Cat 8 is one step ahead by providing a future proof cable supporting up
to 40GBASE-T over a single cable. It is backwards compatible with
standard Cat 6A.
Cat 8 is terminated with an improvement of the
widely used RJ45 to be able to support the extreme performance that our
cable provides. It ups the performance 4 times from Cat 6A with a
bandwidth of 2000MHz.
Cat 8 is used advantageously in TCP/IP and
UDP application where correct data information is critical, e.g. 4K and
8K video streaming, high quality music streaming, gaming, data centers
and in-building installations.
By upping the performance you are
more likely to have no incorrect data being sent or not being corrected
by applications in time as there is much more bandwidth to work with.
This can be very important to avoid for example video loss in streaming
or avoiding stuttering in music streaming and voice communication.
