ACT Cat6a U/FTP (STP) networking cable DA7905, 5 m, RJ-45 to RJ-45, black

ACT DA7905 is a Cat6a U/FTP (STP) slimline patch cable, 5 m long, with RJ-45 angled connectors on both ends. The cable has a reduced outer diameter of 3.8 mm compared with standard Cat6a cords, which allows a smaller bend radius and improved airflow in server racks and network cabinets. The jacket material is Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) for reduced toxic gas emission in case of fire.

Advantages

The slimline construction and smaller diameter provide better cable management and increased airflow in dense installations while preserving the required bend radius. Shielded U/FTP pairs and 50 µ gold-plated RJ45 contacts offer reliable signal integrity and corrosion resistance. The angled-to-angled connector configuration is designed for tight spaces behind equipment and inside cabinets.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

This cable is designed for installations where slim diameter and angled connectors are required. It may not be appropriate if a straight connector orientation is needed, if thicker unshielded cable is preferred for a specific installation standard, or when physical robustness of a larger-diameter jacket is a priority.

Key specifications

How to use

Route the cable through the rack or cabinet maintaining gentle curves to respect the cable's bend radius. Plug the angled RJ-45 connectors into the corresponding ports on switches, patch panels or equipment so that the down-angled and up-angled ends match the available clearance. Ensure shield termination is properly implemented at both ends as required by your installation practice to maintain shielding effectiveness.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

Use this slimline Cat6a U/FTP patch cable for dense rack wiring and tight spaces; keep bends smooth, terminate shielding correctly, and avoid excessive pulling force during installation to preserve performance and airflow benefits.
