## Long description

The Goobay 74228 is a 15 m Cat6a U/UTP networking cable with RJ-45 connectors and gold-plated contacts. Its super-slim design with extra-short connectors reduces cable volume in server cabinets and patch panels, improving air circulation and limiting heat buildup compared with conventional cabling. The grey TPE jacket and slim copper conductors provide flexibility and material efficiency suitable for home and office networks, supporting reliable high-speed data transmission.
Advantages
The cable’s Cat6a specification and U/UTP construction support 10/100/1000Base-T(X) network speeds while minimising interference. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors enhance contact reliability and corrosion resistance. The slim profile and short connector housing save space in dense installations and improve ventilation in racks and patch panels. A flexible TPE jacket allows easier routing and installation in confined spaces.
Suitable for
Wiring desktop PCs, switches and routers in offices
Home network connections for high-speed internet
Patch panels and rack installations where space and airflow matter
Temporary or permanent horizontal cabling runs up to 15 m

How to use
Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network device (PC, switch, router) and the other plug to the corresponding port or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks.

For rack or patch panel installations, use the reduced connector length to improve cable management and airflow.
Usage recommendations
For best performance, avoid running this U/UTP cable parallel to power lines and keep runs within 15 m. Use appropriate cable management in racks and patch panels to maintain airflow and reduce strain on connectors.
