Patch Cord GOOBAY RJ45 CAT 6A S/FTP (PiMF) 500 MHz, CAT7 cable, yellow, 0.25 m

GOOBAY RJ45 patch cord CAT 6A with S/FTP (PiMF) shielding and 500 MHz bandwidth is built from CAT7 raw cable to provide a short, shielded connection between network devices. This yellow 0.25 m cable features RJ‑45 to RJ‑45 plugs with gold‑plated contacts and a halogen‑free (LSZH) outer sheath, designed for high‑speed LAN and backbone patching where reduced crosstalk and improved shielding are required. The cable supports data rates up to 10 000 Mbit/s and is suitable for connections to servers, switches, patch panels and network cabinets.

Advantages

The S/FTP (PiMF) construction combines foil shielding around each twisted pair with an overall braid to limit electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, improving signal integrity in dense installations. Gold‑plated contacts and high‑quality copper conductors ensure low contact resistance and reliable data transmission. The LSZH outer sheath reduces hazardous emissions in case of fire, and integrated bend and latch protection on the RJ‑45 plug increase mechanical durability for frequent plugging in server rooms or network racks.

Suitable for

• Short patching between switches, patch panels and servers in data centers and network cabinets
• High‑speed LAN connections for workstations, gaming consoles and media devices requiring low latency
• Environments where improved shielding is needed to reduce interference (near power lines or electrical equipment)

How to use

Connect one RJ‑45 plug to the network port of a switch, patch panel or server and the other RJ‑45 plug to the corresponding device port. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks for a secure mechanical and electrical connection. Use this short patch cord for front‑panel interconnections in cabinets, short horizontal jumps between adjacent devices, or to replace damaged short links. For best performance, avoid sharp bends near the connector and keep the cable routed to minimize exposure to strong EMI sources.

Usage recommendations

For optimal signal integrity, use this shielded patch cord in shielded network environments with appropriate grounding of racks and panels. When deploying in dense cabinets, allow some slack to avoid strain on the connector and maintain bend radii recommended for shielded CAT6A/CAT7 cables. Replace if the outer sheath or connector latch shows visible damage.
