ACT Grey 1.5 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT5E patch cable with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Grey 1.5 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT5E patch cable is a short network lead with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, designed for reliable Ethernet connections between devices located near each other. Constructed with unshielded twisted pair CAT5E wiring and a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) sheath, the cable reduces smoke and toxic gas emission in case of fire while supporting standard high-speed data transmission for home and office networks.

Advantages

This U/UTP CAT5E patch cable provides a compact 1.5 m length for tidy connections, gold-plated 50 µ contacts for consistent signal contact, and an LSZH outer sheath for improved safety in enclosed spaces. The grey colour makes it visually unobtrusive in office and residential environments, and dual RJ-45 connectors ensure compatibility with common networking equipment.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers to switches or routers over short distances
• Patch panels and wall outlets in office cabling
• Linking network devices in home entertainment setups
• Environments requiring low-smoke, low-halogen cabling

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of your device (PC, switch, router, or patch panel) and the other into the corresponding port on the opposite device. Ensure connectors click into place to confirm a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension to maintain signal integrity and prolong service life.

Recommendations

Use the 1.5 m length for short point-to-point connections or tidy patching in racks and desks. For installations in fire-sensitive or densely populated areas, prefer LSZH-sheathed cables to reduce smoke and halogen emissions. Avoid running the cable near strong electromagnetic sources to minimize interference.
