Patch cable DIGITUS CAT6 U-UTP Slim, 2 m, green, pack of 10

DIGITUS CAT6 U-UTP Slim patch cables, 2 m length, green, pack of 10, provide CAT6 performance for structured Ethernet networks. These unshielded twisted-pair cables are designed with a reduced outer diameter and flexible jacket to simplify routing in dense installations such as patch panels, racks and wall outlets. Each cable is terminated with an RJ45 plug and a molded anti-kink sleeve with strain relief and locking lever protection to reduce connector damage and ensure reliable connections for LAN links, switches and end devices.

Advantages

The slim design (approx. 2.7 mm total diameter) and stranded AWG 32/7 bare copper conductors deliver high flexibility for confined spaces without sacrificing CAT6 performance up to 250 MHz and transmission speeds suitable for 1 Gbit/s. The cables use LSZH outer casing for reduced smoke and halogen emissions and meet international cabling standards including ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173. PoE and PoE+ applications are supported due to the solid copper conductor construction and standardized pin assignment.

Suitable for

• Office and corporate LAN installations with high cable density
• Patch panels, network racks and switch interconnects
• Home networks and multimedia device connections
• Environments where space-saving cable routing is required

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug of the DIGITUS CAT6 U-UTP Slim patch cable to the network port of the device or switch and the other plug to the patch panel, wall outlet or another network device. Ensure the locking lever fully engages to secure the connection and avoid excessive bending at the connector by using the molded anti-kink sleeve as strain relief. Route cables following your rack or cable management plan, keeping pairs untwisted as little as possible at terminations to maintain performance.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid sharp bends and maintain the recommended bending radius (15× outer diameter). Use these slim patch cables in high-density installations where space and airflow are limited. When deploying Power over Ethernet (PoE/PoE+), verify device power requirements and ensure connectors are fully seated. Replace cables that show visible damage or exceed the rated service life of mating cycles.
