Câble patch DIGITUS CAT 6 U-UTP fin 0,5 m, noir

DIGITUS CAT 6 U-UTP Slim 0.5 m patch cable, black, is a short Ethernet lead designed for gigabit networks where space is limited. The cable follows CAT 6 specifications with unshielded twisted pair construction and stranded copper conductors, providing reliable 1 Gbit/s transmission and operation up to 250 MHz. Its reduced outer diameter and flexible jacket make it suitable for neat installations at patch panels, switches, routers and in high-density or confined environments.

Advantages

The slim outer diameter of approximately 2.7 mm and a flexible LSZH jacket enable easy routing in tight spaces and reduce cable bulk in dense installations. Stranded AWG 32/7 bare copper conductors ensure good flexibility while maintaining signal integrity for Ethernet applications up to 1 Gbit/s. Molded anti-kink sleeves with strain relief and locking lever protection increase durability and reduce the risk of connector damage during frequent patching.

Suitable for

• Patching between switches, routers and wall outlets in offices and data closets
• High-density patch panels and server cabinets where slim cables save space
• Home networks and multimedia connections requiring short, flexible leads
• PoE and PoE+ deployments that use standard copper conductors

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to the network device (switch, router or patch panel) and the other plug to the corresponding port on the target device. Ensure the locking tab is correctly engaged and routed to avoid excessive bending at the connector. For installations in patch panels or racks, guide the slim cable along cable management channels or tie points without compressing the jacket; observe the minimum bending radius during routing to maintain performance.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this CAT 6 U-UTP slim cable in short reach connections (such as patching and interconnects) and avoid sharp bends or kinks. Keep cable runs within intended length and environmental temperature limits, and verify PoE/PoE+ power requirements with the powered device when used in power-over-Ethernet applications.
