Networking cable LogiLink CU0416 RJ-45 Cat6 10 m Black

The LogiLink USB 3.2 Type-C Ethernet cable (C/M to RJ45/M) provides a ready-to-use wired network connection for USB-C devices that lack a built-in RJ45 port. The active cable contains a chipset inside the USB-C connector and supports data transfer speeds up to 1 Gbit/s without requiring additional drivers. Its Cat6 design and 10 m length make it suitable for extended connections to routers, modems or network switches. The cable features foil shielding (FTP) to reduce electromagnetic interference, a textile outer sheath for abrasion resistance, and robust metal plugs with kink protection for long service life. The USB-C plug is compatible with a wide range of notebooks and devices running Windows, macOS and Android, and it also supports Thunderbolt 3 devices such as Apple MacBook and iPad.

Advantages

The active USB-C to RJ45 cable eliminates the need for separate adapters by integrating the Ethernet chipset in the connector, allowing plug-and-play operation at up to 1 Gbit/s. Cat6 standard and S/FTP-style foil shielding provide reliable signal integrity and reduced interference. The 10 m length increases installation flexibility while the textile sheath and nickel-plated metal plugs improve durability and resistance to wear.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Connecting laptops, tablets or smartphones with USB-C to a wired Ethernet network
• Home and small office network setups where a stable 1 Gbit/s connection is needed
• Temporary or semi-permanent connections to routers, modems and network switches over a 10 m run
• Use with Thunderbolt 3–equipped devices such as MacBook and iPad that require wired LAN access

How to use

Insert the USB-C male connector into the USB-C port of your laptop, tablet or smartphone and connect the RJ45 male connector to your router, modem or network switch. The integrated chipset provides immediate Ethernet connectivity without installing additional drivers on most systems. Ensure both ends are firmly seated and avoid sharp bends near the connectors to preserve the kink protection.

Recommendations

For stable performance, route the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources and avoid excessive tension or repeated sharp bends. When using with different operating systems, check device firmware or OS updates if connectivity is not detected automatically.
