## Summary description

GOOBAY 51566 is a 3 m network patch cable compliant with Cat6a standard, featuring S/FTP (S‑STP) shielding for reduced crosstalk and improved signal integrity. It has RJ‑45 connectors on both ends with gold‑plated contacts. The cable is suitable for high‑speed Ethernet, server connections, LAN installations and home or office networking.

## Long description

GOOBAY 51566 is a 3 m Cat6a S/FTP (S‑STP) network patch cable with RJ‑45 connectors on both ends. Designed for stable high‑speed Ethernet links, the cable combines individually foil‑shielded twisted pairs with an overall braided shield to reduce crosstalk and preserve signal integrity over short to medium distances. Gold‑plated contacts and high‑quality copper conductors ensure consistent electrical contact and low attenuation for home, office or server-room cabling.
Advantages
The double shielding (foil on each pair plus braid around the bundle) enhances immunity to external electromagnetic interference and minimizes pair‑to‑pair crosstalk, supporting reliable 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance. Gold‑plated contacts improve corrosion resistance and contact stability, while robust jacket material and bend protection reduce the risk of cable damage in regular installations. One end offers a right‑angle RJ‑45 plug for space‑constrained connections and the other a straight RJ‑45 plug with latch protection for secure mating.
Suitable for
10 Gigabit Ethernet links in data centers, server racks and backbone segments
Gigabit and Fast Ethernet connections in offices and homes
LAN patching between switches, patch panels and wall sockets
Power over Ethernet (PoE/PoE+) powered devices such as access points and IP cameras
Key specifications
Category: Cat6a, suitable for 10/100/1000/10000 Mbit/s
Shielding: S/FTP (foil per pair + overall braided shield)
Length: 3 m
Connectors: RJ‑45 to RJ‑45 (one angled, one straight)
Conductors: copper (CU) cores with gold‑plated contacts
Supports: 10 Gigabit Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, Fast Ethernet
Compatibility: suitable for Power over Ethernet (PoE, PoE+)
Colors: white/blue jacket
How to use
Connect the straight RJ‑45 plug to the network device or switch port and the angled RJ‑45 plug to the outlet or equipment in tight spaces as required. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends or tight radii; use the built‑in bend protection and jacket strength to maintain signal quality. For patching, match port speeds and duplex settings on connected devices or allow automatic negotiation.
Usage recommendations
For best performance, avoid running the cable parallel to mains power lines or close to strong EMI sources. Use this Cat6a S/FTP cable for runs within racks, between patch panels and wall sockets, and in installations requiring PoE power delivery. Inspect connectors before plugging and replace the cable if the jacket or connector shows visible damage.
