Cable adapter GOOBAY TAE-F to RJ-45, black — TAE-F to 8P8C (RJ-45) connection

The GOOBAY TAE-F to RJ-45 adapter in black provides a simple physical conversion between TAE-F telephone wall sockets and devices or cables with an 8P8C (commonly called RJ-45) interface. One end of the adapter is a TAE-F male plug designed to fit standard German TAE telephone outlets; the other end is an RJ-45 female socket with an 8-pin assignment using a 2-core wiring mapping. The adapter is unshielded and housed in robust plastic to ensure reliable mechanical connection and low contact resistance during typical telephone or telecom setups.

Advantages

This adapter supports direct connection of routers or other network devices that require an RJ-45 interface to TAE-F wall sockets, enabling reuse of existing wiring without modifying wall plates. Its standardized, precisely fitting connectors provide stable contact and minimal transmission resistance. The compact plastic housing offers durability for repeated insertion and removal while keeping the adapter lightweight and easy to install.

Suitable for

• Connecting a FRITZ!Box or similar router to a TAE-F telephone wall socket
• Adapting telephone wall outlets for equipment with RJ-45 sockets in home or small office telecom setups
• Temporary or permanent physical conversion between TAE-F and 8P8C wiring standards

Key specifications

• Connector A: TAE-F male
• Connector B: RJ-45 (8P8C) female with 8-pin assignment and 2-core wiring
• Wiring type: 2-core (8P2C assignment within an 8P8C housing)
• Shielding: unshielded
• Housing material: robust plastic
• Colour: black

How to use

Insert the TAE-F male plug into the TAE-F telephone wall socket until it clicks into place. Plug an RJ-45 terminated cable or device into the RJ-45 female socket on the adapter. Ensure both connections are firm and check device settings for any required line configuration. No additional tools are required for installation; the adapter is designed for straightforward manual connection and disconnection.

Usage recommendations

Use the adapter for voice and basic telephony connections and for equipment explicitly compatible with 2-core wiring over an RJ-45 socket. Avoid exposing the adapter to moisture or extreme mechanical stress and disconnect before performing any wiring changes to the wall socket. For shielded cabling environments or where electromagnetic interference is a concern, consider using appropriately shielded adapters and cabling.
