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

The ACT CAT6A S/FTP Slimline Patch Cable is a high-performance networking solution designed for reliable data transmission in professional environments. Measuring 0.25 meters in length, this cable is engineered to support high-speed network connectivity while maintaining signal integrity through its S/FTP shielding. The slimline profile is specifically developed to optimize airflow and space management within crowded server racks and patch panels, making it an essential component for modern data centers and office network infrastructures.

Advantages

This patch cable offers significant benefits for high-density networking setups due to its reduced diameter, which allows for better cable management and improved airflow around active equipment. The inclusion of LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacketing ensures that the cable meets stringent safety standards by minimizing toxic emissions in the event of a fire. Furthermore, the snagless connector design protects the locking tab from breaking during installation or removal, ensuring a secure and long-lasting connection every time.

Suitable for

• High-density server racks and data centers
• Professional office network installations
• Connecting switches, routers, and patch panels
• Environments where space-saving cable management is required

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not intended for long-distance runs due to its short 0.25-meter length. It is also not suitable for outdoor applications or environments where the cable will be exposed to direct sunlight, moisture, or extreme mechanical stress, as it is designed primarily for indoor structured cabling.

Key specifications

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

How to use

To use the cable, simply insert the RJ45 connector into the corresponding port on your networking device or patch panel until you hear a click. The snagless design allows for easy insertion and removal without the risk of the locking tab catching on adjacent cables. Ensure that the cable is not bent beyond its minimum bend radius to maintain optimal performance and signal quality.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required length for your specific connection to ensure 0.25 meters is sufficient.
• Confirm that your networking hardware supports CAT6A standards for maximum speed.
• Check if your installation environment requires LSZH compliance for fire safety regulations.

Usage recommendations

For optimal network performance, avoid bundling the cable too tightly with power cords to prevent electromagnetic interference. Regularly inspect the connectors for dust or debris to ensure a stable connection.
