ACT zwarte 7 meter U/UTP CAT6 patchkabel met RJ45-stekkers

The ACT Black 7 meter U/UTP CAT6 patch cable with RJ45 connectors is a horizontal network cable designed for Ethernet connections in homes, offices and data closets. It supports 10/100/1000Base-T(X) cabling technology and provides a 7 m reach for flexible device placement. The cable is finished in black and uses gold-plated RJ45 connectors to ensure reliable contact and consistent signal transmission. U/UTP construction helps reduce external electromagnetic interference without individual pair shielding.

Advantages

This CAT6 patch cable delivers gigabit-capable performance suitable for typical wired LAN deployments. The 7 m length offers a balance between reach and tidy cable management across workstations, network switches and patch panels. Gold-plated RJ45 connectors improve corrosion resistance and contact quality, while the U/UTP design reduces noise from surrounding cables and equipment. The black jacket provides a discreet professional appearance that integrates with most office and home setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, laptops and workstations to switches or routers
• Patch panel to network switch connections in racks and cabinets
• Connecting networked printers, NAS devices and media players
• Temporary or permanent wiring in small office and home networks

Key specifications

• Cable category: CAT6 (suitable for gigabit Ethernet)
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded overall, unshielded pairs)
• Length: 7 m
• Connectors: RJ45 to RJ45 with gold-plated contacts
• Cabling standard: 10/100/1000Base-T(X)
• Colour: Black

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the Ethernet port of the device (PC, switch, router or NAS) and the other into the corresponding port on the opposite device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and keep it away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference such as large transformers or power supplies. For connections through patch panels or rack-mounted switches, leave enough slack for rearrangement and label both ends if managing multiple runs.

Recommendations

For stable gigabit performance, avoid kinking the cable and keep bend radius larger than the manufacturer’s minimum (typically several times the cable diameter). When installing near high-voltage power lines or motors, maintain physical separation to reduce potential interference. Replace the cable if connector contacts become loose or if the jacket is visibly damaged.
