ACT zwart 3 meter F/UTP CAT5E patchkabel met RJ45-stekkers

The ACT Black 3 meter F/UTP CAT5E patch cable (IB7903) is a 3 m network cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, designed for wired connections between computers, switches, routers and other Ethernet-enabled devices. The cable uses foil shielding (F/UTP) and 26 AWG conductors to support reliable data transmission while maintaining a compact profile. The black LSZH sheath provides a professional appearance and low-smoke, halogen-free protection.

Advantages

This F/UTP CAT5E cable offers stable connectivity with RJ-45 connectors and 50 µ gold-plated contacts for improved corrosion resistance and signal transfer. The 26 AWG conductors balance flexibility and electrical performance, and the LSZH sheath reduces toxic smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire. Its 3 m length gives flexibility in device placement without excessive slack.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers to switches or routers
• Linking network equipment in home or small office setups
• Temporary or permanent patching in structured cabling runs

Key specifications

• Cable type: F/UTP CAT5E
• Length: 3 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 — both ends
• Conductor size: AWG 26
• Contact plating: 50 µ gold
• Sheath: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Colour: Black (Pantone Black C)

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of your device and the other into the corresponding port on a router, switch or modem. Ensure connectors click into place to confirm a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and compression; maintain the natural bend radius to preserve signal integrity.

Recommendations

For best performance, use the cable within its 3 m length for typical desktop and office layouts, keep it away from large sources of electromagnetic interference (power cables, transformers), and avoid excessive stretching or tight bends. Inspect connectors for damage before installation and replace the cable if the sheath or contacts show visible wear.
