DeLOCK Network Cable RJ45 plug to RJ45 plug Cat.6 STP 1m IP68 Black

This DeLOCK network cable with RJ45 plug to RJ45 plug conforms to Cat.6 and is 1 m long. It features STP shielding and an IP68-rated waterproof built-in plug, making it suitable for outdoor installations where dust and water protection are required.

Advantages

The cable provides Cat.6 performance with S/UTP (shielded) construction for improved signal integrity. Both ends use standard RJ45 connectors for direct connection between network devices such as NICs, switches or patch panels. The IP68 waterproof plug ensures protection against dust and water when fitted into compatible housings, supporting reliable operation in harsh environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting a NIC to a switch or patch panel

How to use

Insert each RJ45 plug into the corresponding RJ45 sockets on the devices to be connected (for example, a network interface card and a switch). If the installation is outdoors or in a location exposed to dust and moisture, fit the waterproof built-in plug into a compatible housing cut-out to achieve the IP68 protection. Ensure connectors are fully seated and cable routing avoids sharp bends.

Recommendations

For maintained IP68 protection, verify the housing cut-out and plug seating are compatible and periodically inspect seals for damage. Use the cable for standard Cat.6 links up to recommended distances and avoid excessive pulling force on the connectors.
