Patch Cord Digitus CAT 6A S/FTP DK-1644-A-0025/BL 0.25m

The DIGITUS Patch Cord CAT 6A S/FTP DK-1644-A-0025/BL is a high-performance 0.25 m network cable designed for professional installations that require Category 6A (Class EA) performance up to 500 MHz. The cable uses copper conductors and S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference, and its LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket improves fire safety by producing minimal smoke and no halogen gases in case of fire. The connector features a transparent yellow-colored plug with metal shielding for easy identification of Category 6A and reliable signal integrity.

Advantages

This DIGITUS CAT 6A patch cord is manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 6A specifications, ensuring compliance with international channel requirements. The cable is PoE+ ready and tested for performance characteristics including NEXT up to 500 MHz. Each cable has a molded boot with kink protection, strain relief and an integrated latch protector to prevent the latching lever from breaking. The short 0.25 m length provides a tidy connection between closely located devices.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, patch panels and network devices in data cabinets
• Short patch connections in crowded racks and high-density installations
• PoE+ powered devices such as access points and VoIP phones
• Installations requiring LSZH jackets for improved fire safety

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to your network device (switch, patch panel or NIC) and the other plug to the corresponding port on the opposite device. Ensure the molded boot is seated properly to provide strain relief and avoid sharp bending at the connector. For best performance, keep the cable length within recommended limits for patch cabling and avoid tightly coiling the cable or placing it near strong electromagnetic sources.

Usage recommendations

Use this short DIGITUS CAT 6A S/FTP patch cord for tidy intra-rack connections where high-frequency, shielded performance is required. Select LSZH cabling in environments where low smoke and non-halogen emissions are mandated by safety regulations.
