Network Cable Digitus Cat.6A U/UTP 500m Blue

The Digitus Cat.6A U/UTP installation cable (500 m) is a shielded network cable designed for high-speed structured cabling in residential and commercial environments. Built to support 10GBase-T and tested to recognized category 6A standards, this blue cable provides stable transmission up to 500 MHz and supports Power over Ethernet (PoE). The cable is supplied on a paper pullout box for convenient deployment and carries clear sheath printing for easy identification during installation.

Advantages

This U/UTP cable reduces interference and maintains consistent signal quality across longer runs thanks to its category 6A construction and twisted pair design with AWG 23 conductors. It supports 10 Gbit Ethernet and a 500 MHz transmission bandwidth, enabling high-throughput applications. The blue outer sheath offers straightforward visual identification in wiring environments, and the paper pullout box simplifies cable handling and routing.

Suitable for

• 10GBase-T Ethernet backbones and horizontal runs
• PoE and PoE+ devices such as access points and IP cameras
• Office and data center structured cabling installations
• Residential networks requiring high bandwidth for streaming and smart-home devices

Key specifications

• Cabling technology: 10GBase-T
• Conductor size and type: AWG 23, copper conductors with polyethylene insulation
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded pairs within an overall unshielded sheath)
• Maximum transmission frequency: 500 MHz
• Supported data rate: up to 10 Gbit/s
• Power over Ethernet: supported
• Fire performance: CPR class Dca
• Length: 500 m on pullout box
• Color: blue outer sheath

How to use

Run the cable from the distribution point to the destination following local cabling practices and bend-radius limits. Pull the required length from the paper box to avoid twisting and tangling. Terminate the cable on compatible RJ45 jacks or keystone modules rated for category 6A and verify pair alignment and continuity before finalizing connections. Test each link with a certified network tester to confirm performance up to 10GBase-T and to validate PoE delivery where applicable.

Recommendations

For best performance, maintain correct pair untwisting limits at terminations and avoid running the cable parallel to large power lines or near sources of electromagnetic interference. Use appropriate cable management and strain relief, and follow local building and fire-safety regulations when installing CPR class Dca cables.
