UGREEN Cat 8 Ethernet Cable 5M for Gaming
Product description
This flat Cat 8 ethernet cable of 5 metres combines high throughput and a compact profile for neat home or office wiring. The Cat 8 flat ethernet cable 5m supports very high bandwidth for streaming, gaming and device linking, while its slim form lets it be routed under carpets and along skirting boards without bulk.
Key Points

This cable promises increased transmission capacity, making large file transfers and 4K streaming smoother according to the manufacturer. The flat design bends easily and stores neatly, which helps keep desk and floor runs tidy and less prone to tangling. The braided nylon jacket enhances durability and offers better abrasion resistance than standard PVC, and the cable remains lightweight for carrying in a kit bag. 🧵


Shielding technology in the core reduces electromagnetic interference, so a wired connection stays more stable than typical WiFi in congested environments. The conductor size uses 26AWG copper for reliable signal paths. Consider that very long runs beyond the stated 5 metres will have different performance characteristics, and compatibility with existing infrastructure depends on device ports.

Usage Recommendations
Run the cable along skirting boards or under rugs for a discreet setup, and avoid placing heavy furniture directly on it to preserve the braid and shielding. For console gaming on PS5 or Xbox, place it between the router and the device to reduce latency during online play. For small office or home networks, use it between switches and key workstations to free up wireless bandwidth for mobile clients. 🎮



If you need a temporary connection for events or moving workstations, the cable’s flat profile makes it quick to fold and pack. Keep in mind that while the cable is backwards compatible with Cat 7, Cat6 and older standards, the maximum speeds will depend on the connected equipment and network hardware.
