Network cable GOOBAY 55437 Cat6 U/UTP black 50 m RJ-45–RJ-45

GOOBAY 55437 is a 50 m Cat6 U/UTP Ethernet cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends and gold-plated contacts. Built with copper conductors and a double-layer PE jacket, this black cable is designed for Gigabit Ethernet and structured cabling. It provides Cat6 performance for LAN connections, patching and device linking in home, office or server-room environments, and the weather-resistant polyethylene outer layer extends usability for outdoor installations such as gardens, facades and surveillance camera connections.

Advantages

The cable combines Cat6 performance with gold-plated RJ-45 connectors to ensure reliable signal transmission and corrosion resistance at contact points. Copper conductors provide stable electrical characteristics for Gigabit speeds, while the double-layer polyethylene jacket increases mechanical robustness and resistance to UV and weathering. The 50 m length covers medium-distance runs without the need for additional couplers and the black finish integrates unobtrusively in indoor and outdoor settings.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers in LAN and home networks
• Patch cabling in offices and server rooms
• Linking IP surveillance cameras on building facades
• Outdoor temporary or semi-permanent installations in gardens and camping sites

Key specifications

• Length: 50 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Conductor material: Copper (Cu)
• Outer jacket: Double-layer polyethylene (PE), weather- and UV-resistant
• Color: Black

How to use

Strip the cable ends carefully if fitting to custom RJ-45 plugs or use the pre-terminated connectors supplied. Insert the RJ-45 plugs into network devices such as routers, switches, network printers or IP cameras until they click into place. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress; secure with appropriate clips or cable ties for indoor runs and use weatherproof conduits or clips for outdoor routing. Test the connection with a network tester or by verifying link/activity LEDs on connected devices to confirm proper operation.

Usage recommendations

For outdoor installations, mount the cable away from direct heat sources and use UV-resistant clips or conduits for long-term exposure. Avoid prolonged tension on connectors and keep bend radius within manufacturer guidelines to maintain Cat6 performance. For runs longer than 50 m between active devices, consider using network switches or repeaters to preserve Gigabit throughput.
