ACT Black 1.5 m U/FTP CAT6A LSZH Slimline patch cable with RJ45 connectors 90° angled right to straight

ACT Cat6A U/FTP LSZH Slimline patch cable, 1.5 m, with an RJ45 90° angled right connector on one end and a straight RJ45 on the other. The cable uses U/FTP shielding (foil around each pair) to reduce crosstalk and supports high-speed 10GbE networks. The slimline jacket has a reduced outer diameter to improve airflow in server racks and cabinets, and the LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath lowers the risk of hazardous smoke and corrosive gases in case of fire. Contacts are gold-plated and the internal conductors are full copper for reliable signal transmission.

Advantages

The slim 3.8 mm diameter and smaller bend radius save space and allow neater routing in crowded network cabinets without stressing the cable. U/FTP pair shielding and full-copper 32 AWG conductors provide stable high-frequency performance, while 50 µ gold-plated RJ45 contacts improve contact reliability. The LSZH jacket enhances safety in enclosed spaces by reducing smoke and halogen emissions during combustion.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

The slimline 3.8 mm cable is designed for internal patching and cabinet use; it may not be suitable for heavy outdoor exposure or environments requiring armored or direct-burial cables. If you need extreme mechanical protection, outdoor UV resistance, or conduit-rated cabling, choose a cable engineered for those conditions.

Key specifications

How to use

Plug the straight RJ45 connector into the network port that requires a straight entry and insert the 90° angled connector where space is limited or where a right-angled exit prevents cable kinking. Route the slimline cable along cable management paths or rack panels to maintain airflow and avoid sharp bends beyond the specified bend radius. Ensure both ends are fully seated in the ports and check link/activity LEDs on connected devices to confirm a proper connection.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

Use this slimline Cat6A patch cable for internal cabinet and rack patching where space and airflow matter. Avoid routing through outdoor areas or locations requiring mechanical armoring; choose appropriate alternatives for harsh environments.
