DIGITUS Patch cable Copper conductor - CAT6 - S/FTP - Snagless - 2m - green

The DIGITUS Network Cable CAT 6 S/FTP RJ-45, 2 m, is a Category 6 patch cord designed for structured cabling systems requiring Class E performance. It features S/FTP shielding, a copper conductor and LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) outer sheath to minimize smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire. The transparent red molded RJ-45 plug with metal shielding and strain-relief boot includes latch protection and kink protection. The cable is PoE+ ready and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 specifications with performance up to 250 MHz.

Advantages

Provides Category 6 performance tested up to 250 MHz with parameters such as NEXT verified; S/FTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference; LSZH sheath improves fire-safety behaviour by producing low smoke and no halogens; molded boot with strain relief and latch protection increases connector durability; transparent red, metal-shielded plug enables quick identification of Cat6 cabling; PoE+ compatibility supports powered devices.

Suitable for

• Structured Ethernet networks in offices and homes
• Connections requiring reduced EMI/RFI interference (S/FTP)
• PoE and PoE+ powered devices such as IP phones and access points
• Patch panels, switches and workstation connections

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network device (switch, router or patch panel) and the other into the endpoint (PC, IP phone or access point). Ensure connectors fully seat until the latch clicks and route the cable to avoid sharp bends; the molded boot provides kink protection. For patch panels and closets, maintain bend radius and avoid running parallel to high-voltage power cables to reduce interference. The cable is ready for PoE+ powered equipment when connected to a compatible power-sourcing device.

Recommendations

For best long-term performance, install in compliance with ISO and EN channel guidelines, avoid excessive bending and tension, and keep separation from mains power to reduce interference. Use the colored connector for easy identification of Cat6 links in your patching infrastructure.
