Networking cable Goobay 93749 RJ-45 Cat6a 2m

The Goobay 93749 RJ-45 Cat6a 2m networking cable is a 2-meter Cat6a patch cable designed for reliable high-speed data transmission in home and office networks. The cable uses S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and maintain signal integrity over longer runs. Both ends are fitted with RJ-45 connectors plated with gold for improved conductivity and corrosion resistance. The cable supports 10GBase-T performance for Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications and is suitable for structured cabling, direct device connections, and network equipment links.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding minimizes crosstalk and external interference, resulting in a more stable connection for demanding applications. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure consistent contact quality and long-term durability. The Cat6a specification and 10GBase-T compatibility enable higher bandwidth and lower attenuation compared with lower-category cables. The 2 m length offers convenient reach for typical desk-to-switch or patch panel connections without excess cable slack.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, switches and routers within offices or home networks
• High-bandwidth applications such as 4K/8K streaming and online gaming
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in short-run installations
• Patch panel and patch bay connections in structured cabling

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Cabling technology: 10GBase-T
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually shielded pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Connector plating: Gold-plated contacts
• Cable length: 2 m

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network port on your devices until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Use the cable to link computers, switches, routers or patch panels; ensure ports support the intended network speed for optimal performance. Avoid tight bends and excessive pulling on the cable during installation to preserve internal conductors and shielding. For temporary setups, route the cable along furniture edges or through cable organizers to keep work areas tidy.

Usage recommendations

For best results, pair the Cat6a cable with compatible Cat6a or higher-rated network equipment and maintain recommended bend radius to prevent performance degradation. Keep the cable away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference (large motors, unshielded power lines) to preserve signal quality.
