Goobay 74394 USB 3.0 Type A to RJ45 Cable 1.5m Black Silver

The Goobay 74394 USB 3.0 Type A to RJ45 cable (1.5 m) provides a compact Ethernet solution for laptops, tablets or other USB-A devices that lack a built-in RJ45 port. The cable combines a USB 3.0 Type A connector with an RJ45 connector and includes a smart chip in the USB plug so the Ethernet connection is available immediately without additional adapters or drivers. Nickel-plated connectors and a 1.5 m length support reliable wired network connections and durable use.

Advantages

This cable enables a direct wired Ethernet connection via a USB-A port, offering stable network performance and higher data reliability compared with wireless connections. The built-in smart chip eliminates the need for a separate RJ45-to-USB adapter and reduces setup complexity. USB 3.0 support allows for fast data transfer rates, while nickel-plated connectors increase corrosion resistance and long-term durability.

Suitable for

• Connecting a laptop or tablet with a USB-A port to a router, modem or network switch

Recommendations

For best performance, use a USB 3.0 port on your device and avoid heavy bending of the cable near the connectors. Keep the connectors clean and store the cable coiled without sharp kinks. If your operating system requires a driver update, follow the device manufacturer's instructions to install the appropriate driver.
