Netwerkkabel Digitus CAT 6A S/FTP RJ-45 Cat6a 2 m grijs

The DIGITUS Network Cable CAT 6A S/FTP RJ-45, 2 m, is a Category 6A patch cord designed for reliable high-speed data transmission. The cable uses copper conductors and S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference, meets Cat6A performance up to 500 MHz and is PoE+ ready. The transparent yellow RJ-45 plug with metal shielding allows quick identification of Category 6A connectors while the grey cable sheath provides a neutral appearance suitable for office and home installations.

Advantages

Component level tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 6A requirements, this patch cord guarantees compliance with channel specification limits and includes moulded boots with kink protection, strain relief and latch protection to reduce connector damage. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath improves fire behaviour and reduces smoke emissions. Performance characteristics such as NEXT are verified up to 500 MHz, and the cable is compatible with PoE+ power delivery.

Suitable for

• High-speed Ethernet networks (10GBASE-T and lower)
• Office and data center horizontal cabling runs
• PoE and PoE+ powered devices (IP phones, cameras, access points)
• Environments requiring low-smoke, zero-halogen cabling

Key specifications

• Frequency range: up to 500 MHz
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall shield with individually shielded pairs)
• Conductor material: Copper (Cu)
• Connector: RJ-45 with metal shielding, transparent yellow plug
• Cable length: 2 m
• Sheath: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Colour: Grey (cable), transparent yellow (connector)
• PoE compatibility: PoE+

How to use

Plug the RJ-45 connectors into the network ports of your devices and network equipment until the latch clicks into place. Route the 2 m cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; the moulded boot with kink protection and strain relief reduces stress at the connector. For identification, note the transparent yellow connector that denotes Category 6A performance. Ensure both ends are connected to compatible Cat6A or higher ports to achieve rated performance.

Recommendations

For best signal performance, avoid running the cable parallel and close to power lines or large electrical equipment. Use appropriate cable management and maintain bend radii recommended by the equipment manufacturer. When installing in areas with strict fire-safety requirements, the LSZH sheath helps reduce hazardous smoke and halogen emissions.
