DIGITUS asennuskaapeli Cat6A U/UTP, AWG 23/1, LSOH, B2ca, 500 m kela

DIGITUS Cat6A installation cable U/UTP is a high-performance network cable for structured cabling and Ethernet links. It uses solid AWG 23/1 conductors, a U/UTP construction and a low-smoke zero-halogen (LSOH) outer jacket, and is supplied on a 500 m reel. The cable meets B2ca fire classification for enhanced fire safety and is intended for installations such as data centers, office networks and backbone cabling that require Cat6A performance.

Advantages

The cable provides Cat6A performance suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and reduced alien crosstalk through its U/UTP design. Solid AWG 23/1 conductors offer stable signal transmission over longer permanent links, while the LSOH jacket lowers toxic fumes and smoke in case of fire. Supplied on a 500 m reel, it simplifies long runs and professional installation planning.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet horizontal and backbone cabling
• Data center rack-to-rack and patch panel connections
• Office structured cabling and permanent link installations
• Environments where low-smoke zero-halogen materials are required

When it may not be suitable

The cable is a U/UTP type (unshielded pairs inside an overall unscreened jacket) and may not be ideal where individual pair screening is required to mitigate very high electromagnetic interference. Likewise, for flexible patch cords or short moveable connections, stranded conductors are typically preferred over solid AWG 23/1 conductors.

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6A
• Construction: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pairs, overall unscreened)
• Conductor: solid AWG 23/1
• Jacket material: LSOH (low smoke zero halogen)
• Fire rating: B2ca
• Length: 500 m reel
• Typical use: permanent link and structured cabling

How to use

Plan cable routes and lengths appropriate for permanent links or backbone runs, then install the cable from the 500 m reel to patch panels, keystone jacks or termination blocks. Use proper cable management and bend-radius practices during routing. Terminate the solid AWG 23/1 conductors with suitable keystone jacks or patch panels designed for Cat6A solid cabling, and verify performance with appropriate certification tools after installation.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the need for solid AWG 23/1 conductors versus stranded cables for patch cords.
• Ensure B2ca fire rating and LSOH jacket meet local building and safety regulations.
• Verify reel length (500 m) fits installation planning and storage constraints.
• Assess whether U/UTP construction is sufficient for the electromagnetic environment.

Recommendations

Use this DIGITUS Cat6A U/UTP cable for permanent horizontal and backbone installations where Cat6A performance and LSOH fire safety are required; terminate with connectors and panels rated for Cat6A solid conductors and certify each run after installation.
