Network Cable Goobay CAT 8.1 Patch Cord RJ-45 Cat8.1 5m Black

The Goobay CAT 8.1 Patch Cord RJ-45 Cat8.1 5m Black is a high-performance network cable designed for fast, stable data transmission. It features a 99.9% oxygen-free copper (OFC) conductor (AWG 24), S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference, a halogen-free (LSZH) sheath, and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors. The cable supports 40GBase-T applications and is suitable for high-resolution image transmission up to 8K @ 60 Hz and 4K @ 120 Hz.

Advantages

The combination of OFC conductors, S/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ-45 plugs provides low signal loss, improved conductivity and reliable connections. The LSZH outer sheath reduces hazardous fumes in case of fire and the cable’s construction meets requirements for high-speed network environments such as 40GBase-T. Its 5 m length offers flexibility for office or home installations while keeping transmission quality stable.

Suitable for

• High-speed local area networks (40GBase-T)
• Home and office network connections
• High-resolution video transmission (8K @ 60 Hz, 4K @ 120 Hz)
• Patch panels and switch connections

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to your network device (router, switch or NIC) and the other plug to the corresponding port on the target device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click to establish a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress; keep it away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference where possible.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat8.1 patch cord for short runs within racks or between nearby network equipment supporting 40GBase-T. Avoid extreme bending radii and do not exceed recommended installation tension. In environments requiring low smoke and halogen-free materials, the LSZH sheath provides added safety.
