ACT Paars 0,25 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6 datacenter slimline patchkabel snagless met RJ45-stekkers

The ACT Purple 0.25m LSZH U/UTP CAT6 Patch Cable Snagless RJ45 (MPN DC9352, EAN 8716065510584) is a slimline Category 6 patch cord designed for data center and network cabinet use. With a reduced outer diameter of approximately 3.8 mm compared to typical 5.9 mm CAT6 cords, this 0.25 m cable helps improve airflow inside server racks. The cable uses LSZH (low-smoke zero-halogen) jacket material, a U/UTP (unshielded/undercut) construction and snagless RJ45 connectors with gold-plated contacts for reliable connections and reduced connector damage risk.

Advantages

The slimline 3.8 mm diameter reduces cable bulk and allows a tighter bend radius than regular patch cords, contributing to improved rack airflow and space efficiency. Use of 28 AWG conductor size (smaller than 22–26 AWG cited in ISO/IEC and TIA standards) enables a thinner cable profile, though it increases attenuation at higher frequencies. The LSZH jacket reduces toxic and corrosive emissions in case of fire, and the snagless RJ45 boots protect the connector clip for easier handling in dense installations.

Suitable for

• Data center patching and short interconnects within racks and cabinets
• High-density network panels and cable managers where space and airflow matter
• PoE deployments with small bundle sizes (see specifications and recommendations)

Key specifications

• Length: 0.25 m
• Category: CAT6 (U/UTP, slimline)
• Conductor gauge: commonly 28 AWG (smaller diameter than standard 22–26 AWG)
• Outer diameter: approx. 3.8 mm
• Connector: Snagless RJ45 with gold-plated contacts
• Jacket: LSZH (low-smoke zero-halogen)
• Brand / MPN / EAN: ACT / DC9352 / 8716065510584

How to use

Install the patch cable by inserting the snagless RJ45 connectors into compatible network ports on switches, patch panels or devices. Avoid sharp bends beyond the cable’s bend radius; route the cable through managers or tray space to maintain airflow. For best performance, keep cable lengths short in patching scenarios and ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch engages.

Recommendations

For Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications, limit bundle sizes to a maximum of 24 slimline cables to avoid excessive temperature rise. Note that thinner 28 AWG conductors increase attenuation—particularly at higher frequencies—so use these slimline CAT6 cables for short-distance, high-density patching rather than long horizontal runs where larger-gauge cables are preferred.
