ACT Black 0.5 meters U/UTP CAT6A LSZH Slimline patch cable with RJ45 connectors 90° angled up to straight

ACT Black 0.5m RJ45 Cat6a U/UTP Black is a slimline Cat6A patch cable with a 0.5 meter cable length, straight RJ45 connector on one end and a 90° angled up RJ45 connector on the other. The cable uses U/UTP construction with full copper 28AWG conductors, a LSZH jacket and 50µ gold-plated RJ45 contacts. The reduced diameter and smaller bend radius improve rack airflow and make it suitable for use in dense cabling environments such as network cabinets and behind equipment.

Advantages

The slim 3.6 mm diameter and smaller bend radius allow neater routing and improved ventilation in server racks and network cabinets compared with standard Cat6A patch cords. Full copper 28AWG conductors and 50µ gold-plated contacts ensure reliable signal transmission and corrosion resistance. The LSZH jacket lowers the risk of toxic gas emission in case of fire. The straight-to-90° up connector configuration enables connections where space is limited without compromising cable performance.

Suitable for

• Patch panels in data centers and server racks
• Connections behind network equipment with limited clearance
• Horizontal and top-of-rack cabling where airflow is important
• Short-distance connections within network cabinets (0.5 m)

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6A (ANSI/TIA-568.2-D compliant)
• Cable length: 0.5 m
• Cable construction: U/UTP, full copper 28AWG
• Outer diameter: slimline ~3.6 mm
• Jacket: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Connectors: RJ45 straight to RJ45 90° angled (up)
• Contacts: 50 µin gold-plated
• Color: Black

How to use

Align the straight RJ45 connector and the 90° angled up RJ45 connector with the corresponding ports on your patch panel, switch or network device. Insert both ends firmly until the clips engage. Route the slimline cable along cable management paths or through rack openings, keeping bend radius recommendations in mind. This 0.5 m length is intended for short patching between adjacent ports or devices within the same cabinet.

Recommendations

For optimal airflow and longevity, avoid tight kinks and secure cables with appropriate cable management accessories. Verify port orientation to ensure the 90° up connector fits correctly; variants with 90° down, left or right connectors are available if a different orientation is required.
