FAQs
What is the difference between 8Ware CAT8 cables and cheaper CCA alternatives?
8Ware CAT8 cables feature full copper core construction, which complies with Australian standards and provides superior signal strength. CCA (Copper Clad Aluminium) cables are cheaper but do not meet Australian regulations and may compromise network performance and safety.
What speeds does the 8Ware CAT8 0.5m cable support?
This cable supports network speeds of 10Mbps, 100Mbps, 1000Mbps (1Gbps), and up to 10Gbps, making it suitable for modern high-speed networks.
Is the 0.5m length suitable for my network setup?
The 0.5m (50cm) length is ideal for short-run connections, such as connecting a computer directly to a nearby switch, router or modem. For longer distances, 8Ware offers extended lengths.
What does 'snagless' mean and why does it matter?
Snagless connectors have a reinforced design that prevents the clip from catching and breaking during insertion or removal. This ensures reliable connections and extends the cable's lifespan.
Can I use this cable in office and data centre environments?
Yes, the full copper construction, robust jacket and superior signal integrity make this cable suitable for office networks, data centres and other professional environments.
What is the warranty coverage?
The 8Ware CAT8 Cable is backed by a 12-month manufacturer warranty.
