ACT oranje 10 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6 datacenter slimline patchkabel, trekontlastingvrij met RJ45-stekkers

ACT Orange 10 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6 datacenter slimline patch cable with snagless RJ45 connectors and gold-plated contacts is designed for high-density network environments. The slimline CAT6 cable has a reduced diameter (3.8 mm) compared with regular CAT6 patch cords, improving airflow in server racks and network cabinets while supporting high-speed data transmission with minimal interference. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire, making it suitable for data centers and other enclosed spaces where safety is important.

Advantages

The slimline U/UTP CAT6 construction lowers the bending radius and takes up less space, which helps organize high-density cabling and enhances rack airflow. Snagless RJ45 connectors protect the plug latch during installation; gold-plated contacts provide reliable electrical contact and corrosion resistance. The LSZH outer jacket limits harmful emissions in case of combustion. The cable follows CAT6 performance characteristics while offering a smaller physical profile than standard 5.9 mm cables.

Suitable for

• Data center patching and high-density rack installations
• Network cabinets and server rooms where improved airflow is required
• Structured cabling runs between switches, patch panels and servers
• Environments requiring low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) materials

How to use

Connect one RJ45 end to the network device (switch, patch panel or server) and the other end to the corresponding port. Route the slimline CAT6 cable through cable management channels or horizontal/vertical organizers, taking advantage of the reduced diameter to minimize congestion. Ensure connector latches are protected during insertion and removal by the snagless design. Verify link status on connected devices and test performance with appropriate network testers if required.

Recommendations

Although ISO/IEC and TIA standards typically reference 22–26 AWG for patch cords, 28 AWG slimline cables can be used; expect higher attenuation, especially at higher frequencies. For PoE deployments, ACT recommends bundling no more than 24 slimline cables to avoid excessive temperature rise. Follow ANSI TSB-184-A guidance: the temperature increase for the center cable in a bundle should remain less than 15 °C above ambient.
