| - | **Category 8 (Cat-8)** [[ddsf:private:cookbook: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:private:cookbook:06_append:glossary:s:shielding|shielding]] around the wire structures. Cat-8 can support speeds of 25 Gbps or in some cases 40 Gbps. The looks and physical appearance of cat8 are similar to the previous cables and can be terminated with RJ-45 or non-RJ-45 connections. | + | **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.
