Network Cable Digitus CAT 6A S/FTP RJ-45 Cat6a 7m Yellow

The DIGITUS Network Cable CAT 6A S/FTP RJ-45, 7 m, Yellow is a Category 6A patch cord designed for high-speed Ethernet and structured cabling installations. It features S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference, a copper conductor, and a transparent yellow RJ-45 plug with metal shielding for easy identification of Category 6A performance up to 500 MHz. The cable jacket is LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) to improve fire behavior and minimize smoke emissions.

Advantages

This Cat6a patch cord is manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 6A specifications, ensuring compliance with ISO & EN channel requirements. The cable is PoE+ ready and delivers tested performance up to 500 MHz, including parameters such as NEXT. Each cable has a molded boot with kink protection, strain relief and a latch protector to reduce the risk of connector damage. The transparent yellow color makes Category 6A connections easy to identify in installations.

Suitable for

• High-speed Ethernet networks (10 Gigabit Ethernet)
• Structured cabling in data centers and server rooms
• PoE and PoE+ powered devices (access points, IP cameras, VoIP phones)
• Environments requiring low-smoke, zero-halogen cabling

Key specifications

• Standard: Category 6A (Class EA), tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173
• Frequency: up to 500 MHz
• Conductor: Copper (Cu)
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall shield + foil/shielded pairs)
• Connector: RJ-45 to RJ-45, metal-shielded, gold-plated contacts
• Length: 7 m
• Jacket: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Color: Yellow (transparent plug for easy identification)

How to use

Connect the RJ-45 plugs to compatible Ethernet ports on network switches, routers or devices, ensuring the latch clicks into place. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and excessive tension; use the molded boot and strain relief when pulling through trays or conduits. Verify link status on connected devices and test the installed channel if certification-level verification is required.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid bundling large numbers of cables without proper shielding and maintain bend radii larger than the cable diameter. Use this Cat6a cable for links requiring 10 Gigabit speeds or where PoE+ is used, and perform channel testing after installation if compliance with Category 6A standards must be certified.
