DIGITUS Patchkabel - CAT6 - S/FTP - Rastnasenschutz - Cu - 10m - geel

The DIGITUS Network Cable CAT 6 S/FTP RJ-45 10m in yellow is a Category 6 Class E patch cord designed for structured cabling and reliable data transmission up to 250 MHz. The cable uses copper conductors and S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference, and features transparent red-colored, metal-shielded RJ-45 plugs for easy identification of Category 6 performance. The sheath is LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) to improve fire behaviour and minimise smoke emissions.

Advantages

This CAT 6 patch cord is manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 6 specifications, ensuring channel compliance and consistent performance including near end crosstalk (NEXT) measurements up to 250 MHz. The cable is PoE+ ready, fitted with moulded boots offering kink protection and strain relief, and the boots include latch protection to prevent the latching lever from breaking. Its yellow jacket improves visibility in installations while the transparent red, metal-shielded connector facilitates quick category recognition.

Suitable for

• Ethernet networks requiring Category 6 performance (up to 250 MHz)
• Office and home network connections between switches, routers and endpoints
• Environments where PoE+ devices (IP phones, cameras, access points) are used
• Installations needing LSZH jacket for improved fire safety

Key specifications

• Length: 10 m
• Category: Cat 6 / Class E, tested up to 250 MHz
• Conductor material: Copper (Cu)
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil + individually shielded pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, metal-shielded, transparent red coloured plug
• Jacket: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• PoE+ ready
• Colour: Yellow

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network device (switch, router or patch panel) and the other RJ-45 plug to the endpoint (PC, access point, IP camera or other network hardware). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks and route the cable to avoid sharp bends; the moulded boot provides kink protection and strain relief. For best performance, avoid running the cable parallel and close to power lines or strong electromagnetic sources.

Recommendations

The cable is suitable for installations requiring Cat 6 performance and PoE+ support; use in LSZH-compliant environments where reduced smoke and halogen-free emissions are needed. For sustained performance, follow standard cabling practices and keep bend radius within manufacturer guidelines.
