Patch Cable Digitus CAT 5e SF/UTP DK-1531-020/G 2m Green

The DIGITUS Patch cord CAT 5e SF/UTP DK-1531-020/G is a 2 m networking cable with RJ-45 connectors and S/FTP shielding, designed to meet Category 5e (100 MHz) performance requirements. The cable uses copper conductors and features a transparent blue connector with metal shielding for easy identification of Category 5e. It is PoE ready and suitable for structured cabling and standard network connections.

Advantages

The patch cord is manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and DIN EN 50173 Category 5e standards, ensuring compliance with ISO & EN channel specifications. Its S/FTP construction and copper conductors provide reliable signal transmission with tested performance up to 100 MHz, including NEXT characteristics. Each connector has a molded boot with kink protection, strain relief and a latch protection to reduce the risk of latch breakage. The green cable color helps visual organization while the transparent blue, metal-shielded plug allows quick Category 5e identification.

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug of the patch cord to the network device (switch, patch panel or router) and the other plug to the target device (computer, VoIP phone, printer). Ensure plugs are fully inserted until the latch engages. Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid tight kinks; use the molded boot's strain relief to protect the connector. For installations in cabinets or racks, place cables to avoid excessive pressure on connectors and maintain bend radius according to standard cabling practice.

Recommendations

Use this 2 m DIGITUS CAT 5e SF/UTP patch cord for short links within racks or between nearby equipment. For longer runs or higher performance requirements, select higher-category cables (Cat6/Cat6A) and verify channel design against installation standards.
