Patchkabel DIGITUS CAT6 U-UTP slank, 3 m, rood

DIGITUS CAT6 U-UTP Slim patch cable, 3 m, red is an unshielded twisted-pair Ethernet lead designed for Gigabit networks. Its slim 2.7 mm diameter and flexible LSZH jacket simplify routing through patch panels, cable trays and other confined spaces while maintaining CAT6 performance up to 250 MHz and speeds up to 1 Gbit/s. The cable uses stranded AWG 32/7 bare copper conductors with HD-PE insulation and is terminated with RJ45 plugs featuring a molded strain relief and locking lever protection.

Advantages

The reduced outer diameter and flexible construction reduce cable bulk and improve manageability in high-density installations. Compliance with ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173 CAT6 standards ensures consistent electrical performance. The LSZH jacket provides low smoke and zero halogen properties for safer operation in indoor environments. The cable supports PoE and PoE+ applications thanks to pure copper conductors and offers up to 750 mating cycles for reliable connector life.

Suitable for

• Workstation connections to switches and patch panels
• Office and home Ethernet cabling where space is limited
• High-density patch cabinets and structured cabling installations
• Power-over-Ethernet (PoE/PoE+) devices such as IP phones and access points

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to the network device or wall outlet and the other plug to the switch, router or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the locking lever clicks to secure the connection. Route the slim cable along cable management paths, avoiding sharp bends that exceed the specified bending radius. For PoE devices, verify the switch or injector supports the required PoE class before powering the device.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, maintain separation from high-voltage power cables and avoid tight loops or kinks. Use the slim cable for short to medium runs within patch cabinets, desks and office environments. Replace cables showing visible damage or degraded connectors to preserve network reliability.
