GOOBAY networking cable Cat6 U/UTP RJ-45 to RJ-45 0.15 m Black

GOOBAY networking cable Cat6 U/UTP RJ-45 to RJ-45 0.15 m Black is a slim Cat6 patch cable designed for short Ethernet connections between devices. The unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) construction and RJ-45 connectors at both ends provide a standard Cat6 link for fast local network patching in home and office environments. With a 0.15 m length and compact diameter, the cable is intended for tidy cable management where space is limited, such as behind patch panels, switches, or baseboards.

Advantages

The cable’s low bending radius and extreme flexibility allow installation in confined spaces and easy routing along skirting boards or inside patch panels without adding bulk. A small overall diameter reduces clutter and improves airflow around network devices. Gold-plated contact pins ensure reliable contact and corrosion resistance, while the short connector with latch protection secures the connection. The construction supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications within the Cat6 specification.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between switches, routers and patch panels
• Connecting a laptop or desktop to a nearby network port or switch
• Installations where space behind equipment is limited or cable routing must be discreet
• Tidy cabling in home offices, server cabinets, and workplace desks

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6 U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair)
• Length: 0.15 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 male to RJ-45 male (short connector with latch protection)
• Cable diameter: approx. 3.6 mm
• Contact plating: 3 µm gold-plated pins
• Flexibility: low bending radius, high flexibility for confined spaces
• Color: black
• Supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) within Cat6 capabilities

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet ports on the devices you want to connect, for example between a switch and a router or from a wall outlet to a laptop docking station. Ensure the connectors click into place via the latch protection. Route the slim cable along desired paths, using cable ties or guides if needed to maintain a tidy installation. For PoE applications, confirm that the connected devices and power sourcing equipment support the required PoE standard.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid kinking the cable and respect gentle bends consistent with its low bending radius. Keep the cable clear of sharp edges and high-heat sources. Use the short length for immediate device-to-device patching rather than long-distance runs; for longer connections select an appropriately rated Cat6 cable.
