ACT Brown 0.15 meter LSZH U/FTP CAT6A datacenter slimline patch cable snagless with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Brown 0.15m LSZH U/FTP CAT6A Patch Cable Snagless RJ45 is a slimline datacenter patch cord designed for high-speed Ethernet connections. With a diameter of 3.8 mm, U/FTP shielding and LSZH jacket, this short brown cable provides reduced bending radius and improved airflow in server racks and network cabinets while limiting smoke and toxic emissions in the event of fire.

Advantages

The slim 3.8 mm diameter decreases bundle thickness compared with standard 5.9 mm CAT6A cords, allowing denser cabling and better air circulation. U/FTP shielding helps maintain signal integrity at high frequencies, and snagless RJ45 connectors with gold-plated contacts ensure reliable mating and reduced wear. The LSZH jacket minimizes smoke and toxic gas output in enclosed or sensitive environments.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections in datacenters and network cabinets
• Tight cable management runs where reduced bend radius and space savings are needed
• Environments requiring low-smoke, low-toxicity materials (public buildings, telecom rooms)
• High-speed Ethernet links (CAT6A applications) between switches, patch panels and servers

Key specifications

How to use

Connect one RJ45 end to a switch, patch panel or server port and the other RJ45 end to the corresponding port. Route the cable following existing cable management paths and avoid sharp bends below the cable's bend radius. For short 0.15 m links place the cable close to the equipment to maintain tidy racks and prevent strain on connectors.

Recommendations

Follow industry guidance for bundle sizes in PoE deployments: ACT recommends a maximum bundle size of 24 slimline cables when delivering Power over Ethernet to limit temperature rise. Note that using very thin conductors (e.g., 32 AWG) increases attenuation at higher frequencies; adhere to ISO/IEC and TIA guidelines for channel and link design where applicable.
