## Summary description

GOOBAY 55131 is a 20 m networking cable compliant with Cat8.1 standard, featuring S/FTP (S‑STP) shielding for reduced interference. Both ends have RJ‑45 connectors with gold‑plated contacts for reliable signal transmission. The white cable is suitable for high‑speed LAN and data centre links, 10G/25G/40G environments, and shielded installations requiring improved EMC performance.

## Long description

GOOBAY 55131 is a 20 m Cat8.1 network cable with S/FTP (S‑STP) shielding and RJ‑45 to RJ‑45 connectors. Designed for high-frequency Ethernet links, the cable supports transmission performance up to 2000 MHz (2 GHz) and is suitable for 25/40GBASE‑T applications while remaining backward compatible with lower category installations. Gold‑plated contacts and a shielded RJ‑45 plug with latch protection ensure stable signal transfer and reduced contact corrosion over time.
Advantages
The double-shielded S/FTP design combines individual pair foil shielding with an overall braided mesh to minimise crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference, improving EMC performance in shielded environments. The connector contacts are gold plated to provide reliable contact conductivity and corrosion resistance. A slim anti‑kink sleeve and length marking make installation neater and reduce stress on the cable at the plug, while the white sheath integrates easily into office and data‑centre cabling runs.
Suitable for
High-speed LAN backbones and data centre horizontal or vertical links
25G/40GBASE‑T Ethernet connections and other 10G/25G environments
Shielded installations where improved EMC and reduced interference are required
Connections between switches, servers, patch panels and network appliances
Key specifications

How to use
Connect one RJ‑45 end to the network device (switch, router, server or patch panel) and the other RJ‑45 end to the corresponding port on the connected device. Ensure that connected ports and patch panels are properly grounded when used in shielded installations to maintain EMC performance. Avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling force; use the slim anti‑kink sleeve area at the connector to guide the cable and protect the termination point during routing.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance in 25/40GBASE‑T setups, pair this Cat8.1 cable with compatible shielded ports and maintain proper grounding of the network infrastructure. Keep cable runs within recommended distances for the specific Ethernet standard in use and avoid tight bends or compression near connectors to preserve signal integrity.
