Network Cable Goobay CAT 5e Patch Cable RJ-45 Cat5e 3m Black

The Goobay CAT 5e Patch Cable is a 3 m black straight-through network cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. It is designed for 10/100/1000Base-T(X) networks and supports data transfer rates up to 1000 Mbit/s. The cable features F/UTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and a robust sheath with high-quality inner conductors for reliable, stable connections in home and office environments.

Advantages

F/UTP shielding minimizes external interference while the precisely fitted RJ-45 plugs ensure stable contacts. The cable’s construction with quality conductors and a durable outer jacket provides consistent signal transmission at gigabit speeds and reliable mechanical resilience for everyday network use.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, routers and switches within home networks
• Wiring office workstations and network devices
• Patch panel to switch connections in small business networks

How to use

Insert the RJ-45 plugs into the corresponding Ethernet ports of your devices (PC, router, switch or patch panel). Ensure connectors are fully seated until you hear a click to establish a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and pinching; keep it away from power cables where possible to reduce interference.

Recommendations

For best performance, use this CAT 5e cable for gigabit Ethernet within the specified 3 m length and avoid close parallel runs with high-voltage power lines. Inspect connectors periodically and replace the cable if the sheath or plugs show visible damage.
