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.

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

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!

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

A quality well designed cable for the required application.

Replaced generic cat 6 on direct from wall network connection to remote synology server. Running balanced Equitech power and all stealth audio dream star ground so already noise none existent so I wasn’t expecting much. Huge surprise in the additional reduction in noise floor.
