ACT S/FTP CAT6A B2ca PoE++ 100W prefab installation cable 30m, RJ45 male–female (FB0130)

The ACT S/FTP CAT6A B2ca PoE++ 100W prefab installation cable 30m, RJ45 male–female (FB0130) is a pre-terminated solid conductor network cable intended for structured cabling installations. This 30 metre blue cable is built to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet and Power over Ethernet up to 100 W (4PPoE / PoE++). It features S/FTP shielding, full copper 23 AWG conductors and 50 µ gold-plated RJ45 contacts terminated using IDC technology. The cable is CPR Euroclass B2ca rated for use in high-risk environments and complies with relevant wiring standards for commercial and technical installations.

Advantages

The prefab design eliminates field termination and reduces installation time since RJ45 connectors are factory-attached; no special tools or termination experience are required. Shielding and solid copper conductors deliver stable high-speed data transmission and consistent power delivery for 4PPoE 100 W applications. The Euroclass B2ca fire rating and conformity with international cabling standards ensure the cable meets safety and performance requirements for demanding installations.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet backbones and horizontal runs in structured cabling
• Power over Ethernet deployments up to 100 W (4PPoE / PoE++), including PoE type 4 devices
• Installations in data centres, server rooms and commercial buildings requiring high fire-safety ratings
• Plug-and-play connections where pre-terminated, solid installation cables speed up deployment

When it may not be suitable

This solid conductor prefab cable is intended for fixed installation runs and is not designed for frequent flexing or use as a patch cord in high-movement desk or equipment areas. For short patching scenarios inside patch panels or for repeated flexing, stranded patch cables are a more appropriate choice. Also, if bespoke connector types or custom lengths are required beyond the offered pre-terminated options, on-site termination or alternative products may be necessary.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 30 m
• Conductor type: solid copper, 23 AWG
• Shielding: S/FTP (individual foil around pairs + overall shield)
• Connector interfaces: RJ45 male (straight) to RJ45 female (straight), 50 µ gold-plated contacts
• PoE support: 4PPoE / PoE++ up to 100 W
• Fire performance: CPR Euroclass B2ca (s1a, d0, a1)
• Standards compliance: ANSI/TIA-568.2-D and ISO/IEC 11801-1
• Performance: CAT6A, suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Colour: Blue

How to use

Deploy the prefab cable as a fixed installation link between network equipment, patch panels, outlets or inline connectors. Route the cable following standard installation practice, secure with appropriate supports and avoid tight bends that exceed the cable’s minimum bend radius. Plug the male RJ45 into the network switch or patch panel and install the female RJ45 into the intended outlet, coupler or device connection. No termination tools are required; verify continuity and performance after installation using appropriate network testers calibrated for CAT6A.

What to consider before purchase

• Intended use: fixed installation runs versus flexible patching — solid conductor is for fixed runs
• Required length and connector gender; ensure male–female pre-termination matches the planned topology
• PoE power requirements of connected devices to confirm 100 W support is sufficient
• Fire-safety class requirements for the building to take advantage of the B2ca rating
• Compatibility with existing structured cabling standards and equipment

Usage recommendations

Handle and route the cable using standard installation practices: avoid exceeding bend radius, maintain separation from strong electrical interference where possible despite shielding, and secure the cable at regular intervals. After installation, use a CAT6A-capable tester to confirm performance and PoE delivery. For runs requiring repeated movement or desk-side patching, use stranded patch cords to preserve the integrity of the solid installation cable.
