Our products were sent to Germany for GHMT Type Approval and approved to meet Cat 8 standard (ISO/IEC 11801-1 Ed.1.0 (2017-11). Later this year (2018), we will start proving Fluke VSX-8000 Cat 8 Channel certified data cables to our Amazon customers. We don’t have Cat8 patch cords yet, as The Fluke has not made the adapters to certify Cat8 patch cord. We hope this answered your question. **Q: Will this connector work on cat8.2 cable?** A: Yes. It supports all current and future Cat8 with up to 22AWG. Be aware that many advertised Cat8.2 cables failed to meet the standard in our lab test. Please make sure the factory has certificate from GHMT or other testing facilities. **Q: Dear ma''am/sir, do you have faceplatel/ wallplate 86mm 1 port fit with linkup cat8 keystone jack. sincerely, khalid** A: If I read your question correctly, any keystone Jack by Linkup will fit keystone faceplates is any size. I do use keystone faceplates and the Linkup Jack fits perfectly. **Q: How long is the assembled plug?** A: An assembled plug is approximately 66mm long, but keep in mind that the cable used is very stiff and requires about 80mm total clearance between the face of the jack and any obstacles [by the way, I think I posted an image with my review that shows a close-quarters installation to give everyone an idea of the clearances that I'm referring]. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very high quality for streaming *by A***R on 2 June 2024* 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. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An "audiophile" review *by G***X on 14 April 2020* I have a decent home network (pfSense, Unifi switches etc) but this review will not focus on that.This cable is not used in my main network but to connect a couple of key audiophile / videophile components to a dedicated Melco switch. We are talking Oppo 203, dCS Rossini etc.It's an over-engineered cable with 22AWG OFC copper, some the most impressive connectors I have seen to date and, best in class screening and, to cut a long story short, a sound to die for.I know plenty of people don't believe in network cables - bits are just bits after all - but the demonstration is simple. Pay 30£, not hundreds or thousand, wait for the delivery man to knock on your door, sit back and enjoy the difference.I have the Audioquest Diamond, the Meizu Opal and plenty of other "audiophile" cables. This is on par with the very best for a fraction of the price.I am not going to say more. It's ridiculously cheap by audiophile standards, connect your streamer or your TV using this cable. Don't argue, just try one. Hear / see the difference. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good tool *by C***N on 13 November 2024* Closed the keystones down tight. Worked for me. ## Frequently Bought Together - LINKUP - Easy Press Jack Tool for LINKUP Cat8 / Cat6A RJ45 Field Termination | Ethernet LAN Network | for LINKUP Cat8 Keystone Jack Connectors (KS-TLC8S-XX) - Cable Matters 6-Pack Tool Free Shielded RJ45 Cat 8, Cat8 Field Termination Plug, Cat8 Connector, Cat8 Plug - Cable Matters All-In-One Modular Ethernet Crimping Tool Cat 8 (Cat5 Cat6 Cat7 Cat8 Crimping Tool) for Shielded Pass-Through Connectors --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/164471989-linkup-cat8-keystone-easy-press-tool](https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/164471989-linkup-cat8-keystone-easy-press-tool) --- *Product available on Desertcart Panama* *Store origin: PA* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
