## Summary description

The ACT Red 20 meter U/UTP CAT6 patch cable features high-quality RJ-45 connectors with gold plating for optimal connectivity. Designed for high-speed data transmission, this cable is perfect for networking applications. Its U/UTP shielding minimizes interference, ensuring reliable performance. The vibrant red color adds a touch of style to your setup while the 20-meter length provides flexibility in placement.

## Long description

The ACT Red 20 meter U/UTP CAT6 patch cable is a 20 m network cable designed for wired Ethernet connections that require CAT6 performance. It features standard RJ-45 plugs with gold-plated contacts to maintain a stable electrical connection and reduce contact corrosion. The cable uses U/UTP construction (unshielded twisted pairs with overall unshielded jacket) to deliver high-speed data transmission up to Gigabit Ethernet and to limit crosstalk in typical office and home environments. The red jacket helps visually identify runs in structured cabling and provides sufficient length for flexible placement of devices.
Advantages
This CAT6 patch cable provides consistent signal quality through tight pair twisting and controlled impedance suitable for 1000BASE-T and other Ethernet applications. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts improve connectivity and resist oxidation, while the 20 meter length eliminates the need for intermediate extenders in many layouts. The U/UTP design balances performance and cost for environments where overall shielding is not required.
Suitable for
Connecting PCs, switches, routers and networked printers in offices and homes
Wiring patch panels and wall outlets in structured cabling systems
Temporary or permanent links in server rooms and communication closets
Audio-over-IP and other networked AV equipment
Key specifications
Category: CAT6 (suitable for Gigabit Ethernet)
Length: 20 meters
Connectors: RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
Cable type: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pairs, overall unshielded)
Conductor: copper (solid or stranded depending on manufacturing practice)
Jacket color: red
Typical applications: 1000BASE-T, PoE support where standard CAT6 is acceptable
How to use
Insert the RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of the device until it clicks, ensuring correct orientation. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and reduce stress on the connectors; maintain bend radii larger than the cable diameter and avoid compressive loads. For permanent installations, use cable management such as ties and trunking to secure the run and keep it separate from power cables to reduce interference. Test the link with a network tester or verify link/activity LEDs on devices after connection.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance, keep the cable run length under recommended limits for structured cabling when combining with patch panels and permanent links. Avoid running alongside high-voltage power lines and maintain good cable management to prevent physical damage; replace the cable if connectors or jacket show signs of wear.
