ACT oranje 5 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6 datacenter slimline patchkabel trekontlastingvrij met RJ45-stekkers

The ACT DC9105 is a 5 m Cat6 U/UTP slimline networking cable with gold-plated RJ-45 connectors designed for high-speed data transmission in home, office and datacenter environments. With a reduced diameter compared to regular Cat6 patch cords, this cable offers a smaller bending radius and improved airflow in server racks and network cabinets while maintaining Cat6 performance over typical link lengths.

Advantages

The slimline 3.8 mm diameter construction reduces cable bulk and improves rack airflow compared with standard 5.9 mm Cat6 cords. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors provide reliable contact and corrosion resistance. U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair) Cat6 specification supports high-speed Ethernet while keeping the cable flexible and compact. The orange jacket provides clear visual identification.

Suitable for

• Patching switches and patch panels in data centers and network cabinets
• Horizontal cabling in office and home networks
• High-density installations where reduced cable diameter and improved airflow are required

Key specifications

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end of the ACT DC9105 to a network device (switch, router or NIC) and the other end to the corresponding port on the patch panel or device. Route the cable through the rack or cable tray, observing the reduced bending radius for slimline cables to avoid sharp bends. For best signal performance, avoid running the cable parallel and close to high-voltage power lines.

Recommendations

Although Cat6 standards typically reference 22–26 AWG, this slimline cable uses thinner 28 AWG conductors which can increase attenuation at higher frequencies. For Power over Ethernet (PoE) deployments, limit bundle sizes to a maximum of 24 cables as advised by ACT to prevent excessive temperature rise; ANSI TSB-184-A limits temperature increase of the center cable in a bundle to less than 15 °C above ambient.
