ACT Zwart 2 m U/FTP CAT6A LSZH Slimline-patchkabel met RJ45-stekkers 90° haaks omlaag naar recht

ACT CAT6A U/FTP LSZH Slimline patch cable, 2 m, is a shielded Cat6a connection cable with a reduced outer diameter jacket (3.8 mm) designed for high-density data centre and network cabinet use. It is fitted with a straight RJ45 connector on one end and a 90° angled (down) RJ45 connector on the other, uses full copper 32AWG conductors and 50 µ gold‑plated contacts, and supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet while maintaining signal integrity in structured cabling environments.

Advantages

The slimline construction with a 3.8 mm jacket reduces cable bulk and improves airflow in server racks and network cabinets. The U/FTP shielding and full copper conductors provide stable transmission and reduced interference. The combination of a straight and a 90° down angled RJ45 connector enables neat, space-saving routing behind equipment and inside patch panels without compromising bend radius. The LSZH jacket material lowers the risk of concentrated toxic fumes in case of fire.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

The slim 3.8 mm cable diameter is beneficial for tight spaces but may be less robust to mechanical abrasion compared with thicker industrial patch cords. It is not intended as a permanent in-wall installation cable; it is designed for patching and interconnect use. If a specific angled orientation other than 90° down is required, alternative connector orientations (up, left, right) should be chosen.

Key specifications

How to use

Route the patch cable between network devices such as switches, patch panels and servers, plugging the straight RJ45 end or the 90° down angled end as required to achieve the desired cable exit direction. Avoid sharp bends beyond the recommended bend radius and secure the cable within cable management features to maintain airflow and reduce strain on the connectors. Use in rack and cabinet patching for 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections where shielded cabling is required.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

For best results in dense rack installations, use the 90° down connector to route cables directly along rack posts or patch panel edges, maintain gentle bends, and leave clearance for airflow. Test connections after installation to verify 10 Gigabit link stability.
