## Long description

The DIGITUS Installation Cable DK-1616-VH-5 U/UTP Cat.6 500m in purple is a solid-conductor network cable designed for structured cabling in commercial and residential buildings. It uses a single unshielded twisted-pair configuration (U/UTP) with AWG 23/1 solid conductors and a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSOH) outer sheath suitable for indoor installation. Supplied on a 500 m reel, the cable supports Cat.6 performance for fast Ethernet and gigabit networking while offering a visually distinctive purple jacket for easy identification in complex cable runs.
Advantages
This Cat.6 installation cable combines AWG 23/1 solid conductors with a U/UTP design to provide consistent signal transmission and reduced insertion loss over horizontal and vertical runs. The LSOH jacket reduces smoke and hazardous gas emission in the event of fire, making the cable appropriate for indoor environments where low toxicity is required. The 500 m reel format simplifies deployment and storage, and the purple color aids in cable identification and organization without affecting electrical characteristics.
Suitable for
Structured cabling for offices, data closets and server rooms
Horizontal and vertical network installations within buildings
Gigabit Ethernet and fast Ethernet connections
Environments requiring LSOH materials for safety compliance

How to use
Unwind the required length from the reel and cut cleanly before terminating with appropriate Cat.6 RJ45 connectors or punching down into keystone jacks and patch panels rated for solid AWG 23 conductors. Maintain proper bend radius during installation to preserve Cat.6 performance and follow building codes for routing and securing cables. Use cable management accessories such as trays, ties and labels to keep runs organized and to prevent excessive mechanical stress on the conductor.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance, pair termination and testing to Cat.6 standards using a network tester after installation. Avoid running the cable in close parallel alongside high-voltage power lines to minimize electromagnetic interference. Store the reel horizontally and protect ends from moisture and debris until termination.
