ACT White 10 meter LSZH U/FTP CAT6A datacenter slimline patch cable snagless with RJ45 connectors

The ACT White 10 meter LSZH U/FTP CAT6A datacenter slimline patch cable with snagless RJ45 connectors is a slim-diameter Ethernet cable designed for high-speed data transmission in datacenters and network cabinets. Its reduced outer diameter (approximately 3.8 mm) and U/FTP shielding help improve airflow in racks while providing protection against crosstalk. The cable uses RJ45 connectors with gold-plated contacts and is made from LSZH (low-smoke zero-halogen) material to reduce toxic and corrosive emissions in the event of fire.

Advantages

The slimline CAT6A design lowers cable bulk compared with standard CAT6A patch cords, enabling a smaller bending radius and denser routing in server racks. U/FTP shielding offers improved alien crosstalk protection compared with unshielded alternatives. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts ensure reliable connections and corrosion resistance. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and halogen emissions, making the cable suitable for enclosed or public spaces where low-smoke materials are preferred.

Suitable for

• Datacenter patching and top-of-rack connections
• High-density cable runs in server racks and network cabinets
• Environments where low-smoke zero-halogen jacket is required
• Applications requiring standard RJ45 connectivity for 10GBASE-T and other Ethernet links

How to use

Install the slimline patch cable by inserting the RJ45 connectors into the appropriate ports on switches, patch panels or servers until the latch clicks. Route the cable along cable management paths, taking advantage of the reduced diameter for denser bundling and improved airflow. Avoid tight bends beyond the cable’s bending radius and ensure connectors are not forced into angled ports. For PoE deployments, follow bundle size guidance to limit temperature rise.

Usage recommendations

ISO/IEC and TIA standards typically specify 22–26 AWG patch cords; slimline cables may use thinner conductors (for example, down to 32 AWG) which increases attenuation at higher frequencies. For PoE, ACT advises a maximum bundle size of 24 slimline cables to keep temperature rise within safe limits; ANSI TSB-184-A limits the center-cable temperature increase to less than 15 °C above ambient.
