ACT Rosa 5 m LSZH U/UTP CAT6 cavo patch slimline datacenter con protezione linguetta e connettori RJ45

ACT Pink 5m LSZH U/UTP CAT6 patch cable with snagless RJ45 connectors is a slimline CAT6 Ethernet patch cord designed for data centers and network cabinets. The cable has a reduced diameter (3.8 mm) compared with regular CAT6 patch cords, which lowers the minimum bending radius and improves airflow in server racks. It uses U/UTP construction and meets CAT6 performance expectations while featuring LSZH jacket material and gold-plated contacts for reliable signal transmission. The cable is 5 m long and finished in pink for easy identification.

Advantages

The slim 3.8 mm diameter reduces cable bulk and supports denser routing in patch panels and cabinets, contributing to better ventilation and cable management. Snagless RJ45 connectors protect the clip during installation and removal. Gold-plated contacts ensure consistent contact quality. The LSZH jacket minimizes hazardous smoke and toxic gases in case of fire. While the cable uses 28 AWG conductors, it still conforms to CAT6 category performance over typical link lengths, though attenuation increases at higher frequencies compared with thicker conductors.

Suitable for

• Data centre patching and high-density rack installations
• Network cabinets where improved airflow is required
• Office or structured cabling requiring color-coded identification
• Short to medium length CAT6 Ethernet links (up to 5 m)

How to use

Route the ACT Pink 5m LSZH U/UTP CAT6 patch cable between patch panels, switches or network devices as required, avoiding sharp bends and tight kinks to maintain performance. Insert RJ45 connectors firmly into the ports until the clip engages; use the snagless boots to protect the clips during installation and removal. For best results, keep the cable length to the stated 5 m and avoid running alongside high-power electrical cabling to minimize interference.

Recommendations

If used in Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications, limit bundles to a maximum of 24 cables to avoid excessive temperature rise. The ANSI TSB-184-A guidance recommends that the temperature increase for the center cable in a bundle remain below 15 °C above ambient. Consider using larger-gauge cables for very long runs or high-power PoE deployments to reduce attenuation and heat buildup.
