## Long description

GOOBAY CAT 8.1 S/FTP (PiMF) patch cord is a 2 m Ethernet cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends and gold-plated contacts, designed for 40GBase‑T cabling and high‑speed LAN connections. The S/FTP shielding and PiMF (Pairs in Metal Foil) construction reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, while the 99.9% oxygen‑free copper (OFC) AWG 24 conductors and halogen‑free (LSZH) sheath ensure reliable signal transmission and compliance with environments where low smoke and halogen-free materials are required. The black, robust outer jacket and precise RJ-45 plugs make this cable suitable for data centers, server racks, switch interconnections and other high‑performance networking installations requiring Cat8.1 performance.
Advantages
The S/FTP (PiMF) shielding provides strong protection against external interference and internal pair crosstalk, supporting stable, high‑bandwidth data transfer for demanding network applications. Gold‑plated contacts on the RJ‑45 plugs improve corrosion resistance and signal integrity at the connector interface. The 99.9% oxygen‑free copper AWG 24 conductors deliver consistent low‑loss transmission characteristics, while the LSZH cable sheath reduces toxic emissions in case of fire. The 2 m length offers a practical balance between flexibility and reach for rack and desktop installations.
Suitable for
Interconnecting switches, patch panels and servers in data centers and server rooms
High‑performance LAN links requiring Cat8.1 bandwidth
Short runs in structured cabling for offices and workstations
Applications demanding reduced electromagnetic interference and minimal crosstalk

How to use
Plug one RJ‑45 connector into the network port of the switch, router or patch panel and the other connector into the target device or patch port. Ensure connectors seat fully until the latch clicks to secure a reliable link. For optimal performance, avoid sharp bends and excessive tension on the cable; maintain bend radii recommended for shielded Ethernet cables and keep the cable clear of high‑power electrical cables to reduce residual interference. Use standard network testing tools to verify link integrity and speed after installation.
Usage recommendations
For best results in high‑density or high‑speed installations, use this GOOBAY CAT 8.1 patch cord for short interconnects (such as switch-to-patch panel or patch panel-to-server) within racks and cabinets. Pair it with properly grounded shielded components and follow structured cabling practices to preserve Cat8.1 performance.
