ACT CAT5E F/UTP LSZH litze-patchkabel rood 500 m kabellengte 500 m

The ACT CAT5E F/UTP LSZH stranded patch cable in red is a 500 m spool intended for indoor network installations. It provides standard Cat5e performance with four twisted pairs of stranded copper conductors and an overall aluminium foil (F/UTP) shielding. The LSZH jacket reduces toxic fumes in case of fire, and the red colour makes cable runs easy to identify.

Advantages

The cable combines Cat5e data transmission capabilities with F/UTP shielding to reduce external electromagnetic interference. Its stranded copper conductors improve flexibility for patching and short-run connections. The LSZH outer sheath lowers smoke and halogen emissions, meeting safety needs for indoor environments. Supplied on a 500 m reel, it suits larger installations and structured cabling projects.

Suitable for

• Indoor LAN patching and horizontal cabling
• Data and voice connections in offices and server rooms
• Environments where low smoke and zero halogen materials are required
• Colour-coded cable management and identification

How to use

Measure and cut the required cable length from the 500 m reel, taking care when removing the outer jacket to avoid nicking the conductors or shield. Terminate the stranded pairs with compatible RJ45 connectors or keystone jacks rated for stranded conductors and shielded cables; ensure the aluminium foil is properly bonded to maintain the shielding continuity. Use standard Cat5e wiring schemes (T568A or T568B) for terminations.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines and maintain recommended bend radius during installation. Use appropriate cable management and grounding for the shielded cable. Confirm that connected hardware supports Cat5e speeds and that LSZH jacket meets local safety requirements.
