ACT DB7905 Cat6a S/FTP Network Cable 5m RJ-45 Black

The ACT DB7905 is a high-performance 5-meter Cat6a S/FTP network cable engineered for reliable data transmission at speeds up to 10 Gbit/s. This slimline patch cable features advanced S/FTP shielding to minimize electromagnetic interference, ensuring stable and secure connectivity for demanding professional networking environments. With its durable construction and gold-plated connectors, it provides a dependable link for high-speed data transfer in both office and home setups.

Advantages

This cable offers superior performance through its high-quality full copper 30AWG wiring and 50µ gold-plated RJ-45 contacts, which guarantee excellent signal integrity. The slimline design, featuring an outer diameter of only 4.5mm, significantly improves cable management and airflow within dense server racks or network cabinets. Furthermore, the inclusion of a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket enhances safety by reducing the emission of toxic gases in the event of fire or short circuits, making it a responsible choice for modern infrastructure.

Suitable for

• Connecting high-speed network switches and routers
• Linking computers to local area networks
• High-density server rack environments
• Professional office and home networking setups
• Applications requiring Power over Ethernet (PoE) up to 30W

When it may not be suitable

Due to the 30 AWG wire gauge, this cable may experience higher attenuation at very high frequencies compared to standard 22-28 AWG cables. It is primarily intended for patch connections rather than long-distance permanent installations where maximum signal reach is critical.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 5 meters
• Standard: Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP)
• Data transfer rate: Up to 10 Gbit/s
• Bandwidth: 500 MHz
• Connectors: RJ-45 straight male with 50µ gold plating
• Jacket material: Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH)
• Wire gauge: 30 AWG full copper
• Outer diameter: 4.5 mm
• Color: Black

How to use

To use the ACT DB7905, simply insert the RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network port on your device, such as a switch, router, or computer, until you hear a click. The snagless design allows for easy insertion and removal without the risk of the locking tab breaking. Ensure the cable is not bent beyond its minimum radius to maintain optimal performance and signal quality. The slim profile allows for organized routing through cable management panels or tight spaces within your network cabinet.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 5-meter length is sufficient for your specific connection path
• Confirm that your network equipment supports Cat6a standards for optimal speed
• Ensure the 30 AWG cable meets your specific attenuation requirements for high-frequency applications
• Check that the RJ-45 interface is compatible with your hardware ports

Usage recommendations: For the best performance, avoid sharp bends or excessive tension on the cable. Regularly inspect the connectors for dust or debris to ensure a clean, stable connection. When routing in server racks, utilize cable ties to maintain the improved airflow benefits provided by the slimline design.
