ACT Black 10 meter LSZH F/UTP CAT5E patch cable cross with RJ45 connectors

ACT Black 10 meter LSZH F/UTP CAT5E Cross RJ45 patch cable is a 10 m network cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. The cable uses F/UTP CAT5E construction with AWG 26 conductors, 50 µ gold-plated contacts and a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) sheath, providing reliable high-speed data transmission and reduced smoke and toxic gases in indoor environments.

Advantages

The cross-wired CAT5E cable supports standard Ethernet connections and is suitable for use where a crossover configuration is required. Gold-plated contacts (50 µ) enhance contact reliability and corrosion resistance. The LSZH sheath reduces hazardous emissions in case of fire. Shielding (F/UTP) helps minimize electromagnetic interference for improved signal integrity.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers in office or home networks
• Temporary or permanent indoor wiring where low-smoke materials are required
• Networking setups that need a crossover cable for direct device-to-device links

Key specifications

• Cable length: 10 m
• Cable type: F/UTP CAT5E (shielded)
• Conductors: AWG 26
• Connectors: RJ-45 — RJ-45 (cross)
• Contacts: 50 µ gold-plated
• Sheath: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Product colour: Black

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port on the devices you want to connect. For direct device-to-device connections (for example, two computers), use the cable as a crossover link; when connecting through a switch or modern devices with auto-MDI/MDIX, the cable can also work as required. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference to maintain signal quality.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid running the cable parallel to mains power lines and keep bend radius above the manufacturer’s minimum. Inspect connectors for damage before installation and replace the cable if the sheath or contacts are compromised.
