Patch cable DIGITUS CAT 6 U-UTP Slim, 0.3 m, blue, pack of 10

DIGITUS CAT 6 U-UTP Slim patch cable pack contains ten blue 0.3 m cables designed for short network connections where space is limited. Each cable supports Gigabit Ethernet at up to 1 Gbit/s and a transmission frequency of 250 MHz. The unshielded twisted pair (U-UTP) construction with stranded AWG 32/7 bare copper conductors and a slim outer diameter makes these patch cables suitable for high-density patch panels, wall outlets and rack environments while maintaining flexibility and durability. Molded strain relief and locking lever protection reduce stress at the RJ45 plug and help prevent damage during frequent insertion and removal.

Advantages

The slim overall diameter (approximately 2.7 mm) and flexible LSZH jacket provide space-saving routing in cable ducts and behind equipment. Compliance with ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 CAT 6 standards ensures consistent electrical performance and interoperability with existing network infrastructure. These cables are PoE and PoE+ capable because of their pure copper conductors, and the robust molded connector design supports up to 750 mating cycles for reliable long-term use.

Suitable for

• High-density patch panels and network racks where short patch cords are required
• Office and enterprise desktop connections to switches and patch panels
• Home networking and multimedia installations with limited cable space
• PoE and PoE+ powered devices such as IP phones and wireless access points

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug of the 0.3 m DIGITUS CAT 6 U-UTP Slim patch cable to a network device and the other plug to a switch, patch panel or wall outlet. Ensure the locking lever engages to secure the connection. Route the slim cable along cable management channels or behind equipment to minimize space usage and avoid sharp bends; observe the recommended bending radius when installing. For PoE-powered devices, connect the patch cable between the power sourcing equipment and the powered device following normal network cabling procedures.

Recommendations

Use these slim patch cables for short links inside racks, patch panels and wallboxes. Avoid repeated sharp bending near the connector and keep within the specified operating temperature range for reliable performance. Replace cables after visible damage or when insertion/removal cycles approach the specified service life.
