ACT DB7510 Cat6a S/FTP Networking Cable, 10 m, RJ-45, Red

The ACT DB7510 is a high-performance 10-meter Cat6a S/FTP networking cable engineered for demanding data environments. This premium patch cable supports data transfer speeds of up to 10,000 Mbit/s, making it an ideal solution for high-speed 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks. With its slimline design and robust construction, it provides a reliable connection while optimizing space in dense network cabinets.

Advantages

This cable features a sophisticated S/FTP double-shielding construction that effectively minimizes electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, ensuring signal integrity even in complex installations. The use of 50µ gold-plated RJ-45 contacts enhances conductivity and prevents corrosion over time. Its slim 4.5mm outer diameter significantly improves airflow within server racks compared to standard cables, while the LSZH jacket provides an essential safety feature by reducing toxic gas emissions in the event of a fire.

Suitable for

• High-speed 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks
• Professional server rooms and data centers
• Home office setups requiring stable connectivity
• Environments where cable management and airflow are critical
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications up to 30W

When it may not be suitable

Due to the 30AWG wire gauge, this cable may experience higher signal attenuation over long distances compared to thicker 22-28AWG cables. It is primarily intended for patch connections rather than long-distance permanent link installations.

Key specifications

• Length: 10 meters
• Standard: Cat6a S/FTP
• Data transfer rate: 10,000 Mbit/s
• Bandwidth: 500 MHz
• Connectors: RJ-45 Male to RJ-45 Male
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Wire gauge: 30AWG
• Contact plating: 50µ Gold

How to use

To use the ACT DB7510, simply insert the RJ-45 connector into the corresponding port on your network device, such as a switch, router, or patch panel, until you hear a click. The snagless design ensures the locking tab is protected during installation. Ensure the cable is not bent beyond its minimum bending radius to maintain optimal performance. For best results in a server rack, route the cable through cable management panels to maintain organized airflow.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required length for your specific setup
• Ensure your network hardware supports Cat6a standards
• Check if your environment requires LSZH compliance for fire safety
• Consider the slimline diameter for high-density rack installations

Usage recommendations

For optimal network performance, avoid running this cable parallel to high-voltage power lines to prevent potential interference. Regularly inspect the cable for physical damage and ensure connections are firmly seated in their ports.
