Network Cable Digitus CAT 6A S/FTP RJ-45 1m Blue

The DIGITUS Network Cable CAT 6A S/FTP RJ-45 1m in blue is a Class EA patch cord engineered for high-speed network connections and compatibility with ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 6A requirements. The cable features an S/FTP construction with copper conductors and an LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath for improved fire behaviour and reduced smoke emission. Connectors are transparent yellow–tinted but the cable jacket is blue, and each end is fitted with a molded boot providing kink protection, strain relief and a latch protector to reduce the risk of latch breakage. The cord is tested up to 500 MHz and is PoE+ ready.

Advantages

This Category 6A patch cord offers tested performance up to 500 MHz including NEXT characteristics, S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference, and copper conductors for reliable signal transmission. The LSZH outer sheath reduces toxic and dense smoke in the event of fire. Molded boots with strain relief, kink protection and latch protection increase durability and ease of installation. Transparent yellow connectors allow quick visual identification of Category 6A cabling.

Suitable for

• High-speed Ethernet networks (10/100/1000Base-T(X))
• Data centres and server rooms requiring Category 6A links
• Power over Ethernet installations (PoE+ compatible)
• Structured cabling channels requiring ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173 compliance

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network port on devices such as switches, routers, patch panels or computers until the latch clicks. Ensure the cable is routed without sharp bends and the molded boots are seated to provide strain relief. Use within structured cabling channels that accept Category 6A links and follow site regulations for LSZH cables where required.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, keep cable runs within the recommended channel lengths for Category 6A, avoid parallel runs alongside high-voltage power lines, and verify PoE+ power budgets for connected equipment. Use cable management to prevent excessive bending and mechanical stress.
