Network Cable Digitus CAT 6 S/FTP RJ-45 2m Yellow

The DIGITUS Network Cable CAT 6 S/FTP RJ-45, 2 m in yellow is a Category 6 patch cord designed for structured cabling systems. It features S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference, copper conductors for reliable signal transmission, and LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath for improved fire behavior and low smoke emissions. The transparent red-colored plug with metal shielding identifies the cable as Category 6 (250 MHz) and the cable is PoE+ ready.

Advantages

This DIGITUS CAT 6 patch cord is manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 6 specifications, providing verified performance up to 250 MHz including NEXT characteristics. The molded boot includes kink protection, strain relief and a latch protection to prevent lever breakage. S/FTP shielding minimises interference, and the copper conductor ensures consistent data transmission. The yellow cable jacket supports easy visual identification in installations.

Suitable for

• Wired Ethernet networks requiring Category 6 performance
• Office and data center patching and horizontal cabling
• Power over Ethernet (PoE/PoE+) devices
• Environments where low smoke and halogen-free materials are required

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network port on your switch, router or patch panel and the other RJ-45 plug to the target device (PC, access point, IP phone, etc.). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch engages. Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid placing it near strong electromagnetic sources if possible. The molded boot provides strain relief; do not apply excessive force to the connector or pull on the cable jacket when disconnecting.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this DIGITUS CAT 6 S/FTP cable in Category 6 compliant installations and maintain bend radii recommended by cabling standards. For permanent horizontal cabling, verify channel specifications and testing requirements per ISO/IEC 11801 or local standards. Store and install in dry conditions and avoid exposure to temperatures outside the manufacturer's specified range.
