Comparing CAT8 Keystone Jacks with CAT6A: Which is Better for Your Network?

When choosing between CAT8 keystone jacks and CAT6A keystone jacks, consider speed and distance. CAT8 supports speeds up to 25-40Gbps but only for short distances (up to 30 meters), ideal for data centers. CAT6A offers speeds up to 10Gbps over longer distances (up to 100 meters), making it more suitable for typical office and home networks.
