ACT Black 2 meters U/UTP CAT6A LSZH Slimline patch cable with RJ45 connectors 90° angled right to straight

ACT Black 2m RJ45 Cat6a U/UTP slimline patch cable is a 2-metre straight-through network cable designed for datacenter and rack installations. The slimline construction (approx. 3.6 mm diameter) reduces cable bulk and allows a smaller bend radius compared with standard Cat6a cords, improving airflow in server racks and network cabinets. The cable features a straight RJ45 connector on one end and a 90° angled right RJ45 connector on the other, and uses a LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket for reduced toxic smoke in case of fire. Conductors are full copper 28 AWG with 50 µin gold-plated RJ45 contacts and the cable meets ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Cat6a requirements.

Advantages

The slimline U/UTP design reduces diameter and bend radius, which helps maintain airflow and saves space in dense installations. A 90° angled RJ45 connector on one end enables easier routing behind equipment and inside cabinets where space is limited. LSZH jacket material lowers the risk of hazardous smoke emissions, and full copper 28 AWG conductors with gold-plated contacts ensure reliable connectivity and compliance with Cat6a standards.

Key specifications

How to use

Plug the straight RJ45 connector into the network device or patch panel and insert the 90° angled RJ45 connector into the switch, server or equipment port. Route the slimline cable along cable management channels or behind rails to take advantage of the reduced diameter and bend radius. Ensure connectors are fully inserted and latched; verify network link and performance after installation.

Recommendations

Use the 90° angled end when connecting devices with limited rear clearance and avoid sharp bends tighter than the cable’s specified bend radius. For permanent installations, keep runs within the 2 m length and avoid prolonged exposure to heat sources; follow ANSI/TIA cabling best practices for patching and rack management.
