Network patch cable DIGITUS CAT6 U‑UTP Slim, 1.5 m, green

DIGITUS CAT6 U-UTP Slim patch cable, 1.5 m, green is a slim unshielded twisted-pair Ethernet lead designed for Gigabit networks. The cable delivers CAT6 performance for data and voice transmission with a reduced outer diameter that eases routing in high-density racks, patch panels and tight spaces. Molded RJ45 plugs with strain relief and locking lever protection secure reliable connections for home, office and data center patching.

Advantages

The slim jacket with a total diameter of approximately 2.7 mm and a flexible LSZH outer casing reduces space requirements and improves bendability for crowded cabling runs. Stranded AWG 32/7 bare copper conductors combined with U-UTP construction provide the flexibility required for frequent handling while supporting transmission speeds up to 1 Gbit/s and a bandwidth of up to 250 MHz. The molded anti-kink sleeve and locking lever protection minimise mechanical stress at the connector.

Suitable for

• High-density patch panels and rack installations where space is limited
• Office and home networks requiring Gigabit Ethernet connections
• Patching between switches, routers and wall outlets in structured cabling
• Power over Ethernet (PoE and PoE+) deployments with pure copper conductors

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the network device or patch panel and the other into the target port, ensuring the locking lever engages. Route the slim cable through cable management channels or behind racks, maintaining the recommended bending radius to avoid excessive stress on the conductors. For PoE applications use standard-compliant power sourcing equipment and ensure connectors and ports are compatible with PoE/PoE+.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid sharp bends and keep separation from strong electromagnetic sources. Use the slim DIGITUS CAT6 U-UTP Slim cable in environments with high cabling density to save space and maintain proper airflow. Verify port and equipment compatibility when deploying PoE or PoE+ to ensure safe power delivery.
