ACT Bruin 2 meter LSZH U/FTP CAT6A datacenter slimline-patchkabel rastnasvrij met RJ45-stekkers

ACT Brown 2 meter LSZH U/FTP CAT6A datacenter patch cable is a slimline category 6A Ethernet cable designed for datacenter and network cabinet use. With a 2 m length, LSZH jacket and U/FTP shielding, the cable combines space-saving slim diameter with protection against electromagnetic interference. Snagless RJ45 connectors and gold-plated contacts enable reliable high-speed data transfer in critical network environments.

Advantages

The slimline design (approximately 3.8 mm diameter) reduces bending radius and improves airflow in server racks and network cabinets compared with regular CAT6A patch cords. U/FTP shielding provides enhanced protection against crosstalk and external interference. LSZH jacket reduces smoke and toxic emission in case of fire. Snagless RJ45 plugs and gold-plated contacts ensure secure connections and corrosion resistance.

Suitable for

• Datacenter patching and top-of-rack connections
• High-density network cabinets and server racks
• Applications requiring U/FTP shielding to reduce interference
• Deployments where low-smoke zero-halogen materials are required

Key specifications

• Cable type: CAT6A U/FTP
• Length: 2 m
• Diameter (approx.): 3.8 mm (slimline)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, snagless
• Contacts: Gold-plated
• Jacket: LSZH
• Color: Brown

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to the network device or switch and the other to the server or patch panel port. Route the slimline cable through cable management channels or along rack verticals to maintain airflow and minimize bend radius. Ensure connectors are fully inserted and latched to establish reliable contact. When replacing or reinstalling, avoid sharp bends and maintain manufacturer-recommended bending radius for best signal performance.

Recommendations

For PoE deployments, follow ACT guidance to limit bundled cables to a maximum of 24 in a single bundle to prevent excessive temperature rise. Note that using very thin conductors (for example 32 AWG) increases attenuation at higher frequencies; standard practice typically uses 22–26 AWG per ISO/IEC and TIA recommendations.
