ACT Grey 0.5 meter U/UTP CAT6A patch cable with RJ45 connectors

ACT Patch Cable Grey 0.5m U/UTP CAT6A RJ45 is a short patch cable built with full copper conductors and designed to meet ANSI/TIA568-C2-1 performance requirements. The cable uses high-quality RJ45 connectors with gold plating to ensure optimal conductivity and supports CAT6A-level high-speed data transmission. U/UTP construction reduces interference, and the product is compatible with CPR Euroclass Eca.

Advantages

The cable's full copper conductors and compliance with international standards provide stable, long-term network performance and reliable Power over Ethernet (PoE) operation. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts improve signal transfer and corrosion resistance. Compact 0.5 m length and grey colour make it practical for tidy patching in racks, panels, and desktop equipment while maintaining CAT6A performance.

Suitable for

• Short connections in patch panels and network racks
• Linking switches, routers, and patch panels in offices and data closets
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices where full copper conductors are required
• High-speed CAT6A data links for home and small office setups

How to use

Connect one RJ45 end to your network device (switch, router, patch panel) and the other end to the corresponding port on the paired device. Use the 0.5 m length for short-range patching to minimize cable clutter and maintain neat cable management. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. For PoE devices, confirm the network equipment supports required PoE class and power budget before deployment.

Recommendations

Use ACT CAT6A patch cables in structured copper networks where full copper conductors are required for reliable data and PoE transmission; avoid sharp bends and strain on connectors and keep cable runs within recommended lengths for the intended patching application.
