ACT Brown 20.00 meter SFTP CAT6A patch cable snagless with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Brown 20.00 meter SFTP CAT6A patch cable is a high-performance network cable designed for reliable wired connections over longer distances. Constructed with S/FTP shielding and snagless RJ45 connectors, this 20 m cable supports high-speed data transmission and reduces electromagnetic and crosstalk interference. Gold-plated contacts ensure consistent signal transfer and improved contact longevity, while the brown jacket provides a discreet appearance for organized cabling in office or home installations.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction combines an overall foil shield with individually shielded pairs to minimise external interference and pair-to-pair crosstalk, improving signal integrity for CAT6A-class performance. Snagless RJ45 connectors protect the plug latch during installation and removal, and gold-plated contacts offer corrosion resistance and stable connectivity. The 20 meter length allows flexible placement of devices without the need for additional patch panels or extenders.

How to use

Connect one RJ45 end to your network device (router, switch or network interface) and the other end to the target device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; maintain a gentle bend radius consistent with CAT6A cabling best practices. For installations in high-interference areas, verify proper termination and grounding of connected equipment to maximise shielding effectiveness.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable parallel to mains power lines for long distances and keep separation from large electrical equipment. Use cable ties or organisers to maintain tidy runs and prevent stress on connectors. When deploying in permanent structured cabling, follow site guidelines for bend radius and supported installation practices.
