UGREEN NW122 70653 3 m Cat 6A U/UTP Ethernet Cable, 10 Gbps

Overview

The UGREEN 70653 is a 3 m Cat 6A network patch cable from the NW122 range, with a round cable only 2.8 mm thick. It links a PC, switch, router or network drive (NAS) at up to 10 Gbps, and the thin, soft jacket makes it easy to route along desk edges, skirting and walls where a standard cable would look bulky. It needs no power, driver or sign-in.

Is it right for you?

• Choose it where a neat, almost invisible cable matters, such as along a desk or behind a wall-mounted TV.
• It is rated for 10 Gbps, so it suits links between equipment with ports faster than gigabit, as well as ordinary gigabit ports, which run at their own speed.
• It is unshielded (U/UTP). Where the cable must run beside power cables or electrical machinery, a shielded cable would suit better.
• It fits RJ45 network ports only.

Key features

• Cat 6A rating of up to 10 Gbps and 500 MHz, so it carries the fastest modes most home and office ports offer.
• Very thin 2.8 mm round profile with a soft black PVC jacket, so it tucks into gaps and bends around corners easily.
• 32 AWG bare pure copper conductors arranged as four twisted pairs, terminated 568B at both ends.
• RJ45 plugs with 24K gold-plated contacts and moulded latch protectors, so the clip survives being pulled through tight spaces.
• Passive cable: no power supply, driver or account.

What else you need

Nothing extra. It works between any two devices with RJ45 network ports, such as a router or switch and a PC, console or NAS.

Before you buy

• The cable is 3 m from plug to plug. Measure the route before ordering.
• It fits RJ45 ports only, not USB-A, USB-C, HDMI, DisplayPort or the smaller RJ11 telephone socket.
• It does not provide internet service, Wi-Fi, IP addresses or routing, and it does not make slower ports, storage or an internet plan run at 10 Gbps.
• It does not guarantee a particular gaming latency, download rate, streaming resolution or file-copy speed; those depend on the equipment at each end.
• No PoE class, outdoor, direct-burial, plenum, riser or in-wall rating is stated for this cable.
