Network Cable Digitus CAT 6A S/FTP RJ-45 Cat6a 15m Yellow

The DIGITUS Network Cable CAT 6A S/FTP RJ-45, 15 m, Yellow is a Class EA patch cord engineered to meet ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 6A specifications. Constructed with copper conductors and S/FTP shielding, it is tested up to 500 MHz to ensure performance characteristics such as NEXT are within standard limits. The cable features an LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) outer sheath for improved fire behaviour and low smoke emissions, and transparent yellow RJ-45 plugs with metal shielding for easy identification of Cat6A links. Molded boots provide kink protection, strain relief and a latch guard to reduce the risk of connector damage.

Advantages

The CAT 6A S/FTP design reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, supporting reliable high-bandwidth network transmissions and PoE+ applications. LSZH jacket improves safety in enclosed or public spaces by limiting toxic fumes in case of fire. Transparent yellow, metal-shielded plugs make the Cat6A cables easy to identify in structured cabling installations, and molded boots with strain relief extend connector durability.

Suitable for

• Structured network installations requiring Cat6A performance up to 500 MHz
• Data centres, server rooms and office LAN environments

How to use

Route the 15 m DIGITUS CAT 6A cable between network devices or patch panels, ensuring bends respect the minimum bend radius and that the cable is not pinched or sharply kinked. Insert the RJ-45 plugs fully into compatible ports until the latch engages; the molded boot and latch guard help protect the connector during handling. The shielded RJ-45 connectors require proper grounding at patch panels or chassis to obtain full S/FTP performance benefits.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, install the cable following Cat6A channel guidelines, avoid running parallel to high-voltage power lines, and terminate or connect the shield to a grounded metal chassis or patch panel. Use the yellow color coding to separate Cat6A runs from other cabling in the installation.
