Cavo patch DIGITUS CAT6 U-UTP sottile, 5 m, nero

DIGITUS CAT6 U-UTP Slim patch cable, 5 m, black is an unshielded twisted‑pair Ethernet patch lead designed to meet CAT6 performance requirements. With a slim outer diameter and flexible jacket, the 5-metre cable connects routers, switches, patch panels and network devices in home and office environments where space is limited. The cable supports transmission frequencies up to 250 MHz and data rates up to 1 Gbit/s, and is constructed with stranded bare copper conductors and RJ45 connectors with molded strain relief.

Advantages

The slim design (approx. 2.7 mm total diameter) and flexible LSZH jacket allow easy routing in dense cabling areas, behind furniture and inside patch panels. The cable complies with ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173 CAT6 standards and offers PoE/PoE+ capability thanks to pure copper conductors. Integrated anti-kink sleeves, locking lever protection and a robust RJ45 plug increase longevity and reduce the risk of connector damage during installation and daily use.

Suitable for

• Connecting routers, switches and network devices in home networks
• Patch panels and high-density cabling racks in offices
• Workspace environments with limited cable routing space
• Power over Ethernet (PoE / PoE+) powered devices such as IP phones and cameras

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to the network device (router, switch, patch panel or end device) and the other RJ45 plug to the corresponding port on the opposite device. Ensure the locking tab engages to secure the connection and route the cable following existing cable management paths to avoid tight bends. For installations in patch panels or racks, guide the slim cable through cable guides or clips to maintain the recommended bending radius and prevent mechanical strain on the plug or conductors.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, avoid excessive bending or tight knots and maintain the minimum bending radius of 15× the outer diameter. Use the cable in environments within the specified temperature range and keep it away from strong electromagnetic interference sources where possible. The LSZH jacket is recommended for indoor use and areas where low smoke emissions are required.
