## Summary description

GOOBAY CAT 8.1 patch cord, S/FTP (PiMF) shielding, 1 m length in blue. Twin RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts; supports Cat8.1 standard and data rates up to 40,000 Mbit/s. Suitable for high-speed LAN, data center cross-connections, server racks and backbone links where shielded, high-bandwidth copper cabling is required.

## Long description

GOOBAY CAT 8.1 S/FTP (PiMF) patch cable, 1 m in blue, is a shielded Ethernet cable designed for demanding high-speed network connections. The cable features twin RJ-45 plugs with gold-plated contacts and supports Cat 8.1 performance with data rates up to 40 Gbit/s and a transmission bandwidth up to 2 GHz. Constructed with individually foil-shielded twisted pairs and an overall braid, this S/FTP design reduces electromagnetic interference for stable transmission in data centers, server racks and high-performance LAN setups.
Advantages
The shielded PiMF (pairs in metal foil) structure and additional braid provide strong protection against crosstalk and external interference, ensuring consistent throughput at multi-gigabit speeds. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts and a robust cable sheath improve contact reliability and mechanical durability. Backward compatibility with lower Ethernet standards and support for Power over Ethernet (PoE) make the cable versatile for various network devices.
Suitable for
 Data center cross-connects and backbone links
 Server racks and switch-to-switch connections
 High-bandwidth LAN installations and backbone cabling
 High-resolution video transmission (8K @ 60 Hz, 4K @ 120 Hz)
 Devices requiring PoE power delivery (IP cameras, access points, VoIP phones)
Key specifications
 Cable category: Cat 8.1
 Shielding: S/FTP (individually foil-shielded pairs + overall braid)
 Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, straight male
 Data rate: up to 40 Gbit/s
 Bandwidth: up to 2 GHz (2000 MHz)
 Length: 1 metre
 Contact plating: gold-plated contacts (50 µ)
 Colour: blue
 PoE support: compatible with PoE, PoE+, UPoE, 4PPoE
How to use
Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network device or switch port and the other plug to the target device or port. Ensure both ends are fully inserted until the locking tab clicks into place. Use the cable for short runs such as patch panels, server-to-switch links or switch-to-switch connections where shielded, high-bandwidth copper cabling is required. Verify that connected equipment supports Cat 8.1 or the intended multi-gigabit speed; the cable remains backward compatible with lower Ethernet standards.
Usage recommendations
For optimal shielding performance, terminate both ends of the link with compatible shielded connectors and ensure proper grounding of connected networking equipment. Avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling force; maintain the manufacturer’s recommended bend radius. Use this cable for short, high-speed links up to typical data center or rack distances to achieve full 40 Gbit/s capability.
