Patch kábel CAT6 U-UTP tenký, DIGITUS DK-1618-020S-B, 2 m, modrý

DIGITUS CAT6 U-UTP slim patch cable DK-1618-020S-B, 2 m in blue is an unshielded twisted pair network cable designed for Gigabit Ethernet and structured cabling in homes and offices. The cable meets CAT6 performance up to 250 MHz and features a reduced outer diameter and flexible jacket for easy routing in confined spaces. Manufactured to international cabling standards, it includes molded strain relief and locking lever protection on RJ45 plugs to reduce the risk of connector damage during installation and use.

Advantages

The slim 2.7 mm diameter and flexible LSZH jacket allow space-saving installation in high-density cable runs and narrow conduits while maintaining CAT6 transmission characteristics for up to 1 Gbit/s. Stranded AWG 32/7 bare copper conductors provide flexibility and durability for frequent handling and patch-panel work. Compliance with ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173 ensures predictable performance in structured LAN environments, and the molded anti-kink sleeve with strain relief protects the RJ45 connection during standard use.

Suitable for

• Patch connections between switches, routers and patch panels in office networks
• Workstation and desktop network connections in home and small office LANs
• High-density cabling areas and rack installations with limited space
• PoE and PoE+ powered devices such as IP phones, cameras and access points

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug of the patch cable to the Ethernet port of a switch, router, patch panel or network device and the other plug to the corresponding port on the target device. Ensure connectors click into place to confirm a secure mechanical and electrical connection. Route the slim cable through cable organizers, trunking or conduit as required, observing the minimum bending radius to avoid kinking. For PoE devices, verify the network equipment supports the required PoE class before powering.

Recommendations

To maintain CAT6 performance, avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling force during installation, keep the cable separate from high-voltage power lines to reduce interference, and use the slim cable in areas where space is limited or many parallel runs are required. Regularly inspect connectors for wear if frequently re-mating the cable.
