ACT rood 10 m LSZH U/FTP CAT6A datacenter slimline patchkabel met RJ45-stekkers

The ACT Red 10 meter LSZH U/FTP CAT6A datacenter slimline patch cable with snagless RJ45 connectors is designed for high-speed data transmission in datacenter and network cabinet environments. Its slimline construction (approximately 3.8 mm diameter) reduces cable bulk compared with standard CAT6A patch cords, improving airflow and cable management while maintaining CAT6A U/FTP shielding and LSZH jacket for low smoke and halogen-free performance.

Advantages

The slim 3.8 mm diameter lowers the bending radius and saves rack space compared with regular 5.9 mm CAT6A cords. Snagless RJ45 connectors with gold-plated contacts ensure reliable mating and signal integrity. The LSZH jacket reduces toxic fumes in case of fire, making the cable suitable for sensitive or enclosed installations. U/FTP shielding provides protection against alien crosstalk and electromagnetic interference.

Suitable for

• Datacenter rack and network cabinet patching
• High-density installations where space and airflow are critical
• 10 Gbps Ethernet and other high-speed network links requiring CAT6A performance
• Environments that require LSZH-rated cabling

Key specifications

• Length: 10 m
• Cable type: U/FTP CAT6A, slimline (≈3.8 mm diameter)
• Jacket: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Connectors: RJ45 to RJ45, snagless, gold-plated contacts
• Colour: Red

How to use

Connect one RJ45 connector to the network switch or patch panel port and the other to the server or endpoint device. Route the slimline cable through rack cable management channels or vertical organizers to benefit from reduced bend radius and improved airflow. Avoid sharp bends and maintain manufacturer-recommended bend radius for best performance.

Recommendations

ISO/IEC and TIA standards typically reference 22–26 AWG for patch cords; this slimline design uses much thinner conductors which can increase attenuation, especially at higher frequencies. For PoE deployments, ACT advises limiting bundle sizes to a maximum of 24 cables to prevent excessive temperature rise. ANSI TSB-184-A limits temperature increase for the centre cable in a bundle to less than 15 °C above ambient; follow these guidelines when planning PoE installations.
