ACT CAT6A U/FTP LSZH Slimline patch cable 1.5 m with RJ45 90° left to straight, black

ACT CAT6A U/FTP LSZH slimline patch cable, 1.5 m, designed for high‑speed 10GbE networks and space‑constrained installations. The cable uses a slim 3.8 mm diameter jacket and U/FTP (shielded twisted pairs) construction to reduce crosstalk and maintain performance at high frequencies. It is fitted with one 90° angled (left) RJ45 connector and one straight RJ45 connector, features full copper 32AWG conductors and 50 µ gold‑plated contacts, and has a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) outer jacket for reduced toxic smoke in case of fire.

Advantages

The slim 3.8 mm diameter reduces bundling volume and improves airflow in server racks and network cabinets compared with standard thicker CAT6A patch cords. The U/FTP shielding and full copper 32AWG conductors provide stable 10GbE performance and lower interference. The combination of a 90° angled left and a straight RJ45 connector allows installation in confined spaces without compromising the cable's bend radius. The LSZH jacket minimizes the release of corrosive or toxic gases if the cable is exposed to fire.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections in data centers and server rooms
• Patching between switches, patch panels and servers in network cabinets
• Installations behind equipment or in shallow cable channels where space is limited

When it may not be suitable

This slimline patch cable is not suitable where extreme mechanical ruggedness is required; its smaller diameter and thinner profile make it less suitable for harsh, high‑abrasion environments or frequent heavy flexing. It is intended for structured cabling and patching rather than direct burial or industrial outdoor use.

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6A (U/FTP/STP)
• Cable length: 1.5 m
• Conductor: solid/full copper, 32 AWG
• Connector types: RJ45 90° angled (left) to RJ45 straight
• Contact plating: 50 µ gold‑plated contacts
• Outer jacket diameter: 3.8 mm
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Colour: Black

How to use

Plug the straight RJ45 connector into the device or switch port and insert the 90° angled connector into the patch panel, wall outlet or equipment port where clearance is limited. Ensure connectors are fully seated and that bends near the connectors respect the cable's minimum bend radius to maintain signal integrity. Use appropriate cable management within racks and panels to avoid excessive stress on the cable and connectors.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm required cable length (1.5 m) and connector orientation (90° left to straight)
• Verify that a slim 3.8 mm diameter cable fits the intended cable channels or cable management
• Ensure Cat6A U/FTP shielding and LSZH jacket meet site and safety requirements

Usage recommendations

Use this ACT CAT6A U/FTP LSZH slimline patch cable for short, high‑speed links inside racks and cabinets where space and airflow are priorities; avoid using it in environments requiring heavy mechanical protection or outdoor exposure.
