Tripp Lite N272-040-WH Cat8 Ftp Ethernet Cable 40 Feet

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE N272-040-WH is a Cat8 shielded FTP Ethernet cable designed for high-density network infrastructure installations. At 40 feet in length, this cable supports demanding enterprise and data center environments where high-speed, low-latency copper connectivity is required. The foiled twisted pair (FTP) shielding reduces electromagnetic interference, making it suitable for runs near power conduits or in electrically noisy environments. Network technicians and structured cabling installers use this cable where Cat8 bandwidth requirements apply.

This cable is appropriate for enterprise network installations, server rooms, and data center horizontal runs requiring high-frequency copper cabling. The 40-foot length suits rack-to-rack or patch panel connections across moderate distances within a single enclosure bay or adjacent equipment rows. It is typically installed by licensed low-voltage contractors or IT infrastructure technicians following TIA-568 structured cabling standards.

Key Features

• Cat8 rated for high-frequency enterprise network applications
• FTP shielded construction reduces EMI and crosstalk
• 40-foot length accommodates intermediate-distance data center runs
• White jacket for visual identification and cable management
• Sold as a single unit for flexible quantity purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or addition for enterprise Cat8 structured cabling systems using standard RJ45 patch panel and switch port terminations.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by low-voltage cabling technicians following TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Ensure all termination points are rated for Cat8 before installation. Avoid sharp bends that exceed the cable minimum bend radius, and keep runs separated from high-voltage conduit where possible to maintain shielding effectiveness.
