ACT rosso 0,25 m LSZH U/FTP CAT6A patch cable slimline per data center, senza linguette con connettori RJ45

The ACT Red 0.25m LSZH U/FTP CAT6A patch cable is a slimline data center cable engineered for high-speed network connections in confined spaces. With a reduced diameter compared to regular CAT6A cords, the 32 AWG slim cable supports improved rack airflow and a smaller bending radius while maintaining U/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors for reliable connectivity.

Advantages

The slimline 3.8 mm diameter cable occupies less space in cabinets and trays, enabling better airflow and denser cable routing compared with standard 5.9 mm CAT6A cords. U/FTP shielding reduces crosstalk and external interference. The short 0.25 m length and snagless design simplify installations in tight patching scenarios. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts provide stable electrical contact and corrosion resistance.

Suitable for

• Short patching between switches and servers in data centers
• Tight rack and cabinet installations where space and airflow matter
• High-speed Ethernet links requiring Cat6A performance with U/FTP shielding
• PoE deployments with limited bundle sizes (see usage recommendations)

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6A
• Shielding: U/FTP (overall unshielded with individually foiled pairs)
• Cable diameter: approx. 3.8 mm (slimline)
• Conductor: 32 AWG
• Length: 0.25 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Jacket: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Colour: Red

How to use

Insert the RJ-45 connectors into the network equipment ports until they click in place. Use the 0.25 m length for short patch connections inside racks or between adjacent devices. Avoid sharp bends at the connector boots and maintain the recommended bending radius for slimline cables to prevent damage. Ensure connectors are fully seated and strain is not applied to the cable during and after installation.

Recommendations

For PoE applications, limit bundled slimline cables to a maximum of 24 cables to control temperature rise. Because the 32 AWG conductors have higher attenuation than standard 24 AWG cords, use shorter permanent link lengths when designing links to accommodate increased signal loss, especially at higher frequencies.
