## Summary description

Short network patch cable GOOBAY 68500, 0.5 m length, Cat5e standard for Fast Ethernet and basic Gigabit connectivity. U/UTP (UTP) unshielded twisted pair construction with RJ-45 plugs on both ends.

## Long description

Network patch cable GOOBAY 68500 Cat5e U/UTP (UTP) 0.5 m in white is a short, prewired Ethernet cable with RJ‑45 connectors on both ends designed for Fast Ethernet and basic Gigabit use. Its unshielded twisted pair (UTP) construction and compact 0.5 m length make it suitable for close-range interconnections between switches, routers, patch panels and networked devices in home and office environments. The cable uses a Cat5e specification that supports speeds up to 10/100/1000 Mbit/s and features an overmoulded slimline strain relief with the length indicated.
Advantages
The GOOBAY Cat5e patch cable provides reliable signal transmission with high-quality inner conductors and gold‑plated contacts for stable connectivity. A robust PVC jacket and bend protection reduce the risk of physical damage, while latch protection on the RJ‑45 plugs prevents accidental snagging or breakage of the clip. The cable is prewired to the EIA/TIA 568B pair sequence to ensure compatibility with standard network hardware.
Suitable for
Connecting switches and routers at short distances
Patch panel to switch or wall outlet to network device links
Home network setups and small office LANs
Temporary or permanent device interconnections where a short cable is required
Key specifications
Cable standard: Cat5e U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair)
Length: 0.5 m
Connectors: RJ‑45 to RJ‑45, straight male on both ends
Maximum supported speeds: 10/100/1000 Mbit/s (Gigabit Ethernet capable)
Conductor type: copper‑clad aluminium (CCA) with gold‑plated contacts
Pair sequence: EIA/TIA 568B wiring standard
Jacket material: PVC with bend protection and overmoulded strain relief
Color: white
How to use
Insert each RJ‑45 plug into the corresponding network port until the latch clicks into place. Use this 0.5 m GOOBAY Cat5e patch cable to connect nearby network equipment such as a switch to a patch panel, a router to a modem, or a wall outlet to a PC. Ensure both ends are seated fully to establish a stable connection. For troubleshooting, reseat the plugs and check device link/activity indicators to confirm data transmission.
Usage recommendations
For best performance, avoid tight bends and repeated sharp kinks; maintain gentle cable curves and do not stretch the cable. Use this short Cat5e patch cable for close-proximity connections and reserve longer, shielded or higher-category cables if you require extended runs, higher interference protection or higher throughput beyond basic Gigabit Ethernet.
