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

The Digitus Network Cable CAT 6 S/FTP RJ-45, 5 m, green is a Category 6 patch cord engineered for reliable data transmission in structured cabling. It features S/FTP shielding, copper conductors and an LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath to reduce smoke and toxic gases in case of fire. The transparent red coloured plug with metal shielding identifies the cable as Category 6 and the connectors are RJ-45 on both ends. The cable is PoE+ ready and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 standards with performance specified up to 250 MHz.

Advantages

The cable combines S/FTP shielding and copper conductors to provide improved protection against electromagnetic interference and reliable signal transmission. The LSZH sheath ensures low smoke and no halogen emissions for safer use in enclosed spaces. A molded boot with kink protection, strain relief and latch protection on the connector improves mechanical durability and prevents the latching lever from breaking. The product is factory-tested to Category 6 channel requirements, including NEXT performance up to 250 MHz.

Suitable for

• Structured Ethernet networks in offices and homes
• PoE+ devices such as IP phones, cameras and access points
• Data transmission up to 250 MHz and Category 6 installations

How to use

Connect each RJ-45 plug to the network ports on your devices or patch panels, ensuring secure insertion until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and protect it from mechanical strain; the molded boot provides additional kink protection. For PoE+ devices, verify power and device compatibility before connecting. The cable can be used as part of a structured cabling channel compliant with Category 6 installation rules.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running this S/FTP cable parallel to high-voltage power lines and maintain manufacturer-recommended bend radius. Use within a properly installed Category 6 channel and test after installation to confirm link performance up to 250 MHz.
