ACT Blue 3 meters LSZH SFTP CAT6A MPTL extension cable snagless with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Blue 3 meters LSZH S/FTP CAT6A MPTL extension cable is a 3 m modular plug terminated link (MPTL) cable compliant with ANSI/TIA-568.2-D. It is intended to extend fixed network cabling for devices such as cameras or access points to a consolidation point and is suitable for use in plenum and other indoor spaces due to its LSZH jacket.

Advantages

This CAT6A S/FTP MPTL extension cable uses full copper 26 AWG conductors, features 50 µ gold-plated RJ-45 contacts and snagless RJ45 connectors to reduce connector damage during installation. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket reduces the release of toxic and corrosive gases in case of fire. As an MPTL cable it can be included in the permanent link while maintaining ANSI/TIA-568.2-D compliance, unlike solutions that use RJ45 couplers.

Suitable for

• Extending network connections for IP cameras
• Extending cabling for wireless access points
• Short-distance patching in office and residential indoor environments

Key specifications

• Length: 3 m
• Standard: ANSI/TIA-568.2-D (MPTL)
• Cable type: S/FTP, CAT6A
• Conductor: solid copper, 26 AWG
• Contacts: 50 µ gold-plated RJ-45
• Jacket: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Connectors: snagless RJ-45 on both ends

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug of the MPTL extension cable to the device or existing permanent link and the other plug to the consolidation point or patch panel. Ensure correct orientation of the snagless connector when plugging in. This cable is intended for indoor installations and can be routed through plenum spaces where LSZH materials are required.

Recommendations

For reliable network performance, avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling force during installation. Use the 3 m length to maintain signal integrity by minimising intermediate couplers; include the MPTL cable in the permanent link to remain ANSI/TIA-568.2-D compliant.
