Networking Cable Goobay RJ-45 CAT7 5m

The Goobay RJ-45 CAT7 5m networking cable is a 5-meter S/FTP Ethernet patch cable designed for high-performance wired networks. It features pair-in-metal-foil (PIMF) shielding plus an overall braided outer shield to reduce crosstalk and electromagnetic interference. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts and a slim molded strain relief with length marking support reliable connections and compatibility with patch panels and network devices.

Advantages

This Cat7 cable offers enhanced shielding with individually foil-wrapped pairs and a braided outer shield, delivering improved signal integrity in environments with elevated electromagnetic interference. The 50 µ gold-plated contacts ensure low contact resistance and corrosion resistance for stable data transmission. The molded slim-line strain relief reduces connector stress and includes a length indication for easy identification in crowded cable runs. The cable is tested to 600 MHz, making it suitable for demanding Gigabit and higher-speed Ethernet applications.

Suitable for

• Structured local area networks in homes and offices
• Connecting switches, patch panels and routers in server rooms
• High-bandwidth applications such as streaming, large file transfers and VoIP
• Environments with nearby power lines or electronic equipment that cause interference

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat7 with S/FTP topology (pairs in metal foil + braided outer shield)
• Length: 5 meters
• Contact plating: 50 µ gold-plated RJ-45 contacts
• Pair sequencing: wired according to EIA/TIA 568 standard
• Connector: molded RJ-45 plug with slim-line strain relief and length marking
• Frequency rating: tested up to 600 MHz

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector firmly into the corresponding Ethernet port on your devices such as switches, routers or network cards. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a reliable electrical and mechanical connection. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and high-tension pulls to preserve shielding and internal pair integrity; the molded strain relief reduces stress at the connector but does not replace careful cable handling. Verify link lights on network devices to confirm successful negotiation and data transmission.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, keep cable runs away from large electrical sources and fluorescent lighting to minimize interference. Use the length marking on the strain relief to identify and document connections in patch panels or racks. When installing in permanent structured cabling, avoid excessive bundling and maintain bend radii recommended for twisted-pair cables.
