ACT CAT6A S/FTP Slimline Patch Cable, 0.25m, LSZH, Red, RJ45

The ACT CAT6A S/FTP Slimline Patch Cable is a high-performance networking component designed for professional environments where space is at a premium. Measuring 0.25 meters in length, this red cable provides a reliable connection for high-speed data transmission. It features advanced S/FTP shielding to minimize electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, ensuring signal integrity in demanding network infrastructures. The slimline design allows for better airflow and easier cable management in crowded server racks and patch panels.

Advantages

This patch cable offers significant benefits for high-density networking setups. The slimline construction reduces bulk, making it easier to route cables in tight spaces while improving overall cabinet ventilation. The S/FTP shielding provides superior protection against external interference, which is essential for maintaining stable 10Gbps performance. Furthermore, the LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket enhances safety by reducing toxic smoke emissions in the event of a fire, making it a responsible choice for modern data centers and office buildings.

Suitable for

• High-density data center environments
• Professional office network installations
• Connecting switches, routers, and patch panels
• Compact server racks where space management is critical

This cable may not be suitable for long-distance connections due to its 0.25-meter length. It is also not intended for outdoor use or environments where the cable will be subjected to extreme physical stress, moisture, or direct sunlight, as it lacks the ruggedized outer shielding required for such conditions.

Key specifications

• Cable category: CAT6A
• Shielding type: S/FTP (Screened Fully Shielded Twisted Pair)
• Length: 0.25 meters
• Connector type: RJ45
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Color: Red
• Design: Slimline snagless

To use this cable, simply insert the RJ45 connector into the corresponding port on your networking device until you hear a click. The snagless design ensures that the locking tab is protected during installation and removal, preventing accidental breakage. Ensure that the cable is not bent beyond its minimum bend radius to maintain optimal performance.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required length for your specific connection to ensure 0.25 meters is sufficient.
• Confirm that your network hardware supports CAT6A standards for optimal speed.
• Check if your environment requires LSZH-rated cables for fire safety compliance.

Usage recommendations: Regularly inspect the cable connections for dust or debris to maintain signal quality. Avoid pulling the cable by the cord; always grip the connector housing when disconnecting to prolong the lifespan of the cable.
