ACT zwart 1,5 meter U/UTP CAT6 patchkabel met RJ45-stekkers

The ACT Black 1.5m U/UTP CAT6 RJ45 patch cable is a 1.5 metre network cable designed for wired Ethernet connections up to 1 Gbps. It features RJ45 connectors with gold-plated contacts to improve conductivity and reduce corrosion. The cable uses unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) construction optimized for 10/100/1000Base-T(X) applications, offering a compact black jacket that fits residential and office environments.

Advantages

The cable provides reliable gigabit Ethernet performance with low attenuation across standard LAN frequencies. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts enhance signal transfer and durability. The U/UTP design balances flexibility and noise immunity for typical indoor installations, while the 1.5 m length reduces excess cable clutter and simplifies routing in desk- or rack-level connections.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers, switches and routers within home and small office networks
• Linking networked devices such as printers, network-attached storage (NAS) and media players
• Short patch runs in wiring cabinets, wall plates and office desks
• Replacement or upgrade of older Cat5e patch cables to support gigabit speeds

Key specifications

• Cable length: 1.5 m
• Connector type: RJ45 to RJ45
• Cabling standard: 10/100/1000Base-T(X)
• Cable category: CAT6
• Construction: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair)
• Colour: Black
• Data rate support: Up to 1 Gbps over suitable equipment

How to use

Insert each RJ45 connector into the corresponding network port on devices such as a router, switch or computer until the locking latch clicks into place. Ensure both connected devices support the intended Ethernet speed; auto-negotiation will typically select the highest mutually supported rate. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress, and avoid running it parallel to power cables where possible to minimize potential interference.

Recommendations

For best results, use the cable for short to medium horizontal patching within cabinets, desks and workstations. Verify device link lights after connection and keep cable bends above the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. When planning larger installations, consider using shielded or higher-category cables where environmental noise or longer distances require improved performance.
