ACT blauw 20 meter U/UTP CAT6-patchkabel met RJ45-stekkers

The ACT Blue 20 meter U/UTP CAT6 patch cable is a 20 m network cable with RJ-45 connectors designed for reliable gigabit Ethernet connections. Its CAT6 construction supports 10/100/1000Base-T(X) cabling technology and is intended for use in home, office and data cabinet environments where a fixed-length, visible connection is required. The cable’s blue jacket provides easy identification in cable runs while the U/UTP design helps reduce external interference for consistent data transfer.

Advantages

This CAT6 patch cable offers stable high-speed data transmission up to gigabit Ethernet rates and is compatible with standard RJ-45 network interfaces. The 20 m length enables flexible placement of network devices without intermediate patch panels or extenders. U/UTP construction reduces electromagnetic interference from nearby cables and equipment, and the gold-plated contacts on the RJ-45 connectors improve contact reliability and corrosion resistance over time.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers in home or small office networks
• Wiring network devices in server rooms and network cabinets where a visible, fixed-length cable is acceptable
• Connecting IP cameras, printers and network storage to a gigabit switch
• Temporary or semi-permanent network runs for events, testing or installations

Key specifications

• Cable length: 20 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Cabling technology: 10/100/1000Base-T(X) (CAT6)
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair with overall unshielded jacket)
• Colour: Blue

How to use

Uncoil the cable straight and avoid tight bends to prevent damage to the internal twisted pairs. Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network port until the latch clicks. For best performance, connect the cable directly between devices supporting 10/100/1000Base-T(X) speeds. Avoid routing the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines or close to large electrical equipment to minimize interference. When storing, coil the cable loosely to preserve its shape and performance.

Recommendations

For optimal gigabit performance, use compatible network equipment and avoid running the cable alongside mains wiring or near sources of strong electromagnetic noise. Regular visual inspection of connectors and the jacket will help identify wear or damage; replace the cable if the connector latch or jacket integrity is compromised.
