DIGITUS Patch cable - CAT6a - S/FTP - Snagless - Cu - 1m - yellow

The DIGITUS Patch cord CAT 6A S/FTP DK-1644-A-010/Y is a 1 m yellow network cable designed for high-performance Ethernet connections. It features S/FTP shielding, copper conductors and LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath for improved fire behaviour and reduced smoke emissions. The transparent yellow RJ-45 plug with metal shielding identifies Category 6A (500 MHz) capability and the cable supports PoE+ power delivery.

Advantages

This Category 6A patch cord is manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 standards, ensuring channel compliance and performance up to 500 MHz including NEXT characteristics. The molded boot provides kink protection, strain relief and a latch protector to reduce the risk of connector damage. S/FTP shielding and copper conductors contribute to stable data transmission and reduced interference.

Suitable for

• Structured cabling installations requiring Category 6A performance
• High-speed Ethernet networks up to 10 Gigabit
• Environments where PoE+ is used to power devices
• Installations needing low-smoke, halogen-free cabling

How to use

Connect the RJ-45 plug at each end to the corresponding network ports (switch, patch panel, network device) ensuring the latch clicks into place. Route the cable without sharp bends to preserve the molded boot’s kink protection and avoid excessive tension to maintain strain relief. For best performance, keep the patch cord separate from high-power electrical cables and maintain recommended bend radius during installation.

Recommendations

Use this Digitus CAT 6A S/FTP patch cord for short interconnections within racks, between patch panels and switches, or to connect endpoints where Category 6A performance and PoE+ compatibility are required. Regularly inspect connectors and boots for damage and replace the cable if shielding or insulation is compromised.
