Digitus CAT 6A F-FTP Bendable Patch Cable Copper 0.3m Gray 10 Pieces

The DIGITUS CAT 6A F-FTP bendable patch cable (0.3 m) is a slim, high-performance copper patch lead designed for reliable 10 Gbit/s data transmission in confined installation environments. Its small outer diameter and a molded, bendable grommet with locking lever protection allow effortless routing around corners and in high-density cabling scenarios. Manufactured to ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173 CAT 6A standards, the cable is PoE+ ready and tested up to 500 MHz to meet channel performance requirements.

Advantages

The cable’s angled and slim design enables easy installation in tight spaces and around corners while the LSZH outer jacket minimizes smoke and halogen emissions. A molded bendable kink protection with strain relief and locking lever protection prevents plug damage and kinking. CAT 6A performance up to 500 MHz and compliance with relevant international standards ensure dependable transmission quality for demanding network applications.

How to use

Route the 0.3 m DIGITUS bendable patch cable between devices, patch panels or switches, using the slim, angled profile to guide the cable through tight spaces and around corners. Insert the RJ45 plugs into the corresponding ports until the locking lever engages; the molded grommet with locking lever protection reduces the risk of lever breakage. Ensure proper strain relief and avoid bending the cable beyond the specified bending radius to maintain performance.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use this CAT 6A patch cable in short patching scenarios inside racks or at workstations and follow channel planning rules to preserve the tested performance up to 500 MHz. Avoid sharp bends and excessive mechanical stress; maintain ambient temperatures within the specified range.
