ACT Blue 2 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6A patch cable with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Blue 2 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6A patch cable is a 2 m network lead with RJ45 connectors designed for Cat6a performance. The cable uses U/UTP construction to reduce electromagnetic interference and an LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket to limit smoke and toxic gas emissions in case of fire. It complies with CPR Euroclass Eca and is suitable for structured cabling in homes, offices and transport environments where reduced smoke emission is required.

Advantages

LSZH jacketing lowers the release of halogenated toxic gases and dense smoke during combustion compared with standard PVC sheathing. U/UTP Cat6a specification supports high data rates and improved immunity to crosstalk and external interference. The cable includes standard RJ45 plugs for easy connection and a 2 m length that provides flexibility for typical desktop and patch-panel setups.

Suitable for

• Desktop and patch-panel connections in offices and homes
• Environments with limited ventilation such as trains, aircraft and vehicles
• Structured cabling installations requiring Cat6a performance

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to the network device (switch, router or PC) and the other to the corresponding port on the patch panel or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click to secure the connection. Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid tight coils to maintain signal integrity. For permanent installations, secure the cable with appropriate clips or cable management accessories to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

For best performance, use this Cat6a U/UTP patch cable for Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications within its length limits and avoid running it parallel to high-voltage power lines to minimise interference. Choose LSZH cabling where reduced smoke and toxic emissions are required by local safety regulations.
