Cavo patch slim DIGITUS CAT6A F-FTP, 7 m, grigio, RJ-45–RJ-45, 10 Gbit/s

slim patch cord DIGITUS CAT6A F-FTP, 7 m, grey, RJ-45–RJ-45, 10 Gbit/s is a slim, shielded Cat6A patch cable designed for high-speed network connections in space-constrained environments. The cable features F/FTP (foil-shielded pair) construction, RJ-45 plugs on both ends and meets ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173 channel requirements. With a total diameter of approximately 3.8 mm and a flexible LSZH jacket, it is suitable for data centers, high-density racks and home offices where reliable 10 Gbit/s transmission and reduced electromagnetic interference are required.

Advantages

The DIGITUS slim patch cord combines a small outer diameter and flexible jacket for easy installation in confined spaces while maintaining Cat6A performance up to 500 MHz. F/FTP shielding reduces crosstalk and external interference. Molded anti-kink sleeves with strain relief and locking lever protection prevent plug damage and ensure long service life. The cable is PoE+ capable and meets flame retardancy and smoke emission standards for safer installations.

Suitable for

• Data centers and server racks
• High-density patch panels and network cabinets
• Office LANs and structured cabling
• Home offices and multimedia setups

How to use

Connect the RJ-45 plugs to compatible Ethernet ports on switches, patch panels, network interfaces or PoE power sources. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the locking tab engages. Route the slim cable through cable management or trays where space is limited, observing the minimum bending radius (15 × OD) and avoiding sharp edges. The LSZH jacket reduces hazardous smoke in case of fire and supports installations in public or commercial buildings where low-smoke cables are required.

Recommendations

For reliable 10 Gbit/s performance, use the DIGITUS slim patch cord within structured cabling channels that comply with Cat6A installation guidelines and avoid exceeding the specified bending radius or repeated excessive flexing. For PoE applications, verify device power requirements against PoE/PoE+ specifications.
