ACT DB7600 Cat6a S/FTP Network Cable, 0.5 m, RJ-45, Blue

The ACT DB7600 is a high-performance 0.5-meter Cat6a S/FTP network cable engineered for demanding professional networking environments. Designed to support data transfer speeds of up to 10,000 Mbit/s, this cable provides a reliable and stable connection for critical infrastructure. Its slimline design and high-quality construction make it an essential component for maintaining efficient and organized network setups.

Advantages

This patch cable features a slimline construction with an outer diameter of only 4.5mm, which significantly improves airflow within server racks and network cabinets compared to standard cables. The use of full copper 30AWG wires combined with 50µ gold-plated RJ-45 contacts ensures optimal signal integrity and durability. Furthermore, the LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket enhances safety by minimizing the release of toxic gases in the event of fire or short circuits, making it a responsible choice for modern data centers.

Suitable for

• Connecting servers, switches, and routers in data centers
• High-speed office network installations
• Environments requiring improved cable management and airflow
• Applications supporting Power over Ethernet (PoE) up to 30W

When it may not be suitable

This 0.5-meter cable is specifically designed for short-distance connections within racks or cabinets and is not suitable for long-distance runs between rooms or buildings. Additionally, because it utilizes 30AWG wire, it may experience higher signal attenuation at very high frequencies compared to thicker standard cables, which should be considered for specialized high-frequency applications.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 0.5 meters
• Standard: Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP)
• Data transfer rate: 10,000 Mbit/s (10 Gigabit Ethernet)
• Bandwidth: 500 MHz
• Connector type: RJ-45 (Male to Male)
• Contact plating: 50µ gold
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Cable diameter: 4.5 mm
• Power over Ethernet: Supported up to 30W

How to use

To use the ACT DB7600, simply insert the RJ-45 connector into the corresponding port on your networking hardware, such as a switch, patch panel, or server. The snagless design allows for easy insertion and removal without the risk of the locking tab breaking. Ensure the cable is routed neatly through cable management systems to maintain the benefits of the slimline design and to keep the airflow in your rack unobstructed.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 0.5-meter length is sufficient for your specific connection path.
• Ensure your networking equipment supports Cat6a standards to achieve maximum performance.
• Check if your installation environment requires LSZH-rated cables for fire safety compliance.

Usage recommendations: For optimal performance and longevity, avoid bending the cable beyond its minimum radius and ensure that the connectors are kept free of dust and debris. Regularly inspect the cable for signs of physical damage to maintain network reliability.
