WENTRONIC Goobay Ultraflexibles Cat 6A Patch Cable U/UTP, white

The WENTRONIC Goobay Ultraflexibles Cat 6A Patch Cable U/UTP in white is a flexible unshielded network cable engineered for high-speed 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections. Designed for use in offices, data closets and home networks, the cable features fine-stranded conductors and a pliable jacket that facilitates routing through tight spaces and around equipment. Its U/UTP construction provides reliable transmission for applications that require up to Cat 6A performance without shielded cabling.

Advantages

The ultraflexible design reduces stress on connectors and simplifies installation in patch panels, switches and behind furniture. As an unshielded Cat 6A cable, it supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet while offering easier handling and bending than stiffer solid-core alternatives. The white jacket provides a discreet appearance in office or domestic environments and helps with visual cable management.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in LAN environments
• Patch panels, switches and routers in server rooms and network cabinets
• Workspace and home network connections where flexibility and tight routing are needed
• Temporary test and measurement setups requiring repeated flexing

When it may not be suitable

This unshielded U/UTP cable is not intended for environments with high electromagnetic interference where shielded cable types would be required to reduce noise. It may also be less suitable for long permanent in-wall runs where solid-core cabling is typically recommended for structured cabling installations.

Key specifications

• Category: Cat 6A, U/UTP (unshielded)
• Performance: Suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Conductor type: Flexible fine-stranded conductors
• Jacket color: White
• Typical use: Patch cable for connecting network devices

How to use

Connect one RJ45-terminated end to a network switch, router or patch panel and the other end to the target network device. Avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling during installation; route the cable following existing cable management channels or using cable ties with gentle loops to preserve flexibility. For testing or temporary setups, the cable can be flexed and re-routed without affecting normal performance when used within recommended bend radii.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm required cable length for your setup and allow extra length for routing and management.
• Assess whether unshielded U/UTP meets site requirements regarding electromagnetic conditions.
• Check connector compatibility and whether factory-terminated RJ45 ends fit your patch panels and devices.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use the cable as a patch lead in confined spaces and patch cabinets, avoid routing near heavy power cabling to minimize potential interference, and maintain gentle bend radii to preserve performance and longevity.
