Patch cable CAT6 U-UTP Slim, DIGITUS, 5 m, green, pack of 10

DIGITUS CAT6 U-UTP Slim patch cables, 5 m length, green, pack of 10 are unshielded twisted-pair network leads designed for Gigabit and Fast Ethernet connections. With a reduced outer diameter of 2.7 mm and flexible LSZH jacket, these slim cables allow dense cable routing in patch panels, wall ducts and confined spaces while providing reliable 1 Gbit/s transmission up to 250 MHz. Each cable features stranded AWG 32/7 bare copper conductors, molded strain relief with locking lever protection and RJ45 plugs, manufactured to meet ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173 CAT6 standards.

Advantages

The slim 2.7 mm diameter and flexible jacket simplify installation in high-density environments and save space on cable trays and patch panels. Stranded AWG 32/7 copper conductors and U-UTP construction provide sufficient flexibility for frequent handling and routing while supporting PoE and PoE+ applications. Conformance to international cabling standards ensures predictable performance for 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet, and molded strain relief with locking lever protection reduces the risk of connector damage during use.

Suitable for

• Office horizontal cabling and patch panels where space is limited
• Home networks and AV device interconnections
• High-density rack and data center cable routing
• Connecting switches, routers, desktops and IP telephony devices supporting Gigabit Ethernet

How to use

Route the DIGITUS CAT6 U-UTP Slim cable through cable ducts, underfloor channels or around patch panels following recommended bend radius to avoid kinking. Insert the RJ45 plug into the network device until the locking tab engages; the molded strain relief protects the cable at the connector. Use the cables to link switches, routers, PCs, IP phones and other network equipment requiring Gigabit Ethernet. For installations with multiple runs, label both ends as needed and avoid tight coils or sharp bends during deployment.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, maintain the specified bending radius, keep cable runs away from high-voltage power lines to minimize interference, and verify PoE compatibility of connected devices when using powered applications. Replace any cable showing visible damage to insulation or connector strain relief to ensure reliable network operation.
