Verkkokaapeli Goobay 74158 USB-A RJ-45 Cat6 1,5 m valkoinen

The Goobay 74158 networking cable provides a compact Ethernet solution for USB-A devices that lack an RJ45 port. This 1.5 m Cat6 cable with F/UTP shielding supports data transfer rates up to 1000 Mbit/s and connects via a USB A plug to an RJ-45 connector. Nickel-plated contacts and a white jacket make it durable and visually unobtrusive. The integrated smart chip in the USB A plug enables immediate Ethernet connectivity without additional drivers or separate RJ45-to-USB adapters.

Advantages

The cable delivers Gigabit Ethernet performance over a Cat6 F/UTP construction while remaining compact and easy to route. The built-in smart chip removes the need for separate adapters or driver installation on most systems. Nickel-plated connectors increase corrosion resistance and the 1.5 m length balances reach and tidy cable management.

Suitable for

• Connecting laptops or desktops with USB-A ports to wired networks
• Devices without a built-in RJ45 jack that require stable Gigabit connections
• Temporary or permanent wired setups where compact cabling is preferred

How to use

Insert the USB A plug into an available USB-A port on your device and connect the RJ-45 connector to your Ethernet outlet or switch. The integrated smart chip negotiates the network connection automatically on most operating systems, providing immediate wired network access at up to 1000 Mbit/s. Ensure the cable is not tightly bent near the connectors to maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

For reliable Gigabit performance, use the cable in environments where the run length and interference are within typical office or home conditions. Avoid excessive bending or compression and keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources. If a device requires specific drivers, check the device manufacturer or operating system support for USB-to-Ethernet compatibility.
