ACT Grey 20 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6A patch cable with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Grey 20 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6A IB1120 patch cable provides high-speed data transmission according to the Cat6a standard. It features RJ-45 connectors on both ends, a U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair with overall braid) construction to reduce electromagnetic interference, and a grey LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket that limits smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire. The cable is compatible with CPR Euroclass Eca and is suitable for structured network installations in homes and offices where reduced toxic fumes are required.

Advantages

The LSZH outer jacket reduces the risk of high concentrations of toxic gases and dense smoke during combustion, making the cable safer for use in enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces. The Cat6a standard supports high data rates and improved performance over Cat5e/Cat6 at higher frequencies. Dual RJ-45 connectors ensure plug-and-play compatibility with common network equipment, while the U/UTP design offers basic protection against interference without the bulk of fully shielded cables.

Suitable for

• Structured Ethernet networks in homes and offices
• Data links between switches, routers and patch panels
• Environments requiring low smoke and halogen-free cabling (e.g., enclosed public transport, server rooms, meeting rooms)
• Permanent horizontal cabling and patching up to 20 m

How to use

Unroll the 20 m cable and connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (switch, router, NIC) and the other end to the corresponding port on the opposite device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Avoid sharp bends and kinks; maintain minimum bend radius as recommended by the installer to preserve performance. For permanent installations, route the cable through cable trays or conduits and secure with appropriate clips or ties without compressing the jacket.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6a LSZH patch cable in areas where reduced smoke and halogen emissions are important. Keep the cable away from high-power electrical sources to minimize interference, and verify compatibility with your network equipment for 10 Gigabit links if required.
