Patchkabel DIGITUS CAT 6 U-UTP slank 0,5 m, blauw, 10-pack

DIGITUS CAT 6 U-UTP Slim 0.5 m patch cable set contains ten slim unshielded twisted-pair Ethernet leads in blue, each 0.5 m long. Designed for Gigabit Ethernet, these CAT6 cables provide transmission up to 1 Gbit/s and support frequencies to 250 MHz. The reduced outer diameter and flexible sheath make the slim patch cables suitable for dense cable routing, compact patch panels and short interconnections between switches, patch panels and network ports in offices or data racks. The cables use stranded AWG 32/7 bare copper conductors and meet ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173 CAT 6 requirements. Each lead features a molded anti-kink sleeve with strain relief and locking lever protection to reduce wear and prevent connector damage.

Advantages

The slim 2.7 mm diameter and high flexibility allow easy installation in confined spaces and high-density racks without compromising CAT6 performance. Supports PoE and PoE+ thanks to pure copper conductors. Manufactured to international cabling standards for reliable interoperability in structured networks. Molded strain relief and locking lever protection improve durability and reduce the risk of connection failures during frequent mating cycles.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between switches and patch panels in office and data center racks
• High-density cabling environments where thin cable profile is required
• Home networks and small office setups requiring Gigabit Ethernet
• PoE and PoE+ powered devices within short link distances

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to the network port of a switch, patch panel or device and the other plug to the corresponding port to establish a short Ethernet link. For best performance, use straight-through wiring and follow the EIA/TIA 568B pin assignment. Avoid tight bends below the specified bending radius and do not crease the cable; the molded strain relief helps protect the connector during insertion and removal. Ensure ports and connected devices support Gigabit speeds and PoE if powering devices over the cable.

Recommendations

Use these slim CAT 6 patch cables for short interconnects where space is limited and cable management density is important. Do not run the cables parallel to high-voltage power lines to minimize interference. Replace cables that show visible damage or degraded connector latching to maintain reliable network performance.
