Goobay 51545 Cat6 S/FTP Network Cable, 3m, RJ-45, Black

The Goobay 51545 Cat6 S/FTP network cable is a high-performance solution designed for reliable data transmission in home and office environments. Measuring 3 meters in length, this cable features advanced S/FTP shielding, which combines individual pair shielding with an overall braid to effectively minimize electromagnetic interference. With its combination of a straight and a 90-degree angled RJ-45 connector, it offers flexibility for installations where space is limited, ensuring a secure and stable connection for your network devices.

Advantages

This network cable stands out due to its robust construction and high-quality materials, including a copper conductor that ensures optimal signal integrity. The inclusion of a 90-degree angled connector makes it particularly useful for connecting devices in tight spaces, such as behind furniture or in compact server cabinets. Furthermore, the latch protection on the straight connector prevents accidental damage, while the double shielding provides superior protection against external signal noise, resulting in a consistently fast and stable internet connection for demanding applications.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers to routers or network switches
• Home office and professional networking setups
• Installations in confined spaces using the angled connector
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications
• High-speed 10 Gigabit Ethernet environments

This cable may not be suitable for outdoor installations where it would be exposed to direct sunlight, moisture, or extreme temperatures, as it is designed for indoor use. Additionally, if your network setup requires a distance longer than 3 meters, you may need to consider a longer cable to avoid signal degradation or the need for additional hardware.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 3 meters
• Shielding: S/FTP (PiMF)
• Connectors: 1x RJ-45 straight, 1x RJ-45 90° angled
• Contact plating: 1μ gold-plated
• Conductor material: Copper (CU)
• Supported standards: 10/100/1000/10000 Mbit/s, PoE, PoE+

To use this cable, simply insert the RJ-45 connectors into the corresponding ports on your network devices, such as your modem, router, switch, or computer. Ensure that the connector is fully seated until you hear a click, which confirms that the latch is engaged. For the angled connector, orient it toward the device port before inserting to ensure a clean fit without putting unnecessary strain on the cable or the port itself.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required length to ensure 3 meters is sufficient for your setup
• Check if your device ports have enough clearance for the angled connector
• Confirm that your network equipment supports Cat6 standards for optimal performance

For the best performance, avoid bending the cable at sharp angles or placing heavy objects on top of it, as this can damage the internal shielding and conductors over time.
