## Summary description

GOOBAY 74347 is a 2 m networking patch cable complying with the Cat8.1 standard and featuring U/FTP (STP) shielding. Both ends have RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts for reliable signal transfer. The grey cable is intended for high-speed Ethernet connections in data centers, server racks, switches and short-run workplace installations where reduced crosstalk and EMI protection are required.

## Long description

GOOBAY 74347 is a 2 m networking patch cable that complies with the Cat8.1 standard and uses U/FTP (STP) shielding. Both ends feature RJ-45 straight male connectors with gold-plated contacts to ensure reliable signal transfer. The grey, super-slim design with extra-short connectors reduces cable volume in server cabinets and patch panels, improving air circulation and helping to minimise heat build-up in dense installations. The cable is intended for high-speed Ethernet connections in data centres, server racks, switches and short-run workplace installations where reduced crosstalk and electromagnetic interference protection are required.
Advantages
The GOOBAY Cat8.1 cable offers a compact profile with AWG 32 conductors and an outer diameter of approximately 3.8 mm, combining reduced material volume and high flexibility thanks to a soft TPE jacket. U/FTP (STP) shielding around the twisted pairs provides protection against external interference and crosstalk while maintaining a small bending radius. With a transmission bandwidth up to 2 GHz (2000 MHz) and support for 40 Gigabit Ethernet, the cable delivers high data throughput while remaining backwards compatible with legacy Ethernet standards. Integrated compact bend protection at the RJ-45 ends improves mechanical durability for frequent re-patching in racks and panels.
Suitable for
 Data centre patch panels and server rack interconnects where space and airflow are critical
 High-speed links up to 40GBASE-T and backwards-compatible Ethernet connections
 Short horizontal runs in offices or workstations requiring shielded cabling and PoE support
 Switch-to-patch or switch-to-server connections in dense cabling environments

How to use
Connect one RJ-45 end to the network device (switch, server or patch panel) and the other end to the corresponding port. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click to guarantee proper contact with gold-plated pins. Route the cable following rack and patch panel layouts to maintain clear airflow and avoid sharp bends; the slim design and small bending radius allow neat routing in tight spaces. For PoE applications, verify that both the power sourcing equipment and the powered device support the required PoE class.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance, use this Cat8.1 U/FTP cable for short connections within racks and patch panels where high bandwidth and reduced EMI are needed. Avoid exceeding recommended bend radii and keep the cable length appropriate for the link budget; inspect connectors regularly for wear if frequently re-patching.
