Networking cable GOOBAY 95260 Cat6 U/UTP violet 0.50 m RJ-45–RJ-45

GOOBAY 95260 is a 0.50 m Cat6 U/UTP patch cable with RJ-45 connectors and gold-plated contacts. Designed for 10/100/1000Base-T(X) Ethernet, it supports data transfer up to 1 Gbit/s and is intended for short connections between switches, routers, patch panels and network devices in home or office environments. The cable’s unshielded design and violet jacket make it suitable for tidy, colour-coded installations where a reliable, high-speed link is required over short distances.

Advantages

The GOOBAY Cat6 cable provides solid signal transmission at gigabit speeds thanks to Cat6 specification and high-quality inner conductors. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts ensure corrosion resistance and stable contact. The U/UTP unshielded construction is lightweight and flexible, simplifying routing in racks or cable conduits. A violet outer sheathing enables visual identification in multi-cable installations.

Suitable for

• Short point-to-point connections between network switches and routers
• Patching between patch panels and wall outlets
• Connecting desktop network devices such as PCs, printers and IP phones
• Home and small office gigabit Ethernet links where shielded cabling is not required

Key specifications

• Cable type: Cat6 U/UTP patch cable
• Length: 0.50 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Supported network standard: 10/100/1000Base-T(X)
• Maximum data rate: up to 1 Gbit/s
• Colour: violet

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 plug into the corresponding Ethernet port on your devices until the connector latches audibly. Use the 0.50 m length for close connections in racks, between adjacent patch panel ports, or between a router and a nearby switch. Ensure ports are powered and configured for 10/100/1000Base-T(X) operation if automatic negotiation is not enabled. Avoid sharp bends and excessive tension on the cable to maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

For best performance, use this Cat6 U/UTP cable for short runs up to the supplied length in environments where electromagnetic interference is low. If connections run alongside heavy power lines or are exposed to significant EMI, consider a shielded cable variant. Keep the cable free from kinks and avoid routing through areas with frequent mechanical stress.
