Patch cable CAT6 U-UTP slim, DIGITUS, 0.3 m, yellow, pack of 10

DIGITUS CAT6 U-UTP slim patch cable set, 0.3 m each, yellow, pack of 10 is a compact cable solution designed for short interconnections in high-density networking environments. The unshielded twisted pair (U-UTP) construction and stranded AWG 32/7 copper conductors deliver CAT6 performance up to 250 MHz and support data rates up to 1 Gbit/s. With a reduced total diameter of approximately 2.7 mm and a flexible jacket, these slim patch cables save space in patch panels, switch ports and cable management channels while providing strain relief and locking lever protection for reliable connections.

Advantages

The slim 2.7 mm diameter and flexible LSZH jacket make routing and installation in confined racks and network closets easier without compromising signal integrity. The cables comply with international cabling standards and include molded anti-kink sleeves and strain relief to prevent connector damage. PoE and PoE+ compatible pure copper conductors ensure reliable power delivery for connected devices. Supplied as a pack of 10, this set simplifies procurement for office and data center short-link requirements.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between switches and patch panels in office racks
• High-density cabling areas where space-saving cable diameter is required
• Home networks and small office setups needing reliable CAT6 performance
• PoE and PoE+ powered devices such as access points, VoIP phones and cameras

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the switch or patch panel port and the other connector into the corresponding device or patch port, ensuring the locking tab engages. Route the slim cable through cable management channels or tie points, respecting the recommended bending radius to avoid excessive stress on the conductor and insulation. For repeated connections, use the molded strain relief to reduce strain on the connector assembly.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, keep cable runs short as intended (0.3 m) and avoid sharp bends or crushing. Maintain separation from high-voltage power lines and strong electromagnetic sources to minimise interference. When deploying in dense patch panels, label ends for easier identification and verify connections with network testing tools after installation.
