Tripp Lite N272-F07-WH Cat8 Sstp Patch Cable 7 Feet White

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE N272-F07-WH is a shielded Cat8 patch cable designed for high-density structured cabling installations in enterprise and data center environments. Built to the Cat8 specification, this cable supports the high-bandwidth demands of modern switching and server infrastructure. The single-mode SSTP (Screened Shielded Twisted Pair) construction provides robust EMI rejection, making it well suited for runs near power conduits or in electrically noisy equipment rooms. At 7 feet in length, it is sized for short rack-to-rack or patch panel-to-switch connections. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors are the typical installers.

This patch cable is intended for use in enterprise network environments where Cat8 performance is required. Typical applications include connecting top-of-rack switches to patch panels, linking servers to TOR switching equipment, and supporting 25GBase-T or 40GBase-T network segments. The white jacket aids in color-coded cable management schemes common in structured cabling deployments. It ships as a single cable per unit.

Key Features

• Cat8 rated for high-bandwidth enterprise and data center cabling
• SSTP shielding construction reduces EMI and crosstalk interference
• 7-foot length suited for short intra-rack and patch panel connections
• White jacket supports color-coded cable management
• Single cable per package for flexible quantity ordering

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard patch cable for Cat8-compatible patch panels, switches, and network interface equipment in enterprise structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage cabling contractors or network technicians following ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Ensure patch panel and switch ports are de-energized or set to a safe state before seating or removing connectors in live environments. Avoid sharp bends below the minimum bend radius of the cable jacket to preserve shielding integrity. Proper grounding of SSTP shielding at termination points is required for full EMI protection.
