-**Category 8 (Cat-8)** ethernet cables ​have a huge difference from the previous versions because ​it can support a frequency of 2 GHz. It is limited to a 30-meter 2-connector channel. Category 8 cables ​also require shielding wire structureThis cable can support ​a speed of 25 Gbps or in some cases 40 Gbps. The looks and physical appearance of cat8 are similar to the previous cables. It can be terminated with RJ-45 or non-RJ-45 connections. ​This cable also comes with backward compatibility. You can also use it with a standard Cat7 connector.+**Category 8 (Cat-8)** ​[[ddsf:​public:​guidebook:​06_append:​glossary:​e:​ethernet]] cables ​different than previous versions because ​they support a frequency of 2 GHz. Cat-8 is limited to a 30-meter 2-connector channel ​and also require ​[[ddsf:​public:​guidebook:​06_append:​glossary:​s:​shielding|shielding]] around the wire structuresCat-8 can support ​speeds ​of 25 Gbps or in some cases 40 Gbps.
