Not much of a discount but a good price on a good cable.
Cat8 is probably more than most people need, but if you want something that can handle up to 2Ghz, might be worth a look.
CamelCamelCamel.
Haha, yeah this is 25Gbps/40Gbps using 2Ghz frequency over the 800 in Cat 7
I still say cat5 😬
Sorry guys - looks like they are all gone now.
perfect for super quick linux iso transferring
Wow. Didnt even know there are cat7 and cat8…
The last ever one will be cat9…
I have this cable. Everything else is good except the cables are not flexible. If you are planning to cabling around corners of your house, it might be difficult.
No CAT8 cable will be flexible like CAT5/6 because of the additional shielding.
They didn't plan for home pushing 40Gbe around clearly. IEEE is chaired by a bunch of casuals
To be honest, there's no point in running Cat 8 in a house as most routers (even Unifi) won't be able to process above 10 Gigabit instead let alone 40 Gbps
Yes I need that cable to share my 100/50 internet more speedily.
:(
Hahah , I wonder who has a 10 or 40Gbps interface at home that crazily rushin to buy this…lol….evenf you put a piece of @^$@^$@^$ people will clean it here ……Also In DCs , above 1G is "often" fibre SFP and not copper….Some OZB are really amazingly funny buying not knowing why buying it……..hahaha
Ey I will buy a hyper car for Hyper cheap bargain on OZB even if i can't drive it more than 110Km/H..
Using 10GB but with the direct attach SFP+ copper cable, as a cheap way to have 10GB speed.
What have you got at home with a built-in SFP+? lol
If you use it internally only not much point unless you ping ponging with your NAS , or you may have a Direct connect or Express route delivered to your door :)
Two used 10GB SFP+ cards with direct attach cable was the cheapest way to have 10GB connection between two computers (or at least was a few years ago). My use case - machine learning competitions and hobby projects, can't easily install more than 4 GPUs in one system due to power usage and number of slots so split to two multi GPU boxes with data on NVME drive read accessed other system. 1GB network was often a bottleneck.
@DmytroP: Distributed compute is a cool subject mate , you could have easily channeled the 1Gbps' btw.
You know your solution better though :)
Do you mean 2 Gbps?Nope. I’ve got no idea until reading this.
