DIGITUS Patch cable - Cat 5e - U-UTP - Snagless - 2m - red

The DIGITUS Category 5e U/UTP patch cord is a 2 m network cable with RJ-45 connectors at both ends, designed for reliable data transmission up to 100 MHz. The cable is manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 5e standards to ensure channel compliance and consistent performance. The transparent blue colored plug enables quick identification of Category 5e cabling while the molded boot with kink protection and strain relief preserves connector integrity. A latch protector reduces the risk of latch lever breakage.

Advantages

Manufactured to recognized international standards, this CAT 5e patch cord delivers tested transmission performance including NEXT characteristics up to 100 MHz. The U/UTP construction minimizes external interference for stable connections, and the molded boot with strain relief and latch protection increases durability. The transparent blue connector provides fast visual identification of Category 5e.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, switches and routers in home and small office networks
• Patching within structured cabling systems conforming to ISO/EN channel requirements
