The DIGITUS DN-93906 is a
shielded modular coupling of category
Cat 6A, specifically designed for use in network infrastructures. It connects two RJ45 plugs together and is intended for mounting in patch panels, particularly in 19-inch enclosures with a mounting length of 483 mm. The coupling enables a stable and high-quality connection for data transmission, with the socket wiring configured 1:1, ensuring direct signal forwarding without rerouting.
Applications
This modular coupling is suitable for use in professional networks where high data rates and low signal interference are required. It is commonly used in data centers, office buildings, or during the cabling of IT infrastructures, where multiple devices are connected via a patch panel. The
shielded design protects data transmission from electromagnetic interference and ensures reliable signal transmission, especially in environments with high electromagnetic noise.
Functions and Features in Detail
The coupling features two RJ45 sockets directly connected to each other. The
360-degree shielding contact ensures that the shielding contact runs along the entire circumference of the sockets, providing optimal protection against EMI (electromagnetic interference). The coupling is designed for
solid and stranded conductors in the 22–26 AWG range, allowing flexible use with various cable types. The coupling is silver in color, offering a neutral and professional appearance.
Technology Explained Simply
The
Cat 6A classification means the coupling is designed for a maximum bandwidth of up to 500 MHz, meeting the requirements for 10GBase-T transmission. This corresponds to a data rate of 10 gigabits per second over the network cable. The
shielded design (Shielded) ensures signals are not affected by external interference, which is especially important at high data rates. Shielding is achieved through a metallic sheathing that blocks electromagnetic fields.
Compatibility and Accessories
The coupling is intended for mounting in empty fields of patch panels and can be directly inserted into the designated openings. It is compatible with standard RJ45 connectors and can be connected to Cat 6A or Cat 6 cables. Use in a 19-inch rack is standard, as the mounting length of 483 mm complies with common standards.
Installation and Mounting
Mounting is done by inserting the coupling into the designated openings of a patch panel module. No additional fastening or tools are required, as the coupling features a snap-in mechanism that enables secure and quick installation. Installation is typically performed by specialists in network cabling.
Operational Advantages
The coupling provides a reliable and durable connection that meets the requirements of modern networks. The
shielded construction and
high bandwidth ensure stable data transmission, even over longer distances. The direct 1:1 socket wiring prevents errors in signal forwarding. The coupling is designed for professional environments and supports requirements for high availability and performance.
