Patch Cable GOOBAY Cat 6a U/UTP, 1 m, black

The GOOBAY Cat 6a U/UTP patch cable, 1 m in black, is a short, flexible network lead designed to meet Cat 6a performance for Ethernet connections. It supports high-speed data transmission required for modern local area networks and is intended for use where unshielded twisted-pair cable is sufficient. The compact 1 m length makes it suitable for patching between equipment in racks, on desks or in tight spaces without excess cabling.

Advantages

This Cat 6a cable provides performance up to the Cat 6a standard in an unshielded U/UTP design, offering a balance of data throughput and cost-effectiveness for typical office and home network environments. Its 1 m length reduces cable clutter and improves airflow in server racks. The black jacket gives a neutral appearance that blends with most installations, while flexible insulation and reliable connectors enable straightforward, low-resistance connections to patch panels, switches and network devices.

Suitable for

• Patching between switches and patch panels in network racks
• Short connections between desktop devices and wall outlets or switches
• Home networking where shielded cable is unnecessary
• Office workstations, small server cabinets and media devices

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat 6a (performance for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over suitable infrastructure)
• Construction: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair, overall unshielded)
• Length: 1 m
• Color: black
• Connector type: RJ45 to RJ45
• Typical applications: horizontal cabling, patching, short interconnects

How to use

Insert RJ45 connectors into the network ports of the devices to be connected, ensuring each connector clicks into place. Use the 1 m cable to create a direct link between a switch and a patch panel, between a wall outlet and a desktop device, or between closely spaced networking components. Avoid excessive bending at the connector ends and keep the cable run free from sharp edges or strong electromagnetic interference sources to maintain signal integrity.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat 6a U/UTP cable within a structured cabling system rated for Cat 6a or higher. Keep cable runs short and avoid routing alongside high-power electrical lines; if environments contain significant electromagnetic interference, consider using shielded cabling instead.
