Patch cable DIGITUS CAT 6 U-UTP Slim 1.5 m, yellow — pack of 10

DIGITUS CAT 6 U-UTP Slim patch cable, 1.5 m length, yellow, pack of 10, provides CAT 6 performance in a reduced-diameter cable designed for high-density cabling and confined installation spaces. These unshielded twisted-pair (U-UTP) patch cords support gigabit Ethernet at up to 1 Gbit/s and a transmission frequency of 250 MHz. Each cable features stranded bare copper conductors and a flexible LSZH outer jacket with molded strain relief and locking lever protection to reduce wear and prevent connector damage during regular use.

Advantages

The slim 2.7 mm cable diameter combined with flexible construction enables neat routing in patch panels, cable ducts and behind furniture without sacrificing CAT 6 signal characteristics. Compliance with international standards ensures predictable electrical performance while the stranded AWG 32/7 copper conductors maintain flexibility for repeated movement. PoE and PoE+ compatibility with pure copper conductors supports powering devices over Ethernet when required.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Office gigabit LAN connections between switches, patch panels and workstations
• Home networks and multimedia streaming setups
• High-density cabling in server rooms and comms cabinets
• Patch panels, wall outlets and confined cable routes behind furniture

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to the network device (switch, router, patch panel or wall outlet) and the other RJ45 plug to the target device or port. Ensure the locking lever engages to secure each connection. Route the slim cable along ducts, behind panels or through cable management fixtures, keeping bending radii above the recommended 15 × outer diameter to maintain signal integrity. Avoid tight kinks and sharp edges that could damage the jacket or conductors.

Recommendations

For reliable long-term performance, use these slim CAT 6 patch cables for horizontal and patching runs up to typical LAN distances, avoid running cables parallel to high-voltage power lines, and store spare cables without tight coils to prevent deformation. Check connectors periodically if used in frequently reconfigured patch panels to ensure secure mating and intact strain relief.
