DIGITUS Patch cable - CAT6 - S/FTP - Snagless - Cu - 10m - blue - 5pk

Future-oriented standards and high-end quality for your network: DIGITUS Category 6 Class E patch cords deliver ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 compliant performance up to 250 MHz. The cables use copper conductors and are PoE+ ready. Each patch cord has an LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath for improved fire behavior and reduced smoke emission, and a transparent red plug with metal shielding for easy identification of Category 6.

Advantages

These patch cords are manufactured and tested to Category 6 specifications to ensure channel compliance and reliable performance, including near-end crosstalk (NEXT) characteristics. Molded boots provide kink protection, strain relief and an integrated latch protector to prevent the latching lever from breaking. The transparent red connector facilitates quick visual identification in cabling installations.

Key specifications

• Standard: ISO/IEC 11801, DIN EN 50173 (Category 6, Class E)
• Frequency range: up to 250 MHz
• Conductor material: Copper (Cu)
• Sheath: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Connector: Transparent red plug with metal shielding
• PoE support: PoE+
• Features: Molded boot, kink protection, strain relief, latch protection

How to use

Connect the patch cord between network devices or between a device and a patch panel using the RJ45 plug ends. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch engages and use the molded boot to guide the cable to avoid sharp bends. For rack or cabinet installations, route the cable to minimize stress on the connector and avoid excessive bending radii to maintain performance up to 250 MHz.

Recommendations

Use these Category 6 patch cords within an ISO/EN compliant channel and pair them with compatible Category 6 components for guaranteed end-to-end performance. Store and install cables in environments that avoid extreme temperatures and mechanical strain.
