ACT Wit 0,25 m LSZH U/UTP CAT6 datacenter slimline patchkabel met rastbescherming en RJ45-stekkers

The ACT White 0.25m LSZH U/UTP CAT6 patch cable with snagless RJ45 connectors is a slimline data center Ethernet cable designed for short interconnections. With a 0.25 m length and reduced diameter compared with standard CAT6 patch cords, this cable supports improved airflow in racks and cabinets while providing U/UTP construction and gold-plated contacts for reliable signal transmission.

Advantages

The slim 3.8 mm diameter reduces bundle volume and allows a smaller bending radius, which helps optimise cable routing and increases airflow inside server racks. The snagless RJ45 connectors protect the plug latch during installation. LSZH jacket material minimises toxic smoke in case of fire. The cable meets CAT6 performance expectations, although using 28 AWG conductors can cause higher attenuation at higher frequencies compared with thicker gauges.

Suitable for

• Short-distance patching in data centers and network cabinets
• High-density rack environments where airflow optimisation is required
• Connections between switches, patch panels and servers

How to use

Insert each RJ45 connector firmly into the corresponding network port on switches, patch panels or devices until the latch clicks. Route the cable along designed pathways in the rack or cabinet, observing the reduced bending radius to avoid sharp bends. For PoE deployments, follow bundle size guidance to manage cable temperature.

Recommendations

For PoE applications ACT advises a maximum bundle size of 24 slimline cables to limit temperature rise; the ANSI TSB-184-A standard recommends the centre cable temperature increase remain below 15 °C above ambient. Consider using these slimline cables where airflow and space savings are priorities, and avoid long runs where higher attenuation from 28 AWG conductors could affect signal quality.
