ACT Green 10 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6 datacenter slimline patch cable snagless with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Green 10 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6 datacenter slimline patch cable is designed to provide efficient network connectivity in high-density environments. With a reduced diameter of 3.8mm compared to standard 5.9mm patch cords, this cable offers a smaller bending radius and improved airflow within server racks and network cabinets. It features snagless RJ45 connectors with gold-plated contacts to ensure reliable performance and ease of installation.

Advantages

The slimline design significantly optimizes space in crowded network environments, allowing for better cable management and increased airflow, which helps maintain optimal equipment temperatures. The use of Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket material enhances safety by reducing smoke emission in the event of a fire. Furthermore, the snagless connector design prevents the locking tab from breaking during installation or removal, ensuring a secure connection over time.

Suitable for

• High-density data centers
• Server racks and network cabinets
• Indoor network installations requiring fire safety compliance
• Environments where space optimization is critical

When it may not be suitable

This 28 AWG cable may experience higher signal attenuation at higher frequencies compared to standard 22-26 AWG cables. Therefore, it is not recommended for long-distance runs or applications where maximum signal integrity at extreme frequencies is required.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 10 meters
• Cable type: CAT6 U/UTP
• Diameter: 3.8 mm
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Connector type: RJ45 with snagless design
• Contacts: Gold-plated

How to use

To install, simply insert the RJ45 connector into the corresponding network port on your switch, router, or patch panel until it clicks into place. The snagless design allows for easy insertion and removal without the risk of the tab catching on other cables. Ensure the cable is routed neatly through cable management systems to maintain the benefits of the slimline design and airflow.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required length for your specific network layout
• Check if your equipment supports 28 AWG cable specifications
• Ensure the bundle size does not exceed 24 cables when using Power over Ethernet (PoE) to prevent overheating

Usage recommendations: When deploying this cable in Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications, limit the bundle size to a maximum of 24 cables to ensure that the temperature increase remains within the safety limits defined by the ANSI TSB-184-A standard.
