ACT Black 5 meters S/FTP CAT6A IDC 4PPoE / PoE++ 100W LSZH patch cable snagless with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Black 5m S/FTP CAT6A patch cable (FB4905) is a 5‑meter network cable with snagless RJ45 connectors, S/FTP shielding and an LSZH jacket. It is built with solid 24 AWG copper conductors and 50 µin gold‑plated RJ45 contacts attached by Insulation Displacement Contact (IDC) method. The cable meets ANSI/TIA‑568.2‑D and is intended for high‑power PoE installations up to 100W (4PPoE / PoE++), suitable for use in plenum spaces and raised floors.

Advantages

The ACT CAT6A cable provides low electrical resistance thanks to full copper 24 AWG conductors and IDC termination, improving stability in 4PPoE 100W applications. S/FTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference for reliable data transmission, while gold‑plated RJ45 contacts enhance conductivity and reduce contact wear. The LSZH jacket lowers the release of toxic gases in case of fire, making the cable suitable for confined spaces and raised access floors.

Suitable for

• Connecting PoE++ / 4PPoE 100W network switches to security cameras
• Powering access points requiring single‑cable power and data
• High‑speed data links in server rooms, wiring closets and office networks

Key specifications

• Cable standard: CAT6A (ANSI/TIA‑568.2‑D)
• Length: 5 m
• Conductor: solid copper, 24 AWG
• Shielding: S/FTP
• Connector: RJ45 to RJ45, 50 µin gold‑plated contacts, IDC termination
• PoE support: 4PPoE / PoE++ up to 100W (Type 4)
• Sheath: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Colour: Black

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the port of a PoE network switch and the other into the RJ45 port of the powered device (for example a security camera or access point). Ensure both devices support 4PPoE / PoE++ where 100W power delivery is required. Route the cable according to building regulations for LSZH‑rated cables when using plenum spaces or raised floors, avoiding sharp bends and excessive strain.

Recommendations

For optimal performance in 4PPoE 100W installations use one ACT CAT6A patch cable per powered device and choose cable runs that minimise length and interference. Inspect IDC terminations visually after installation and avoid repeated unplugging to preserve gold‑plated contact integrity.
