Network Cable Digitus CAT 6 U/UTP RJ-45 Cat6 1m Blue

The DIGITUS Network Cable CAT 6 U/UTP RJ-45, 1 m, is a Category 6 patch cord designed for reliable data transmission in structured cabling systems. It is manufactured to meet ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 6 specifications, tested up to 250 MHz, and fitted with molded boots that provide kink protection, strain relief and latch protection. The cable has copper conductors, transparent red Category 6 plugs for easy identification and a LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath for improved fire behaviour and reduced smoke emissions. PoE+ ready, this blue 1 m cable features RJ-45 connectors on both ends and is suitable for home and office network connections.

Advantages

The DIGITUS Cat 6 patch cord offers standardized Cat6 performance up to 250 MHz including NEXT characteristics, solid copper conductors for consistent signal transmission, and LSZH jacket material for better fire safety and low smoke output. Molded boots with kink protection and reinforced latch guards increase connector durability, while the transparent red plug allows quick visual identification of Category 6 cabling. The cable is PoE+ ready, supporting powered devices over Ethernet.

Suitable for

• Ethernet connections in office and home networks
• Patch panels and switches requiring Cat6 compliance
• Power over Ethernet (PoE/PoE+) devices
• Structured cabling installations that require LSZH materials

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to your network device (switch, patch panel or router) and the other RJ-45 connector to the target device (PC, access point, IP phone). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks and route the cable without sharp bends to avoid damaging the internal conductors. Use the molded boot and strain relief to protect the termination point and avoid placing heavy objects on the cable or tight kinks that could impair performance.

Recommendations

For best results in structured cabling, keep patch cords short where possible, separate data and power cabling runs, and follow local fire safety guidelines when installing LSZH-sheathed cables in enclosed or public spaces.
