Patchkabel Digitus CAT 6 U/UTP LSZH DK-1617-0025/Y

The Digitus CAT 6 U/UTP LSZH patch cord (DK-1617-0025/Y) is a 0.25 m network cable designed for structured cabling and Ethernet connections up to 1000 Mbit/s. It uses copper conductors and RJ-45 connectors, is PoE+ ready, and features a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) sheath for reduced smoke and halogen-free behavior in case of fire. The connector is transparent red for clear identification of Category 6 performance while the cable jacket is bright yellow for easy visual recognition.

Advantages

The cable is manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 6 specifications with guaranteed performance up to 250 MHz, including parameters such as near end crosstalk (NEXT). A molded boot provides kink protection, strain relief and latch protection to reduce the risk of connector damage. The LSZH sheath improves safety for indoor installations by reducing smoke and toxic gases.

Suitable for

• Structured cabling in offices and data centers
• Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000Base-T)
• Power over Ethernet applications (PoE+)
• Short patch connections and equipment interconnects (0.25 m)

How to use

Connect the RJ-45 plugs to compatible Ethernet ports on switches, patch panels or devices. Ensure the latch engages and that the molded boot rests against the connector to provide strain relief. Use the 0.25 m length for short patching between adjacent ports or for tidy cabinet connections. Verify link speed and PoE functionality after installation.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force on the cable. Use the yellow color and transparent red connector to keep patching organized by category. Install in indoor environments where LSZH properties are required for improved fire-safety compliance.
