I am specifically looking for a wider plate with one port. Thank you** A: The plates and panels are rated for up to cat-7. With the cat-8 jacks, you just have to work them in. **Q: Will these fit side by side horizontally and vertically in a Cable Matters wall plates such as the 6 position 180085x10 or 3 position 180083x10?** A: I'm using them in 2 position plates at the moment, but when I checked against my 6 position plates it looks like it should work. **Q: If i run a cat 8 eth. cable do i need a cat8 plug or can i just use a rj45 connection?** A: Cat 8 refers to the data transmission quality of the cable and its male ends(plugs) and the quality of the female jack. I am not aware of any Ethernet connection type besides RJ-45 for Cat 8. As along as cable and jack are listed/rated as Cat 8 you will get optimum data transmission (i.e. speed). Any Ethernet cable and mating jacks that are RJ-45 configured will be mechanically compatible. For example, mixing Cat 5 with Cat 8 may lower the maximum data transmission speed below Cat 8. **Q: Are these compatible with cat 7a 23awg cable without the loss of mhz?** A: It's rated for Cat which is 1000mhz , I'm not exactly sure on how to test frequency of copper . I'd say do your research . There are a few sites to look at . One of which i recommend is FS.com I got my Cat8 Stranded Patch Cable there to use with my Cat7a Soild Cable . ## Frequently Bought Together - Cable Matters [UL Listed] 5-Pack 40Gbps Shielded RJ45 Cat 8, Cat8 Keystone Jack for Patch Panel, Wall Plate - Cable Matters Easy Crimp Tool for Cable Matters Cat8 (Cat 8) Shielded Metal Keystone Jacks --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/61754530-ul-listed-5-pack-40gbps-shielded-rj45-cat-8-cat8](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/61754530-ul-listed-5-pack-40gbps-shielded-rj45-cat-8-cat8) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-06-18*
