Goobay 51540 Cat6a U/UTP Network Cable, 10 m, RJ-45, White

The Goobay 51540 Cat6a U/UTP network cable is a high-performance solution designed for reliable data transmission in both home and professional office environments. With a length of 10 meters, this cable provides the necessary reach to connect network components such as computers, routers, and switches, ensuring a stable and consistent connection for your local area network.

Advantages

This network cable features a practical design with one straight and one angled RJ-45 connector, making it an excellent choice for installations where space is limited or where cables need to be routed along walls or behind furniture. The inclusion of gold-plated contacts enhances signal quality and durability, while the integrated latch protection prevents accidental disconnection and damage to the connector tabs. Furthermore, the cable supports Power over Ethernet (PoE/PoE+), allowing for versatile use with compatible network devices that require power delivery through the data line.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers to routers or modems
• Home office and professional network setups
• Devices requiring Power over Ethernet (PoE/PoE+)
• Tight spaces where an angled connector is necessary

This cable may not be suitable for industrial environments with high levels of electromagnetic interference, as it is an unshielded (U/UTP) cable. It is also not intended for outdoor use or installations requiring long-term exposure to direct sunlight or moisture.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 10 m
• Cable standard: Cat6a
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded)
• Connectors: 2 x RJ-45 (one straight, one angled)
• Contacts: Gold-plated
• Color: White
• Compatibility: PoE/PoE+

To use this cable, simply insert the RJ-45 connectors into the corresponding network ports on your devices until you hear a click. The plug-and-play design ensures that no additional configuration is required for the connection to be established. Ensure that the angled connector is oriented correctly to avoid putting unnecessary strain on the port or the cable itself.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required length for your specific setup
• Check if your network environment requires shielded (FTP/STP) cables
• Ensure the angled connector orientation fits your device port layout

For optimal performance, avoid bending the cable at sharp angles or placing heavy objects on top of it, as this can damage the internal conductors and degrade signal quality over time.
