Patch cable ACT CAT6A U/UTP LSZH Slimline 0.25 m with RJ45 90° angled connectors, black

ACT CAT6A U/UTP LSZH Slimline patch cable, 0.25 m long, equipped with RJ45 connectors on both ends with 90° angled up heads and gold‑plated contacts. The slimline design has a reduced outer diameter compared with standard CAT6A cables, which lowers the bend radius and improves airflow in server racks and network cabinets. The cable uses unshielded twisted pair wiring (U/UTP) compliant with ANSI/TIA‑568.2‑D, and the LSZH jacket limits smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire.

Advantages

The slim 3.6 mm outer diameter saves space and enhances cabinet ventilation while maintaining Cat6A performance. Both ends have 90° angled up RJ45 connectors to facilitate connections in tight spaces without stressing the cable bend radius. The cable features full copper 28 AWG conductors, 50 µm gold‑plated RJ45 contacts and is 100% tested to ensure reliable high‑speed Ethernet links. The LSZH jacket reduces the risk of toxic gas concentration if the cable is exposed to fire.

Suitable for

• Patching in dense server racks and network cabinets
• Connections behind 1U equipment and narrow spaces
• Short jumper links in data centers and telecom rooms

When it may not be suitable

This unshielded (U/UTP) Cat6A cable is not intended for environments with high electromagnetic interference where shielded cabling would be required. It is also designed for short patch runs (0.25 m) and therefore not suitable as a long permanent link between distant network points.

How to use

Route the slimline patch cable through the rack or cabinet, ensuring the 90° angled plugs align with rear or side ports to avoid sharp bends. Insert the RJ45 connectors into the corresponding network ports until the latch clicks. For neat cabling, use horizontal managers or Velcro ties and avoid exceeding the cable's minimum bend radius when dressing the cable.

What to consider before purchase

• Required connector orientation and port clearance in your equipment
• Whether an unshielded cable meets EMI conditions in the installation area
• Needed cable length — this product is a short 0.25 m patch cord

Usage recommendations

Use this slimline Cat6A U/UTP LSZH patch cable for short rack-mounted connections where space is limited; match connector orientation to port placement and avoid tight bends to preserve performance.
