DIGITUS patchkabel - Cat 5e - SF/UTP - Snagless - 15 m - grijs

The Digitus CAT 5e SF/UTP RJ-45 15m grey network cable is a Category 5e patch cord designed and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 standards. It supports channel performance up to 100 MHz and includes SF/UTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference. The molded boots provide kink protection, strain relief and a protective latch cover to prevent damage to the latching lever. The transparent blue coloured plug enables easy identification of Category 5e connectors.

Advantages

This CAT 5e patch cord is manufactured to Category 5e (Class D) specifications, delivering verified performance including near-end crosstalk (NEXT) up to 100 MHz. SF/UTP shielding improves signal stability in environments with potential interference. Molded boots with strain relief and latch protection increase connector durability and reduce the risk of accidental breakage. The 15 m cable length allows flexible placement between networked devices.

Suitable for

• Ethernet connections in home and small office networks
• Patch panels and switches requiring Cat5e cabling
• Applications where moderate EMI protection is needed
• Connecting routers, computers, printers and network devices over longer runs

Key specifications

• Standard: ISO/IEC 11801, DIN EN 50173 Category 5e (Class D)
• Frequency range: up to 100 MHz
• Cable type: SF/UTP
• Connectors: RJ-45 — both ends
• Length: 15 m
• Colour: Grey (transparent blue plug)

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to your network device (switch, router, patch panel or computer) and the other plug to the corresponding port. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and heavy compression; use cable management to prevent strain on connectors. For optimal performance, maintain separation from strong electrical noise sources where possible.

Recommendations

Use this Cat5e SF/UTP cable for standard Ethernet links up to 100 MHz. For networks requiring higher bandwidth or future-proofing to Gigabit+ over longer runs, consider using Cat6 or higher category cables.
