Goobay CAT 6A Patch Cable U/UTP black 10m 10000 Mbit/s

The Goobay CAT 6A Patch Cable U/UTP black 10m supports high-speed wired network connections up to 10000 Mbit/s over a 10-metre length. It is fitted with RJ-45 plugs with gold-plated contacts for improved conductivity and corrosion resistance. The cable construction uses high-quality inner conductors and a robust outer jacket to maintain signal integrity and mechanical durability in home and small office installations.

Advantages

This CAT 6A patch cable offers increased bandwidth and reduced crosstalk compared with lower-category cables, enabling stable 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections at short to medium distances. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts ensure reliable mating and low contact resistance. The U/UTP (unshielded) design provides a balance of performance and flexibility for typical indoor cabling, while the durable sheath protects the conductors from wear and bending during installation and everyday use.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links within homes, offices, and server closets
• Connecting switches, routers, patch panels and networked devices
• High-bandwidth applications such as streaming, large file transfers and online gaming
• Structured cabling runs where a 10 m cable length is required

Key specifications

• Cable category: CAT 6A (augmented)
• Topology: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pairs, overall unshielded)
• Length: 10 m
• Rated data speed: up to 10000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Connector type: RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Application environment: indoor network cabling

How to use

Plug the RJ-45 connectors firmly into the network ports of your devices such as switches, routers, computers or patch panels. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks to provide a secure connection. Route the cable without tight bends and avoid running it close to sources of strong electromagnetic interference; maintain appropriate bend radius to prevent damage to the internal pairs. For best performance, use within standard Ethernet installation practices and test links after installation with suitable network testers if required.

Usage recommendations

For stable 10 Gbit/s performance, use the cable for typical indoor runs up to 30–50 m where ambient interference is moderate; in environments with high interference or for longer runs, consider shielded cabling or structured cabling with appropriate certification. Store and deploy the cable without kinks and avoid excessive pulling force when connecting.
