Networking Cable Digitus DK-1632-A-005S-Y 0.5m Cat6a F/FTP Yellow

The DIGITUS Networking Cable DK-1632-A-005S-Y is a 0.5 m Cat6a F/FTP patch cable with RJ-45 connectors and a slim, flexible jacket. Engineered to meet ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 CAT6A requirements, the cable supports transmission speeds up to 10 Gbit/s and has been tested for performance up to 500 MHz, including near-end crosstalk (NEXT). The yellow color improves visibility for structured cabling in data centers, high-density installations and home offices.

Advantages

The slim and flexible design enables easy routing in confined spaces and high-density racks while the molded anti-kink sleeve with strain relief and locking lever protection reduces the risk of connector damage. F/FTP shielding and bronze/gold-plated RJ-45 contacts ensure reliable signal integrity and PoE+ compatibility for power-over-Ethernet applications.

Suitable for

• Data centers and server rooms
• High-density network installations and patch panels
• Home offices and small office networks
• Power-over-Ethernet (PoE/PoE+) devices

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6a (ISO/IEC 11801, DIN EN 50173)
• Shielding: F/FTP (foil overall with foil-braided pairs)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Data rate: up to 10 Gbit/s
• Frequency: up to 500 MHz
• Connectors: RJ-45 – both ends, bronze/gold plating
• Color: Yellow

How to use

Connect the RJ-45 plugs to the corresponding Ethernet ports on devices or patch panels. Route the slim cable through cable management channels or tight spaces as required; the flexible jacket simplifies installation in congested areas. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the locking lever engages and avoid sharp bends near the connector to preserve signal performance.

Recommendations

For best results, use this Cat6a F/FTP cable in shielded or grounded installations where possible, maintain bend radii recommended by the manufacturer, and employ proper strain relief when connecting to switches, patch panels or PoE devices.
