DIGITUS patch kabel - CAT6 - S/FTP - Snagless - Cu - 5m - črn

The DIGITUS Network Cable CAT 6 S/FTP RJ-45, 5 m, black is a Category 6 patch cord designed for high-speed data transmission in structured networks. Manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 6 standards, the cable supports performance up to 250 MHz and meets channel specification requirements. It uses copper conductors and S/FTP shielding to reduce interference and is PoE+ ready.

Advantages

The cable features an LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath for improved fire behaviour and low smoke emissions. Transparent red coloured RJ-45 plugs with metal shielding allow easy identification of Category 6 cables and provide additional connector shielding. Each patch cord has a moulded boot with kink protection, strain relief and a latch protection to prevent the latching lever from breaking. The S/FTP construction minimises crosstalk and external interference, ensuring reliable transmission for 10/100/1000Base-T(X) networks.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and patch panels in offices and data centres
• Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000Base-TX) networks
• Environments requiring PoE+ power delivery
• Installations where reduced smoke and halogen-free materials are required

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet ports on your devices, such as switches, routers or network interfaces. Ensure the connectors click into place with the latch protection engaged. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; the moulded boot with kink protection helps prevent damage at the connector. For permanent installations, verify channel performance after termination to ensure compliance with Cat6 specifications.

Recommendations

The cable is suitable for indoor structured cabling and patching in offices and data centres. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight and prolonged outdoor use; respect the minimum bend radius and do not subject the cable to mechanical stress beyond normal installation practices.
