ACT Black 0.25 meters U/UTP CAT6A LSZH Slimline patch cable with RJ45 connectors 90° angled left to straight

ACT Black 0.25m CAT6A U/UTP LSZH slimline patch cable with a 90° left-angled RJ45 connector and a straight RJ45 connector. The cable has a reduced diameter (3.6 mm) compared with standard CAT6A cords, providing a smaller bend radius and improved airflow in server racks and network cabinets. It uses 28 AWG full copper conductors and 50 µin gold-plated RJ45 contacts and meets ANSI/TIA-568.2-D.

Advantages

The slimline design lowers cable bulk while preserving signal performance for CAT6A applications. The 90° left-to-straight connector combination allows neat routing in confined spaces without compromising the bend radius. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and halogen emission in case of fire. Gold-plated contacts and full copper conductors ensure reliable connectivity and compliance with industry cabling standards.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, patch panels and servers in dense rack environments
• Short horizontal links behind equipment where space is limited
• Data centers and network cabinets requiring reduced cable bulk and improved airflow

Key specifications

• Standard: CAT6A (ANSI/TIA-568.2-D)
• Cable type: U/UTP slimline
• Length: 0.25 m
• Conductor: 28 AWG solid copper
• Connectors: RJ45 straight and RJ45 90° left
• Contacts: 50 µin gold-plated
• Jacket: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Colour: Black

How to use

Route the 90° left connector to ports positioned close to surfaces or behind equipment and plug the straight connector into the corresponding device or patch panel. Ensure the cable is not sharply kinked and respect the specified bend radius to maintain signal integrity. Use standard cable management accessories in racks or cabinets to secure the cable and keep airflow unobstructed.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid running the slimline CAT6A cable parallel and close to high-voltage power lines. When installing multiple cables in a rack, allow space for airflow around the cables and maintain manufacturer-recommended bend radius to preserve transmission characteristics.
