ACT Black 0.5 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6A patch cable with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Black 0.5m LSZH U/UTP CAT6A patch cable is a short, high-performance network cable with RJ45 connectors on both ends. It meets the Cat6a standard and uses an LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket that reduces the emission of toxic gases and smoke in case of fire or thermal damage. The cable is unshielded pair over overall braid topology (U/UTP) and comes in black with a length of 0.50 m, suitable for compact connections between network devices.

Advantages

The LSZH jacket reduces the risk of hazardous gas and dense smoke build-up in confined or poorly ventilated spaces. Compliance with CPR Euroclass Eca confirms basic reaction-to-fire characteristics for indoor installations. The Cat6a specification supports higher data rates and improved performance compared with lower categories, while RJ45 connectors ensure compatibility with standard network equipment. The compact 0.5 m length helps keep cable runs tidy and reduces excess cable clutter.

Suitable for

• Short-distance connections between switches, patch panels and network devices
• Installations in areas with limited ventilation such as trains, aircraft interiors and vehicles
• Home and office desktop networking where a compact cable is needed

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to a network port on a switch, router, patch panel or device and insert the other RJ45 plug into the destination port. Ensure connectors are fully seated and locking tab clicks into place. Use the 0.5 m length for short patch runs to maintain tidy cabling and reduce signal reflections by avoiding unnecessary excess cable. Avoid sharp bends and excessive tensile force when routing the cable.

Recommendations

For installations in confined or poorly ventilated environments, choose LSZH-sheathed cables like this Cat6A patch lead to minimize smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire; follow local building and fire codes and the CPR Euroclass guidelines when planning cable routes.
