Suited for wired LAN, server racks, switches and professional network installations.

## Long description

Goobay RJ45 Cat6A (500 MHz) patch cable with Cat8.1 S/FTP (S‑STP) raw cable in grey, length 15 m. This network cable combines Cat6A RJ‑45 connectors with a high-performance Cat8.1 shielded twisted pair core to support high-speed Ethernet and 40GBase‑T applications. The cable uses 99.9% oxygen‑free copper (OFC) conductors, AWG 24, and a low-smoke, halogen‑free (LSZH) sheath. Gold‑plated contacts and full shielding reduce interference and ensure a stable connection for wired LANs, server racks, switches and professional network installations.
Advantages
The construction pairs Cat6A RJ‑45 connectors with a Cat8.1 S/FTP cable to provide a combination of connector compatibility and enhanced shielding performance. Gold‑plated contacts improve contact reliability and corrosion resistance while 99.9% OFC conductors ensure low signal loss. Full S/FTP shielding and LSZH sheath reduce electromagnetic interference and meet safety requirements for installations in enclosed or public spaces. The 15 m length supports flexible routing in racks or between network equipment without the need for additional couplers.
Suitable for
 Wired LAN connections in offices and homes
 Server racks and data centres requiring shielded cabling
 Switch-to-switch and switch-to-server connections supporting 40GBase‑T
 Professional network installations demanding low interference and high throughput
Key specifications
 Cable category: Cat8.1 S/FTP (S‑STP) raw cable combined with Cat6A RJ‑45 connectors
 Frequency rating: 500 MHz (Cat6A performance at connector level)
 Conductor: 99.9% oxygen‑free copper (OFC), AWG 24
 Shielding: S/FTP — overall braid shield plus individually shielded twisted pairs
 Contacts: Gold‑plated RJ‑45 contacts for corrosion resistance
 Sheath: Low‑smoke, halogen‑free (LSZH)
 Length: 15 m
 Colour: Grey
 Supported technologies: 40GBase‑T, high‑speed Ethernet and high‑resolution video transmission
How to use
Connect each RJ‑45 plug to the respective network ports on switches, routers, servers or workstations. Ensure both ends are fully inserted until the plug clicks to secure mechanical and electrical contact. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference; maintain appropriate bend radius and avoid crushing. For installations in server racks, use cable management accessories to prevent strain on connectors and to keep airflow unobstructed.
Usage recommendations
Use this patch cable for shielded links in environments with potential EMI or where higher throughput is required. For full Cat8 performance end‑to‑end, use compatible Cat8 components; however, the Cat6A RJ‑45 connectors and Cat8.1 core provide improved shielding and signal integrity for demanding 10G and 40GBase‑T links. Inspect connectors for damage before installation and replace if the locking tab or plug housing is compromised.
