Patch cable No name Goobay CAT5e 0.25 m U/UTP RJ-45 one 90° angled connector, black

Short Goobay CAT5e patch cable (0.25 m) with U/UTP unshielded construction and gold‑plated RJ‑45 connectors. One connector is 90° angled for use in confined or crowded installations, while the opposite connector is straight. The cable is designed for Ethernet Cat5e networks and supports standard LAN connections between devices such as routers, switches, network sockets and patch panels where a very short link is required.

Advantages

The compact 0.25 m length minimises cable clutter and is useful where only a short connection is needed. A right‑angled RJ‑45 plug allows installation close to walls or behind equipment without bending the cable sharply. Gold‑plated contacts and copper‑clad aluminium conductors provide reliable signal transmission for typical Cat5e applications. The PVC jacket and integrated strain relief protect the cable against mechanical stress; the straight connector includes a latch protection to reduce the risk of latch damage during handling.

Suitable for

• Connecting routers, switches and modems in rack or cabinet layouts with limited space
• Linking wall outlets to patch panels or keystone jacks where short patch cords are required
• Quick, internal device connections behind desks, AV equipment or small enclosures

Key specifications

• Category: Cat5e U/UTP (unshielded)
• Length: 0.25 m
• Connectors: RJ‑45 angled (90°) on one end, RJ‑45 straight on the other
• Conductor type: copper‑clad aluminium (CCA)
• Contacts: gold‑plated
• Data rates: suitable for 10/100/1000 Mbit/s (Gigabit Ethernet at Cat5e specifications)
• Jacket: PVC with integrated bend/strain relief
• Colour: black

How to use

Insert each RJ‑45 plug fully into the corresponding Ethernet port until the latch clicks to establish a secure connection. Use the angled plug where space is limited to avoid excessive bending of the cable. The cable is plug‑and‑play and requires no additional configuration; standard network settings on connected devices determine link speed and duplex. Avoid routing the cable near strong sources of electromagnetic interference for best performance.

Usage recommendations

For stable operation, use this short patch cable for connections within cabinets, behind routers or between closely mounted devices. Do not bend the cable sharply at the connector; allow the strain relief to absorb mechanical stress. For permanent or outdoor installations and for maximum long‑term performance, consider shielded or solid‑conductor cables appropriate to the environment.
