ACT Oranje 1,5 m LSZH SFTP CAT6A patchkabel, rastnasenvrij met RJ45-stekkers

The ACT Orange 1.5m LSZH SFTP CAT6A Patch Cable with snagless RJ45 connectors is a shielded network lead designed for reliable high-speed data transmission in home and office installations. The 1.5 metre length provides a compact connection between devices, while the S/FTP shielding and gold-plated contacts support improved signal integrity and reduced electromagnetic interference. The LSZH jacket minimises the emission of toxic gases in case of fire, making the cable suitable for installations in confined or poorly ventilated environments. The orange colour makes the cable easy to identify within cable bundles and racks.

Advantages

The cable’s S/FTP design (overall foil shield with individually braided drain wires for each pair) helps protect against crosstalk and external interference, enabling stable performance over CAT6A frequencies. Snagless RJ45 connectors reduce the risk of tab breakage during installation or removal, and gold-plated contacts improve contact reliability and corrosion resistance. The LSZH jacket reduces harmful smoke and halogen emissions compared with standard PVC-sheathed cables, which is beneficial for use in enclosed spaces where safety standards prioritise low-toxicity materials.

Suitable for

• Connecting network devices in office desktop and server rack environments
• Short runs between switches, routers and patch panels in data closets
• Home network connections where a compact, identifiable cable is needed
• Installations in poorly ventilated or safety-sensitive locations requiring LSZH materials

Key specifications

• Cable category: CAT6A, supports 10 Gbps network speeds over suitable infrastructure
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually braided shields per pair)
• Length: 1.5 m
• Connector type: RJ45 to RJ45, snagless design
• Contacts: gold-plated contacts for improved conductivity and corrosion resistance
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Colour: Orange

How to use

Route the ACT CAT6A patch cable between the two network ports to be connected, ensuring that the cable is not bent sharply near the connectors and that strain is avoided at connection points. Insert the RJ45 plug fully until the latch clicks to secure the connection; the snagless design protects the locking tab during insertion and removal. For best performance, use with CAT6A-compliant switches, patch panels and network equipment, and avoid running the cable parallel and close to high-voltage power lines to reduce electromagnetic interference.

Recommendations

For reliable long-term operation, maintain bend radius limits recommended for CAT6A cables, avoid tight staples or cable ties that compress the jacket, and keep patch runs short and tidy in patch panels to preserve signal integrity. Use the orange colour to label or visually separate specific circuits or VLANs in multi-cable installations. Choose LSZH-specified routing in areas with limited ventilation or where building codes require low-smoke materials.
