Digitus CAT 6A S/FTP DK-1644-A-005/R patch kábel

The DIGITUS Patch cord CAT 6A S/FTP DK-1644-A-005/R is a 0.5 m high-performance Ethernet patch cable designed for modern network infrastructure. Constructed with copper conductors and S/FTP shielding, it supports category 6A performance up to 500 MHz and is PoE+ capable. The cable features an LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath for improved fire behaviour and low smoke emissions, and a transparent yellow-coloured plug with metal shielding for easy Category 6A identification.

Advantages

The cable is manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 6A specifications, ensuring compliance with ISO & EN channel requirements. Performance is verified up to 500 MHz, including characteristics such as near-end crosstalk (NEXT). Each patch cord has a molded boot with kink protection, strain relief and a latch protector to prevent latch lever breakage. S/FTP shielding provides enhanced protection against electromagnetic interference and supports reliable high-speed data transmission.

Suitable for

• Short interconnections in patch panels, switches and wall outlets
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links within a structured cabling channel
• Power over Ethernet applications up to PoE+
• Environments where low-smoke zero-halogen cabling is required

Key specifications

• Standard: Category 6A (Class EA), ISO/IEC 11801, DIN EN 50173
• Bandwidth: up to 500 MHz
• Length: 0.5 m
• Conductor: Copper (Cu)
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil + individually shielded pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 – both ends, metal-shielded
• Sheath: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Colour: Red (cable) with transparent yellow connector for identification
• PoE support: PoE+

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network device (switch, patch panel or wall outlet) and the other plug to the corresponding device port. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks and check that the molded boot and strain relief sit flush to avoid sharp bends at the connector. For reliable performance, avoid tight bends and heavy mechanical stress on the cable during installation and routing.

Recommendations

For optimal channel performance, use this 0.5 m patch cord within a properly installed Cat 6A structured cabling system and follow channel layout guidelines. Keep patch cord lengths appropriate for your rack or cabinet layout to reduce unnecessary insertion loss and maintain proper bend radius to preserve shielding effectiveness.
