SUPRA CAT8 Flame Retardant Ethernet Cable - Custom Length

 

The SUPRA CAT8 is a sturdy cable providing extreme performance with a bandwidth of 2000MHz. Flame-retardant and double-shielded, it does an excellent job in avoiding lag in audio or video. It is also still backwards-compatible with standard Cat 6A. The custom lengths come with Future Shop custom terminations, made of nickel-plated zinc by Telegärtner.

What SUPRA say

SUPRA Cat 8 is one step ahead by providing a future proof cable supporting up to 40GBASE-T over a single cable. It is backwards compatible with standard Cat 6A. Supra Cat 8 is terminated with an improvement of the widely used RJ45 to be able to support the extreme performance that Supra's  cable provides. It ups the performance 4 times from Cat 6A with a bandwidth of 2000MHz. Supra Cat 8 is used advantageously in TCP/IP and UDP application where correct data information is critical, e.g. 4K and 8K video streaming, high quality music streaming, gaming, data centers and in-building installations. By upping the performance 4 times to 2000MHz you are more likely to have no incorrect data being sent or not being corrected by applications in time as there is much more bandwidth to work with. This can be very important to avoid for example video loss in streaming or avoiding stuttering in music streaming and voice communication. Supra Cat 8 is constructed with double shielding instead of single shielding to best avoid interference and in so data losses than can be critical to applications It is also ideal for Power of Ethernet (PoE) applications as it has larger copper cross-section than Cat 6A, meaning high power and less voltage drops.

Capability characteristics:

Better than Category "8.2" acc. to draft IEC 61156-10, excellent NEXT, low attenuation, excellent screen properties (pair- and overall screen), low Skew bandwidth 2000 MHz.

Applications:

Connecting cable and patch cord for generic cabling systems acc. to ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173 (2nd edition) and for data centre cabling acc. to ISO/IEC 24764 and EN 50173-5 as well TR 11801-99-1. Ideal for all applications of class D up to FA and Class II, Multimedia (TV, Video, Data, Voice) >40 GbE acc. to IEEE 802.3 bq (draft), Cable sharing, VoIP, PoE/PoE+.

Excellent cable
4 Dec 2021
Verified Buyer
I ordered this cable to replace a generic cable from my NAS to switch. I chose Telegartner plugs as these provide a very secure connection. I was pleasantly surprised by the further sound quality increase achieved by adding this cable. It perfectly compliments the Audioquest Carbon running from my switch to streamer.

Excellent service from Futureshop again with next day delivery.

Ordered this on Sunday, cable was produced Monday and with me on Tuesday, excellent service from Future shop.
Cable was purchased to improve the streaming of Netflix and Amazon Prime in my home cinema system.
(I was using just a bog standard cat 5 cable previously.)

This has elevated my viewing enjoyment immensely.
Picture quality now looks like Blu-ray quality from both these video services.
Audio has also improved, with it sounding very natural and life like.

The cable has made a substantial improvement for not too much outlay, with great service from Future Shop.
PS. I recommend the Telegartner connectors, can't say exactly what improvement they bring but they are part of the new cable 'package'.

Got a 13m cable to run from by router to a Paul pang quad network switch. While the cable is great for this length and to connect the router to the switch I found it a bit harsh when connecting the switch to my streamer. The audioquest carbon is a better and reasonably priced cable to use between the switch and streamer with a more relaxed and detailed sound.

Good cable. I have ordered some Ethernet cables else were before, but they where poor quality. This Supra is a real quality one! Although it is not so flexible (and maybe the light-blue colour is not everyones choice) it works really good for my HiFii-Streaming music.

The connectors are really solid. I can highly recommend this cable.

Very balanced
8 Jan 2020
Verified Buyer
I run this cable on my Lumin A1. I have a simple switch on one side and my lumin on the other side. Compared to many other cables I tried, it is very smooth and melodic. Voice has a lot of presence and density. The soundstage is good. Not amazing but good. It is not aggressive like a lot could be but it neither warm. The resolution is not amazing. I balance it on the NAS side with a cat 6, this is a perfect fit I found. All in all, compared with many other cables I tested, it is adopted and will stay on my system.

Can a lan cable change the sound?

I've once tried 3 kinds of cat7 LAN cables to discern the difference that may exist among them and could barely choose one that suits my taste best. But the gap was ignorable, to be frank. LAN cables are, after all, designed to transmit all kinds of digital on-line data, not just audio signal.

But this Supra cat8 entirely changed my preconception. Wow sound got clear and sturdy with more depth and height as if the mains block was upgraded to several hundred bucks ones. Cost-efficiency rate is guaranteed!

The best at the price. So good, I bought another one. These have got to be the best value cables, certainly in their price range, and probably a lot higher. I’ve noticed that large DSD files move faster between my Mac and NAS drive, which is down to the higher bandwidth of the Supra Cat.8 over Cat.7. Futureshop are always a pleasure to buy from, which makes the whole experience an extremely pleasant one!

I bought a 0.5m Supra Cat8 to go between my Etalon Ethernet Isolator and my Devialet amplifier. The cable is extremely well made, with top quality metal shielded plugs. The improvement in sound quality over the cheap Cat7 cable that it replaced was immediately apparent. After giving the cable about six hours use, the sound quality improved even further.
I will be buying some more of these cables as they represent really good value for money.
