Cable de red CAT 6 U-UTP fino, 1 m — DIGITUS

DIGITUS CAT 6 U-UTP Slim 1 m patch cable in black is a slim-profile Ethernet lead designed for Gigabit networks and high-density cabling environments. The cable meets CAT 6 performance up to 250 MHz and uses stranded AWG 32/7 pure copper conductors in an unshielded twisted-pair (U-UTP) configuration. With a reduced outer diameter and flexible jacket, this 1 metre cable is intended for connections between switches, patch panels and network interface cards in offices, data centres and home networks.

Advantages

The slim 2.7 mm diameter and flexible jacket make routing and installation easy in confined spaces and on crowded patch panels while preserving CAT 6 transmission characteristics suitable for 1 Gbit/s. Molded connectors include strain relief and locking lever protection to reduce the risk of damage at the plug. The cable is PoE/PoE+ capable thanks to pure copper conductors and complies with international structured cabling standards for consistent performance.

Suitable for

• Patch connections between switches and patch panels in office networks
• Home network connections between routers, switches and network devices
• High-density cabling racks and data centre patch fields
• Power over Ethernet (PoE/PoE+) deployments with compatible devices

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the network device (switch, router or NIC) and the other connector into the corresponding port of the patch panel or switching equipment. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the locking tab engages and avoid excessive bending near the connector. Route the slim cable through cable management channels or ties, respecting the minimum bending radius to maintain signal integrity and prolong service life.

Recommendations

For best results in high-density installations, use the slim DIGITUS CAT 6 U-UTP cable to reduce bundle diameter and improve airflow. Verify that connected PoE devices conform to the supported power class and avoid routing the patch cable parallel and close to sources of strong electromagnetic interference. Inspect connectors periodically and replace the cable if the locking tab or strain relief shows visible damage.
