Networking cable LogiLink CU0412 RJ-45 Cat6 2 m Black

The LogiLink USB 3.2 Type-C Ethernet cable (CU0412) provides a direct wired network connection for devices with USB-C ports but no built-in RJ45 socket. This active cable includes a chipset integrated into the USB-C connector, enabling a plug-and-play Gigabit Ethernet connection up to 1 Gbps without additional drivers. The cable is 2 m long, has foil-shielded (FTP) Cat6 wiring and robust metal connectors with kink protection. It is compatible with Windows, macOS and Android devices and supports Thunderbolt 3 notebooks and tablets. Note: not suitable for game consoles.

Advantages

The active USB-C to RJ45 cable eliminates the need for separate adapters by integrating the network interface into the connector and delivers stable wired speeds up to 1 Gbit/s. Foil shielding (FTP) reduces electromagnetic interference while the textile outer sheath improves abrasion resistance and handling. Metal, nickel-plated RJ45 contacts and reinforced plugs provide durability and secure connections. The 2 m length offers flexible placement between device and network equipment.

Suitable for

• Connecting laptops, tablets and smartphones with USB-C to a router, modem or network switch
• Users who need a reliable wired 1 Gbps connection for work or media streaming
• Thunderbolt 3 devices such as MacBook and iPad that require Ethernet access

For best performance, use with Gigabit-capable network equipment.

Recommendations

For optimal throughput, connect to a Gigabit-enabled port on your router or switch and avoid routing the cable near strong electromagnetic sources. Do not use the cable with game consoles, as it is not designed for those systems.
