Netwerkkabel Digitus CAT 6 U/UTP RJ-45 10m geel

The DIGITUS Network Cable CAT 6 U/UTP RJ-45, 10 m, yellow is a Category 6 patch cord designed to meet ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Class E requirements. It features copper conductors, gold-plated contacts, and RJ-45 connectors with molded boots that provide kink protection, strain relief and latch protection. The transparent red connector color identifies the cable as Category 6 and the LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket reduces smoke and hazardous gases in case of fire. The cable is PoE+ ready and tested for performance up to 250 MHz, supporting high-speed Ethernet applications.

Advantages

This CAT 6 U/UTP patch cord offers standards-compliant performance up to 250 MHz with tested characteristics such as NEXT (near-end crosstalk). The LSZH sheath improves fire behaviour and lowers smoke emissions. Molded boots with strain relief and latch protection increase connector durability, and copper conductors with gold-plated contacts ensure reliable signal transmission. The yellow cable and transparent red plug simplify identification and cable management.

Suitable for

• 10GBase-T and Gigabit Ethernet connections
• Patch panels, wall sockets and network switches
• PoE and PoE+ powered devices
• Structured cabling in office and data center environments

Key specifications

• Category: CAT 6 (Class E), tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173
• Length: 10 m
• Conductor: Copper (Cu)
• Connector: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair)
• Jacket: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Performance: up to 250 MHz
• Color: Yellow (cable) with transparent red plug
• PoE: PoE+ ready

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to a network device (switch, router, wall outlet) and the other RJ-45 connector to the target device (PC, server, access point). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks and route the cable to avoid sharp bends; the molded boot provides kink protection but maintain bend radii recommended for Ethernet cables. For structured cabling, use patch panels and labeled ports to keep the yellow CAT 6 cable identifiable within the installation.

Recommendations

Use the cable in indoor installations where LSZH material is required or preferred. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight and excessive mechanical stress; replace the patch cord if the connector latch or cable sheath is damaged to maintain performance and safety.
