Smolink Cat 8 Ethernet Cable 15ft, 40Gbps 2000MHz Flat LAN Cable

This Cat 8 Ethernet cable is sturdy and well made. The flat design makes it easy to route neatly along walls or under furniture, and the white color blends in cleanly with most setups. The gold-plated connectors fit tightly and hold firmly in place, providing a solid and consistent connection. It delivers excellent performance with the Eero Max 7 system — fast, stable speeds and no signal drops, even during high-bandwidth use. The S/FTP shielding effectively prevents interference, keeping the connection clean and reliable even when other cables or power cords are nearby. A high-quality, dependable Ethernet cable that performs exactly as promised. Ideal for ensuring maximum network stability and speed.

These are really good and decent cat 8 cable. I will note that the first thing to note is that this is a shielded cable so it is weatherproof for longer durability. These are great for running in and out of the house (although I am not one for running cables outside the house) as it is very easy to flatten out but it is a bit hard to shape this cable how you may want it. I normally just pin the cable against the wall I am running it against. It blends in pretty well with my white wall so I barely notice it much. The cables will work with any Ethernet port from what I can tell whether it is cat8, 7 or 6. Another thing is that this is definitely a good upgrade from the older cat 6 and 5 cables. The cable is very flat and thin so that the cable can be very easy to run behind your computer or against the wall if needed. The cable is relatively long running at fifteen feet so you can be sure you will have more than enough cable to get from your router to your devices in a larger room. My recommendation is to use this to hide your cables against the wall. The reason being is that if you have a white wall, most people will not really notice the cable running along it. I keep it close to the bottom of the wall so it really is not that noticeable and the white wall makes it very hard to see. I normally use this for my firewall to my model router. Again this is a pretty flat cable so you can run it against it and it will not look too bad if the color of the wall is white. There is only one cable but for the length you get, the price is reasonable. You get a decent transfer speed which is great and you do not get much interference. The speed is pretty fast depending on your router/switch/modem. Overall this is a great cable to have and I highly recommend it for anyone wanting to upgrade their Ethernet cable while having the ability to be backwards compatible with cat 6 or 5. This also is weather proof so it has more durability then other cables would.

works well, connects well, good value for the money, good cord length and completely functional for what I needed.

Nice cat 8 cable. Doesn’t fit all Ethernet ports though so may need to downgrade to a cat 6.

Works great but is a little bigger than I thought it would be

High quality fast ship

Works well

Updates 11/19/20 Both cables cat 8 50ft and 3ft cat 8 working weird but it turned out to be my ax 1500 overload. I didn't even download anything big the last few weeks except development tools mx linux update, ide, python libraries,java ide, etc. After reboot it is alright again. Lesson I learned is, i need a better router that could pump out more bandwidth. On my other distro on centos 8, i removed the ip link thinking that something messing it up but losing the ethernet connection. Now i have to reconfigure it again. UPDATES: I actually bought a 50 ft and a 3 ft. Will buy more! Thank you for the nice item. I recently upgraded my Internet service to 400 Mbps 2 days ago. Before that my service was 100 Mbps. It is hard to simulate the pre-400 Mbps service. I didn't keep record (screen captures) and if I did they are somewhere. I like the flat cable because it is easier to setup. I can tape it to the wall and it can go below the door without the worry of ripping it up. Simply amazing. I am hoping it will last and for the price, it really worth it. What I need is to get a 2.5 Gbps LAN card. Look below for the Pro for these cables. 100 Mbps service Wi-Fi With just Wi-Fi, I am mostly between 60 Mbps to 100 Mbps depending on distance. At 5ghz is is faster obviously but with 2.4 ghz sometimes it fell below 60 Mbps or around 20 to 30 Mbps. However, with 2.4 ghz, I am getting a greater distance thus I it is suitable for my IOT devices. I also have AC1200 extender I am using at my garage. Ethernet I was connected to AC1900 extender using cat7 with AC1900 connected to AX1500 through wi-fi. I was consistently getting between 80 Mbps and 110 Mbps. 400 Mbps service Download and Upload speed varies every time you are testing them due to various reasons. Wi-Fi ac1900 extender, 5ghz, wi-fi alone - 106.6 Mbps, 19.5 Mbps ax1500, 5ghz, wi-fi alone - 178.1 Mbps, 19.0 Mbps The day before I was getting above 200 Mbps consistently but today it is 170 Mbps to 180 Mbps. I simply paid for the upgrade service online and waited for the router to reboot itself. The process was around 4 to 5 minutes or so. Cat 8 - Smolink ac1900 extender, 5ghz, cat 7 - 413.9 Mbps, 23.6 Mbps ax1500, 5ghz, cat 8 - 489.4 Mbps, 23.6 Mbps I am planning to get a 2.5 Gbps LAN adapter and at least an AX6000 router (with DDOS protection, WPA3 and other good stuffs) and above. Someday in the future I will upgrade to 940 Mbps service. They said they don't have a contract so you can turn it on and off. With 2.5 Gbps and security features, I could run my web server and other servers with less worry. Now, I need to upgrade my own firewall device using RPI4. Update: 12/1/2021 These cables are still running great. I haven't upgrade my router yet because of the strong signals. However, I might have to upgrade them now since I am planning to add 11 new security cameras and 14 security devices around my house and compounds. I bought them during Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals from Amazon, Woot and Sam's Club. My current router even with the extenders might not able to maintain consistent bandwidth with so many devices.
