ACT Blauw 7 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6 Datacenter Slimline patchkabel met RJ45-stekkers

The ACT Blue 7 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6 datacenter slimline patch cable is designed for reliable wired network connections in datacenter and network cabinet environments. This 7 m patch cord uses U/UTP CAT6 construction with slimline cable geometry to reduce diameter and improve rack airflow. It is LSZH-rated for low smoke and halogen-free operation and fitted with snagless RJ45 connectors with gold-plated contacts to ensure consistent mating and signal transfer.

Advantages

The slimline design reduces cable diameter compared with standard CAT6 patch cords, enabling higher density installations and improved ventilation inside server racks. LSZH jacket material lowers smoke and toxic gas emissions in case of fire, making the cable suitable for installations with stringent safety requirements. Snagless RJ45 connectors protect the plug latch during routing and handling, while gold-plated contacts promote corrosion resistance and reliable signal contact.

Key specifications

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to the network device (switch, router or server) and the other RJ45 plug to the corresponding port on the patch panel or network outlet. Route the slimline cable through cable managers or horizontal managers to maintain tidy cable runs and preserve the reduced bending radius. Avoid tight bends close to the connector and secure the cable with appropriate ties or Velcro straps to prevent strain on the plug.

Recommendations

For PoE deployments follow ACT guidance and limit bundled PoE cables to a maximum of 24 to control temperature rise. While 28 AWG slimline constructions are acceptable, they have higher attenuation at elevated frequencies compared with 22–26 AWG cables; plan link lengths and channel performance accordingly. Use slimline patch cords to improve rack airflow and maintain recommended bend radii to preserve signal integrity.
