ACT zwarte 0,5 meter U/UTP CAT6 patchkabel met RJ45-stekkers

The ACT Black 0.5m U/UTP CAT6 RJ45 patch cable is a short, high-performance network cable designed for reliable Ethernet connections in home, office and data center environments. Featuring RJ45 connectors with gold-plated contacts and U/UTP (unshielded/overall shield) construction, the cable supports 10/100/1000Base-T(X) networking and delivers stable data transmission with reduced interference. The 0.5 m length and black jacket make it suitable for neat, space-conscious installations where a short patch lead is required.

Advantages

The cable combines CAT6 performance with compact length, providing gigabit-capable throughput in a low-profile assembly. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts enhance contact reliability and corrosion resistance, while the U/UTP cabling structure helps limit external electromagnetic interference. The black outer jacket offers a professional appearance and better concealment in racks and workstations.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches and patch panels in server racks or small network closets
• Linking desktop PCs, VoIP phones and network printers to nearby ports
• Short interconnects behind wall-mounted equipment or within media cabinets
• Temporary test and troubleshooting connections where minimal slack is desired

Key specifications

• Cable category: CAT6
• Cabling standard: 10/100/1000Base-T(X)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts

How to use

Insert each RJ45 connector firmly into the corresponding Ethernet port until the latch clicks to establish a secure connection. Use the 0.5 m length for direct patching between adjacent ports, behind equipment, or for tidy connections in confined spaces. Avoid sharp bends at the connector ends and do not exceed the recommended bend radius to maintain signal integrity. For permanent installations, verify link status and network speed after connecting.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this CAT6 patch cable for gigabit Ethernet links up to the specified length and keep it away from strong EMI sources such as large motors or fluorescent ballast transformers. When routing multiple cables, maintain gentle curves and avoid excessive tension on the connectors to prolong cable life.
