The DIGITUS Patch cord CAT 6 U/UTP LSZH, 1 m, red, is a Category 6 patch cable designed for structured networks and compliant with ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 standards. The cable features copper conductors, RJ-45 connectors with transparent red plugs for quick identification, and an LSZH sheath to minimize smoke and hazardous halogen emissions in case of fire. Performance is tested up to 250 MHz and the cable is PoE+ ready.

Advantages

The DIGITUS CAT 6 patch cord offers tested Category 6 performance up to 250 MHz including NEXT characteristics, a molded boot with kink protection and strain relief, and a latch guard to protect the connector clip from breaking. LSZH sheath provides improved fire behaviour and low smoke emissions, while the transparent red connector enables easy visual identification of Category 6 cabling.

Suitable for

• Ethernet network connections in offices and data closets
• PoE/PoE+ powered devices such as IP phones and access points
• Connections between switches, patch panels and wall outlets
• Environments where LSZH materials are required for fire safety

How to use

Plug the RJ-45 connectors into the corresponding Ethernet ports on network devices, patch panels or wall outlets until the latch clicks into place. Route the 1 m patch cord to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain; the molded boot provides kink protection and strain relief. Use the red transparent connector to distinguish Category 6 links from other cabling during installation and maintenance.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, avoid bending the cable sharply near the connector, keep the cable away from high-power electrical lines to reduce interference, and choose LSZH cabling in enclosed public or commercial spaces where low smoke and halogen-free materials are preferred.
