Network Cable Digitus CAT 6 U/FTP Slim patch cord RJ-45 Cat6 10m Grey

Network Cable Digitus CAT 6 U/FTP Slim patch cord RJ-45 Cat6 10m Grey is a slim, flexible Category 6 patch cable designed for space-saving cabling and reliable data transmission up to 250 MHz. The cable has a small outer diameter of 3.65 mm, inner copper conductors and U/FTP shielding for improved protection against electromagnetic interference. The transparent red connector indicates Category 6 compliance and the molded boot provides kink protection, strain relief and latch protection to reduce the risk of connector damage.

Advantages

The slim 3.65 mm outer diameter enables flexible routing in dense racks and confined spaces while maintaining Category 6 performance. LSZH (low smoke zero halogen) outer sheath improves fire behaviour and reduces smoke emission. U/FTP shielding increases immunity to crosstalk and external interference. Molded boots with kink protection and a reinforced latch protect the connector and extend service life. The cable is manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 6 specifications, with performance verified up to 250 MHz including NEXT characteristics.

Suitable for

• Structured cabling in offices and data centres
• Patch panels and switches in high-density racks
• Connections for Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000Base-T)
• Environments requiring low-smoke, halogen-free materials

How to use

Route the slim patch cord between your patch panel and network device or between two network devices, avoiding sharp bends and excessive tension. Insert the RJ-45 connectors fully into the corresponding ports until the latch clicks. Use the molded boot as strain relief and ensure the latch protection covers the lever to prevent breakage. For best performance keep cable runs within recommended length limits and avoid running parallel to high-voltage power lines.

Recommendations

Use this DIGITUS CAT 6 U/FTP slim patch cord for Gigabit Ethernet connections in dense rack environments and areas where low-smoke, halogen-free cabling is required. For sustained performance, install according to structured cabling best practices and test channel performance after installation.
