Goobay Cable Gender Changer USB A RJ-45 Black Silver 7.5m

The Goobay Cable Gender Changer USB A RJ-45 Black Silver 7.5m (model 70693) provides a compact Ethernet solution for USB-A devices that lack a built-in RJ45 port. The cable combines a USB-A plug with an RJ-45 connector and includes a smart chip in the USB plug so Ethernet access is available immediately without requiring additional drivers. Durable nickel-plated contacts ensure reliable signal transfer over the 7.5 m length.

Advantages

The integrated smart chip in the USB-A plug eliminates the need for a separate RJ45-to-USB-A adapter and simplifies setup by enabling plug-and-play Ethernet connectivity. Nickel-plated contacts improve corrosion resistance and maintain stable connections, while the 7.5 m length offers flexible placement of devices relative to wired network ports. The black and silver design fits standard office and home equipment.

Suitable for

• Connecting USB-A devices to a wired Ethernet network
• Extending network reach for laptops, desktops, or media players without RJ45 ports
• Temporary or semi-permanent installations in offices and homes

How to use

Plug the USB-A end of the cable into the USB-A port of your device and insert the RJ-45 connector into the network port or wall jack. The built-in smart chip handles the interface conversion, so the cable should provide immediate Ethernet connectivity without installing drivers on most systems. Position the cable to avoid sharp bends and secure it to prevent strain at the connector ends.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, use with network equipment that supports standard Ethernet speeds and avoid running the cable near large sources of electromagnetic interference. Inspect nickel-plated contacts periodically and replace the cable if any physical damage or intermittent connectivity occurs.
