Obviously it will only achieve that specification if hooked up to a category 8 certified wire. Haven’t tested that spec in real life but I can definitely say these are high quality connectors that are super easy to install and I have had no problems using them to send hdmi signal in an HDBT system. **Q: are these comes with pass thrrough connectors?** A: These connectors are NOT pass through. You cut the ethernet wire and there is a little piece that you put the wire into and then you put that piece into the connector and crimp down. These connectors are just like the LINKUP connectors in the way you put the cable inside of them. Linkup makes videos showing you how to assemble an ethernet cable. **Q: Well this work with 26awg? the instructions say 22 - 26awg but the individual packets only have 22 - 24awg listed.** A: RESPONSE FROM MANUFACTURER - CABLE MATTERS: No, this Tool Free Shielded RJ45 Cat8 Field Termination Plug doesn't work with 26AWG cables. It supports 22 AWG to 24 AWG Shielded Cat8 wire with an outside diameter between 7.0 and 8.5mm.
