice.

I updated all my Ethernet cables and notice a huge difference on my internet connection no more lag anymore

I use this for audio so signal clarity is really important. I know, 0 and 1 etc but electrical noise is also a thing. Sometime you just have to use your ears. This cable, solid occ core, is really good. The cable is stiff but Do Not hard bend it, you’ll ruin the smooth outer which is why occ matters to reduce the skinning effect. It comes with measurement paper. At this price point, and if you on a budget, it’s such a competitive product. Highly recommend, get the 22ga, your bass will thank me!

Expensive cables, that work great. One thing I did not anticipate was how long the connectors are.

Fantastic value for what you get .. built like a tank latest generation .. very well shielded fro EMI /RFI each cable comes with a FLUKE certificate I am using them for a high end Audio system .. after a slew of new Cat 8 cables with plastic connectors failed .. these are an excellent step up .. i will be buying the same connectors used in this cable ..sold also on amazon ...to repair some broken cables .. UPDATE Sept 4 2021 Audiophiles this IS the cable you want . My entire system except for the last 2 cables are AudioQuest Carbon .5 M running into my DAC and RooN core after running through 2 GigaFoil V4 filters ..are now this Product .. Speed Improvement and EMI / RFI are reason enough ..but these cables are built to last . The Cable is stiff so tight Bends may be an issue .. it is just an Installation consideration NOT a major issue …the Connectors are absolutely Top notch .. and shielding is truly end to end This is the perfect cable if if YOU do not believe in Audiophile cables .. and are perfect for all cables in the peripheral’s that now surround Digital Streaming

If you need a heavy duty ethernet cable, like a riser cable, this is what you should buy.

good, ​The cable is a bit stiff

This cat cable is used to send and boost clean filtered network from my Panamax MR5100 to a switch hub. I get an extra 10+ gb of internet From the pairing with the hub. I use the non overkill cat8 cables from linkup to send network to my Mac Studio and 2.1 marantz stereo receiver with no issues at all after 10 months of use

This Cat8 cable is made to a really high standard, including the RJ45 connectors. A lot of Cat cables are made of stranded cable to increase flexibility, but where high performance is needed, solid core cables are better. This cable is 22 Awg solid core, which is the largest gauge available, meaning it’s not very flexible and needs space where it’s being used and connected into equipment, but the results are worth it for streaming hi res music, where the Linkup cable transfers the signal and keeps noise out. Lesser cables like a regular Cat6 give a harshness and grain to the sound.

Use it to improve streaming music connection. Why trust your tunes to the dental floss in inferior Ethernet cable just good enough for computer connections?

Funciona perfectamente para conexiones con estándar PoE 802.3bt que son de mayor wattage.

Usato per collegare due switch (D-Link GSC108 e Uptone EtherRegen) in un sistema di streaming audio. Rispetto ad un generico cavo RJ45 cat8 ha apportato un significativo miglioramento della qualità. Confrontato ad un cavo Supra cat8 di prezzo equivalente, si preferisce per una maggiore naturalezza.
