ACT Grey 5 meter LSZH F/UTP CAT5E patch cable with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Grey 5 meter LSZH F/UTP CAT5E patch cable provides a 5 m connection with RJ45 connectors plated in gold for reliable contact. Built to Cat5e specifications, this F/UTP cable includes foil shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference, while the LSZH jacket minimizes smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire, making it suitable for installations where reduced toxic fumes are important.

Advantages

LSZH outer jacket reduces the concentration of toxic and corrosive gases during combustion. F/UTP shielding improves signal integrity by protecting against external interference. Gold-plated RJ45 connectors ensure stable connections and lower contact resistance. The 5 m length offers flexibility for typical patching and desk-to-switch connections.

Suitable for

• Office patch panels and wall outlets
• Data cabinets and network switches
• Enclosed or poorly ventilated environments (public transport, vehicles)
• Structured cabling meeting Cat5e requirements

How to use

Connect one RJ45 connector to the network device (switch, router or wall outlet) and the other to the endpoint device (PC, printer or access point). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and compression; maintain bend radius recommended for Cat5e cables to preserve performance. For permanent installations, verify continuity and performance with a cable tester after installation.

Recommendations

Use the ACT 5 m LSZH F/UTP CAT5E cable in environments where reduced smoke and halogen emissions are required. Avoid running the cable near strong electrical noise sources without additional separation, and replace damaged cables to maintain network reliability.
