ACT Brown 0.15 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6 datacenter slimline patch cable snagless with RJ45 connectors

ACT Brown 0.15m LSZH U/UTP CAT6 Patch Cable Snagless RJ45 is a slimline CAT6 patch cord with a 0.15 m length and snagless RJ45 connectors. The cable uses U/UTP construction and low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) jacket material, making it suitable for confined installations such as server racks and network cabinets where reduced diameter and improved airflow are important.

Advantages

The slimline 3.8 mm diameter reduces cable bulk compared with standard CAT6 patch cords, allowing a smaller bending radius and better airflow in racks and cabinets. Snagless RJ45 connectors protect the latch during installation and removal. LSZH jacket minimizes smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire. Using 28 AWG conductor construction permits a thinner cable profile, noting that this increases attenuation at higher frequencies compared with 22–26 AWG types.

Key specifications

How to use

Plug RJ45 connectors into corresponding ports on network devices such as switches, patch panels or servers. Route the slimline cable through cable management channels or rack spaces, keeping bend radius appropriate for the cable to avoid sharp kinks. For PoE applications, adhere to recommended bundling limits to control temperature rise.

Recommendations

For Power over Ethernet (PoE) deployments, ACT advises a maximum bundle size of 24 slimline cables to limit temperature increase. Be aware that 28 AWG construction increases attenuation versus 22–26 AWG, especially at higher frequencies; choose cable length and placement accordingly for optimal signal performance.
