Network Cable Digitus CAT 6 U/UTP RJ-45 3m Yellow

The DIGITUS Category 6 U/UTP patch cord, 3 m, is a high-performance network cable designed for modern structured cabling. It features RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts, a transparent red connector cover for quick Category 6 identification, and an LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath to reduce smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire. The cable is PoE+ ready and supports testing and performance up to 250 MHz, meeting ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 6 specifications.

Advantages

The patch cord is manufactured and tested to Category 6 (Class E) standards, ensuring compliance with ISO & EN channel specification requirements and providing reliable performance characteristics including NEXT up to 250 MHz. The molded boot offers kink protection, strain relief and an integrated latch protection to prevent the latching lever from breaking. Copper conductors and gold‑plated contacts provide stable signal transmission, and the yellow LSZH jacket increases visibility while offering improved fire behaviour.

Suitable for

• Wired Ethernet networks (10GBase-T compatible applications)
• Patch panels, switches and network outlets
• Environments requiring LSZH cabling (public buildings, offices, data centers)
• Power over Ethernet installations (PoE+ ready)

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network device (switch, router or network interface) and the other RJ-45 plug to the corresponding port on the patch panel or endpoint. Ensure connectors latch securely into place and that the molded boot is not pinched. For installations in racks or cable ducts, allow gentle bends and avoid sharp kinks to maintain signal performance. Follow standard cabling best practices for separation from electrical power lines and proper cable management.

Recommendations

Use this DIGITUS Category 6 U/UTP cable for structured cabling runs and patching where Category 6 performance and LSZH safety characteristics are required; verify channel limits and test After installation to confirm compliance with site-specific requirements.
