DIGITUS Patch cable - Cat 5e - U-UTP - Snagless - Cu - 25cm - Grey

The DIGITUS Patch cord CAT 5e U/UTP DK-1511-0025 is a 0.25 m grey patch cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, designed for reliable network connections in home and office environments. Manufactured to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 5e specifications, this cable supports performance up to 100 MHz and is suitable for PoE applications. The transparent blue connector allows easy identification of Category 5e.

Advantages

Constructed with copper conductors and U/UTP construction, the patch cord offers consistent signal transmission and compliance with Category 5e channel requirements. The molded boot includes kink protection, strain relief and a latch protector to reduce connector damage and improve durability. The cable is factory tested for characteristics such as near-end crosstalk (NEXT) up to 100 MHz.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Connecting network devices in home and small office LANs
• Patch panel to switch or wall outlet connections
