DIGITUS patch kabel – CAT6a – S/FTP – Snagless – Cu – 30m – siva

The DIGITUS Network Cable CAT 6A S/FTP RJ-45, 30 m, is a high-performance patch cord designed for reliable data transmission in structured cabling systems. Manufactured to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 6A standards, the cable supports channel performance up to 500 MHz and is PoE+ ready. The S/FTP construction with copper conductors and a LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath ensures low smoke emissions and improved fire behaviour. The transparent yellow RJ-45 plug with metal shielding allows quick visual identification of Category 6A.

Advantages

The cable offers tested Category 6A performance including NEXT characteristics up to 500 MHz, durable molded boots with kink protection and strain relief, and a latch protection to prevent the connector tab from breaking. The S/FTP shielding and copper conductor reduce electromagnetic interference, while the LSZH sheath minimizes smoke and corrosive gases in case of fire. Transparent yellow, metal-shielded connectors simplify identification of Cat6A cabling.

Suitable for

• High-speed Ethernet networks (10 Gigabit Ethernet over copper)
• Structured cabling in offices and data centres
• PoE and PoE+ powered devices (IP phones, access points, cameras)
• Environments where low-smoke, zero-halogen cabling is required

How to use

Connect the RJ-45 plugs to Ethernet ports on network devices such as switches, routers, patch panels or endpoints. Ensure both ends are fully inserted until the latch clicks and check that the molded boot with strain relief is seated to avoid cable kinking. For permanent installations, route the cable according to local cabling guidelines and maintain appropriate bend radii to preserve performance. Verify network link and speed settings after installation.

Recommendations

Use this DIGITUS Cat 6A S/FTP patch cord for links requiring certified Category 6A performance, particularly where PoE+ is used or low-smoke, zero-halogen cabling is mandated. Avoid excessive bending, stretching, or repeated mechanical stress on the connector boots to maintain signal integrity.
