Patch cable DIGITUS CAT6 U-UTP Slim, 1.5 m, blue

DIGITUS CAT6 U-UTP Slim patch cable, 1.5 m, blue is an unshielded twisted-pair Ethernet lead designed for CAT6 networks. With a slim jacket and RJ45 terminations, this 1.5 m cable supports Gigabit Ethernet and a frequency of up to 250 MHz while saving space behind devices and in patch panels. The cable uses stranded AWG 32/7 pure copper conductors and an unshielded pair structure to provide flexibility and reliable short-distance connectivity in homes, offices and data cabinets.

Advantages

The slim outer diameter of approximately 2.7 mm and a flexible LSZH jacket reduce bulk and improve cable routing in high-density installations. The cable supports transmission speeds up to 1 Gbit/s and is suitable for PoE and PoE+ thanks to pure copper conductors. RJ45 molded plugs with strain relief and locking lever protection minimize the risk of damage and connector failures. Manufactured to international CAT6 standards, the cable offers consistent electrical performance and a long service life rated for multiple mating cycles.

Suitable for

• Short-distance Ethernet links in offices and homes
• Connections in dense patch panels and data cabinets
• Linking switches, routers, patch panels and wall outlets
• PoE and PoE+ powered devices such as IP phones and access points

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to the network device (switch, router or wall jack) and the other plug to the target device, ensuring that the locking tab clicks into place. Route the slim cable through cable channels or behind equipment, keeping bend radii above the recommended minimum to avoid signal degradation. For installations in patch panels, use the cable’s reduced diameter to maintain tidy, high-density terminations and avoid excess strain on connectors.

Recommendations

Use the DIGITUS CAT6 U-UTP Slim patch cable for short to medium runs where space is limited and high port density is required. Maintain the specified bending radius and avoid sharp bends or tight staples. For installations delivering PoE/PoE+ power, verify device power requirements and ensure proper ventilation to avoid overheating of connected equipment.
