Network Cable Digitus CAT 6 S/FTP 15m RJ-45 Grey

The DIGITUS Network Cable CAT 6 S/FTP 15m RJ-45 in grey is a Category 6 patch cord designed for structured networks and high-speed data transmission. It features S/FTP shielding, copper conductors and a 15 m length, meeting ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 6 requirements. The cable is PoE+ ready and the connectors are transparent red for easy identification of Category 6.

Advantages

LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath reduces smoke and toxic gas emissions in case of fire. The S/FTP construction minimises electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, ensuring stable performance up to 250 MHz. Molded boots provide kink protection, strain relief and a latch protector to prevent connector damage. Copper conductors support reliable signal transmission and PoE+ compatibility.

Suitable for

• Wired LAN connections in offices and data centres
• Horizontal cabling and patch panels
• Power over Ethernet (PoE/PoE+) device connections
• Applications requiring Category 6 performance up to 250 MHz

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to your network device (switch, router, patch panel) and the other plug to the corresponding port on the target device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks and route the cable to avoid sharp bends; the molded boot with kink protection reduces stress at the connector. For permanent installations, use appropriate cable management and secure the cable to avoid strain.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, maintain bending radii recommended for Cat 6 cables, avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines, and perform network testing after installation to verify channel performance up to 250 MHz.
