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

DIGITUS CAT 6 U-UTP Slim patch cables, 5 m length, red, pack of 10, are slim unshielded twisted-pair Ethernet leads designed for Gigabit Ethernet and structured cabling. With a reduced outer diameter and a flexible jacket, these cables simplify routing in patch panels, racks and confined office spaces while supporting standard network applications up to 1 Gbit/s at 250 MHz. Each cable includes molded strain relief and locking-lever protection to reduce connector damage during frequent use.

Advantages

The slim design with a total diameter of approximately 2.7 mm and stranded AWG 32/7 bare copper conductors offers high flexibility for easy installation in high-density environments. LSZH outer casing reduces smoke and toxic gas emission in case of fire. The cables comply with ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173 CAT 6 standards and are designed for reliable PoE and PoE+ operation thanks to pure copper conductors and defined electrical characteristics. Molded anti-kink sleeves and strain relief extend connector life and prevent locking-lever breakage.

Suitable for

• Office networks and structured cabling in racks and patch panels
• Server rooms and data cabinets with limited cable space
• Device interconnects such as switches, routers, patch panels and wall outlets
• Home networks where slim, flexible cabling is preferred

How to use

Connect one end of the RJ45 plug to the network device (switch, router, patch panel or wall outlet) and the other end to the corresponding port of the second device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the locking lever clicks to secure the connection. Route cables following patch panel and rack layout recommendations, avoiding sharp bends and keeping the bending radius at least 15 times the outer diameter. For PoE applications, verify device compatibility and power requirements before connecting.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid tight bundling with high-voltage power cables and maintain the recommended bending radius. Use cable management accessories in racks and patch panels to reduce mechanical stress on the molded strain relief and prolong service life. Store unused cables in their original packaging to prevent kinks and contamination.
