## Summary description

GOOBAY 51556 is a 0.5 m Cat6a networking cable with S/FTP (S‑STP) shielding, designed for high-speed Ethernet connections. It has RJ-45 connectors on both ends with gold-plated contacts for reliable contact and reduced corrosion. The cable supports Cat6a performance for 10 Gigabit Ethernet in short runs and is color-coded black and blue for easy identification in patch panels or workstations.

## Long description

GOOBAY 51556 is a 0.5 m Cat6a S/FTP (S‑STP) patch cable with RJ‑45 connectors on both ends. Designed for short-run high-speed Ethernet links, the cable incorporates S/FTP shielding and gold‑plated contacts to ensure consistent electrical performance and reduced contact corrosion. The black/blue color coding helps with visual identification in patch panels, racks and workstations. It supports Cat6a performance suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over short distances and is intended for reliable, low-loss signal transmission in structured cabling setups.
Advantages
The cable’s S/FTP (screened foil over individually foiled pairs) construction provides enhanced protection against external electromagnetic interference and pair-to-pair crosstalk, helping to maintain signal integrity at higher frequencies. Gold‑plated RJ‑45 contacts offer improved conductivity and resistance to corrosion. The compact 0.5 m length reduces excess cable in dense patch environments and helps keep connections tidy. The dual-color outer jacket enables quick visual identification and organization within mixed cabling installations.
Suitable for
 Short-distance 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections in server rooms and data cabinets
 Patching between switches, patch panels and network devices
 Desk or workstation connections where a short, shielded cable is required
 Environments with potential electromagnetic interference requiring screened cabling
Key specifications
 Category: Cat6a (10 Gigabit Ethernet performance for short runs)
 Shielding: S/FTP — overall screen plus foil around each twisted pair
 Connector type: RJ‑45 to RJ‑45 with gold‑plated contacts
 Length: 0.5 m
 Outer color: Black and blue (color-coded jacket)
 Conductor: high-quality copper conductors (solid/stranded as applicable for patch use)
How to use
Connect one RJ‑45 plug to a network device such as a switch, router or patch panel and the other RJ‑45 plug to the corresponding port on the receiving device. Ensure that connectors are fully inserted until a click is felt to secure the latch. Use the 0.5 m length for short cross‑connections or patching within racks and on desktop setups. When routing, avoid sharp bends and excessive tensile force to preserve shielding and conductor integrity.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance, use this Cat6a S/FTP cable in shielded equipment racks or systems where grounding is present. Avoid running the cable in parallel with high-power AC wiring; keep bend radius larger than the connector diameter and do not exceed recommended pulling forces during installation.
