Network Cable Digitus CAT 6 S/FTP RJ-45 3m Blue

DIGITUS Category 6 Class E patch cords provide high-end performance for structured networks and are manufactured to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 6 specifications. The cable uses a copper conductor and a LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath for improved fire behaviour and reduced smoke emissions. A transparent red, metal-shielded RJ45 plug enables quick visual identification of Category 6 cabling and the cords are PoE+ ready.

Advantages

These patch cords are tested up to 250 MHz and meet channel performance requirements including near-end crosstalk (NEXT). Each cable features a molded boot with kink protection, strain relief and a latch protector to prevent damage to the locking tab. The metal shielding in the transparent red plug improves connection reliability while maintaining easy identification of Category 6 cables.

Key specifications

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to the network device and the other to the patch panel, switch or outlet. Ensure plugs are fully inserted until the latch clicks and route the cable to avoid sharp bends or mechanical stress. The molded boot with strain relief reduces stress at the connector; use proper cable management to maintain performance and lifetime.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use these Category 6 patch cords within a certified Category 6 cabling channel and avoid tight bends or excessive pulling force. Choose the red, transparent connector when you need clear visual identification of Category 6 links in dense cabling environments.
