ACT Roze 10 m LSZH U/UTP CAT6 datacenter slimline-patchkabel, rastnasbescherming met RJ45-stekkers

The ACT Pink 10m LSZH U/UTP CAT6 Slimline Patch Cable Snagless is a slim-diameter Category 6 Ethernet patch cord designed for data center and networking use. The cable uses U/UTP construction, comes in a 10 meter length, features snagless RJ45 connectors and a low-smoke, zero-halogen (LSZH) jacket. Its reduced diameter and lower bending radius improve airflow in server racks and network cabinets compared with regular CAT6 patch cords.

Advantages

The slimline 3.8 mm diameter cable occupies less space than standard 5.9 mm CAT6 cords, allowing denser cable routing and better rack airflow. Snagless RJ45 connectors protect the plug latch during installation. The LSZH jacket reduces harmful emissions in case of fire. Using 28 AWG conductors is supported, though it increases attenuation at higher frequencies; the cable remains suitable for common CAT6 applications when installed according to guidelines.

Suitable for

• Data center horizontal and patch cabling where space and airflow are critical
• Network cabinets and server racks with dense cable deployments
• Longer horizontal runs up to 10 meters within premises
• PoE deployments with recommended bundle limits

Key specifications

• Category: CAT6, U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair)
• Length: 10 meters
• Cable diameter: approximately 3.8 mm (slimline)
• Conductor gauge: 28 AWG
• Connector: RJ45 snagless
• Jacket: LSZH (low smoke zero halogen)
• Bending radius: reduced compared with standard CAT6 patch cords

How to use

Install the cable by inserting the snagless RJ45 plug into compliant network ports until the latch clicks. Route cables in rack and cabinet paths to preserve airflow; avoid sharp bends that exceed the cable's bending radius. For best performance, follow standard installation practices for CAT6 cabling and ensure terminations and patch panels are compatible with U/UTP CAT6 specifications.

Recommendations

For PoE applications, limit bundles to a maximum of 24 slimline cables to prevent excessive temperature rise; this helps keep the center cable temperature within 15 °C above ambient as advised by ANSI TSB-184-A and ACT guidance. Be aware that 28 AWG conductors increase attenuation at higher frequencies compared with thicker gauges, so account for distance and channel loss when planning high-speed links.
