Networking cable LogiLink CU0404 RJ-45 Cat6 5 m Black

The LogiLink USB-CAT6-LAN adapter cable provides a direct wired Ethernet connection for devices with a USB-A port but no built-in RJ45 jack. The active cable integrates the required chipset into the USB-A plug, allowing immediate network access at up to 1 Gbit/s without additional drivers. The cable combines Cat6 performance with foil shielding (FTP) and a textile jacket for reduced interference and improved durability. Metal RJ45 plugs with bend protection increase longevity. Note: Not suitable for game consoles.

Advantages

The active USB 3.0 to RJ45 cable delivers up to 1 Gbit/s transfer rate and works without extra drivers on compatible systems. FTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference while the textile outer sheath protects against abrasion. Robust metal connectors with strain relief extend service life. USB-A compatibility includes Windows, macOS and Android devices and is backward compatible with USB 2.0.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, laptops or tablets with USB-A ports to routers, modems or network switches
• Home and office wired internet access where no RJ45 port is available
• Temporary or permanent workstation setups requiring stable 1 Gbit/s connection

How to use

Plug the USB-A connector into an available USB-A port on your PC, laptop or tablet. Connect the RJ45 plug to your router, modem or network switch. The integrated chipset enables immediate network connectivity without installing drivers on supported operating systems; verify system compatibility if your device requires specific drivers. Ensure both ends are securely inserted and avoid sharp bends near the connector to preserve cable integrity.

Recommendations

For best performance, connect directly to a Gigabit-enabled router or switch and avoid routing the cable near strong electromagnetic sources. The cable is intended for data networking only and should not be used with game consoles.
