## Long description

GOOBAY 74355 is a 3 m Cat8.1 network cable with U/FTP (STP) shielding and RJ-45 connectors at both ends. It is designed for high-speed Ethernet links and features gold-plated contacts for reliable signal transfer and corrosion resistance. The cable combines a super-slim profile, extra-short connectors and a soft TPE jacket to reduce cable volume in server cabinets and patch panels while maintaining flexibility and a small bending radius.
Advantages
The slim construction with AWG 32 conductors and an outer diameter of 3.8 mm reduces material volume and improves air circulation in dense installations. U/FTP (STP) shielding and gold-plated RJ-45 contacts minimise crosstalk and ensure stable connections. The low-smoke, halogen-free TPE jacket provides high flexibility and compact bend protection extends service life. The cable supports high transmission bandwidths up to 2 GHz for demanding network applications.
Suitable for
High-speed server cabinet and patch panel connections where space and airflow matter
Data center links between switches, routers and patch panels
Office and home LAN connections requiring 25/40GBASE-T or backward compatibility with lower Ethernet standards
Power over Ethernet (PoE, PoE+, UPoE, 4PPoE) applications and HDBaseT installations

Colour: Black
How to use
Insert the RJ-45 connectors into the appropriate Ethernet ports on switches, routers or network devices until the latch clicks. When routing the cable through server cabinets or along patch panels, take advantage of the extra-short connectors and slim profile to reduce volume and improve airflow. Avoid sharp bends; use the compact bend protection area to guide the cable and maintain the small bending radius recommended for TPE-jacketed cables.
Usage recommendations
For best performance in high-density installations, keep cable runs within standard channel length limits, maintain proper grounding for shielded connections, and avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines. Use the cable where reduced cable volume and improved airflow are priorities, and verify device compatibility for 25/40GBASE-T and PoE power levels.
