Pros & Cons

Pros

It fits nicely in my laptop bag.

Cable is heavy and seems like it will be durable. Might be a little less flexible than some thinner cables. Built thicker to handle higher speeds & more durable to last.

Inside has 4 pair of copper wire with s/ftp (screened shielded twisted pair) shielding. The extra shielding on the cat-8 wires makes the cable slightly thicker, but less prone to damage. The ends are injection molded and include gold plated connectors...  Read More

Quality


Shielding and cable ends are very quality.


The gold with the green ends are even quite cool looking.


However, with the 40 gbps and 2000 mhz standards that require cat-8 cable, a few things have changed.


This cable is probably overkill for the short length and lower speeds i am using, but the changes to the standards for the prod...  Read More

Price


It was a decent price as well.

Competitiveness

    As others have discussed cat8 is probably overkill for most people


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Look at it this way the max speed youll get out of the sata iii interface is 6gbs


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Cat8 has a theoretical max speed of 40gbps


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    We will have to start sharing files from nvme ssds at greater than 10gbps network speeds to even push a cat8 cable which would currently be very expensive


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It says it is also backward compatible for cat6 cat5e and cat5

    In addition the connectors are a snagless design and have plastic covering the tabs


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I wanted to replace the cable that the internet company installed and use a higher bandwidth cable to know for sure that no cheap stuff was used
