ACT Black 1 meter LSZH SFTP CAT6A patch cable snagless with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Black 1 meter LSZH SFTP CAT6A patch cable is a single-meter network cable designed for high-speed Ethernet connections. It combines S/FTP shielding with LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket material to reduce electromagnetic interference and minimize toxic smoke in case of fire. The cable uses full copper AWG#26 conductors and snagless RJ45 connectors with 50 µ gold-plated contacts to ensure reliable contact and data integrity for demanding network environments.

Advantages

This CAT6A S/FTP cable provides enhanced protection against crosstalk and external interference thanks to its individually shielded pairs and overall braided shield. The LSZH outer jacket lowers smoke emission and halogen release compared with standard PVC sheaths. Snagless RJ45 connectors prevent accidental tab damage during installation, while gold-plated contacts improve corrosion resistance and consistent signal transmission. All cables are 100% tested to verify performance and conformity with ACT specifications.

Suitable for

• Patch panels, switches and wall ports in office networks
• High-speed Ethernet connections up to 10 Gbps over short to medium runs
• Environments requiring low smoke and halogen-free materials, such as data centers and public buildings
• Audio/video streaming and reliable local area network links

Key specifications

• Conductor: full copper, AWG 26
• Connector type: RJ45 snagless with 50 µ gold-plated contacts
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Length: 1 meter
• Tested for performance and quality assurance

How to use

Connect one end of the ACT CAT6A patch cable to the RJ45 port on your network device and the other end to a switch, patch panel, or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a secure connection. Route the cable without tight bends and avoid running it parallel to high-voltage power lines to minimize interference. For permanent installations, verify link performance with network testing tools after installation.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this CAT6A S/FTP cable for links up to 1 meter within racks or between equipment where shielding and LSZH jacketing are required. Avoid excessive bending at the connector strain relief, and do not expose the cable to temperatures or environments outside the manufacturer's specified operating range. Regularly inspect connectors for debris and ensure contacts remain clean to maintain reliable throughput.
