ACT Black 0.5 m U/FTP CAT6A LSZH Slimline patch cable with RJ45 connectors 90° angled right to straight

ACT CAT6A U/FTP LSZH Slimline patch cable 0.5 m with RJ45 90° right to straight, black is a slim-diameter network patch cord designed for 10 Gbps Ethernet connections in dense installations. The cable uses U/FTP (STP) shielding, a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket and full copper 32AWG conductors with 50 µ gold-plated RJ45 contacts. One connector is straight and the other is a 90° right-angled RJ45, allowing space-saving routing in server racks, network cabinets and behind equipment without compromising the required bend radius.

Advantages

The slim 3.8 mm outer diameter reduces cable bulk compared with standard CAT6A cords, improving airflow in cabinets and making routing in tight spaces easier. U/FTP shielding and full copper conductors support stable high-speed links while the LSZH jacket lowers the risk of toxic gas emission in case of fire. Gold-plated contacts and 100% testing ensure reliable connectivity and compliance with international standards.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

This 0.5 m slimline patch cable is intended for short connections inside racks and cabinets; it is not designed for long-distance runs between rooms or buildings. The thinner 3.8 mm cable diameter prioritizes space savings and airflow, but may be less robust for heavy mechanical stress compared with thicker industrial cables.

Key specifications

How to use

Plug the straight RJ45 connector into the network device or patch panel port and the 90° right-angled connector into the opposite port where space is constrained. Ensure connectors are fully inserted and locked. Route the cable following the rack or cabinet layout to maintain bend radius and airflow; avoid sharp kinks and excessive tension. The cable is suitable for standard Ethernet installation practices and supports 10 Gbps links when used within Cat6A specifications.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

For best results use this ACT CAT6A U/FTP LSZH slimline patch cable for short, high-density connections inside racks or cabinets; keep bend radius gentle, avoid mechanical strain, and pair with Cat6A-compliant hardware to maintain 10 Gbps performance.
