ACT Grey 5 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6 patch cable with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Grey 5 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6 patch cable provides a 5 m connection between network devices using standard RJ-45 connectors. The cable uses U/UTP CAT6 construction with AWG#24 conductors and 50µ gold-plated contacts for consistent signal transmission. The LSZH sheath reduces smoke and eliminates halogen emissions, making the cable suitable for indoor installations where fire safety is a concern.

Advantages

This grey CAT6 patch cable combines CAT6 performance with LSZH insulation for safer indoor use. Gold-plated contacts help maintain reliable connectivity and reduce corrosion risk. With a 5 m length and standard RJ-45 connectors at both ends, the cable is compatible with a wide range of network equipment and supports high-speed data transfer typical for CAT6 cabling.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers in offices and data closets
• LAN installations in buildings requiring low-smoke, zero-halogen materials
• Patch panel to network device connections in server rooms

Key specifications

• Type: U/UTP CAT6 patch cable
• Length: 5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 — both ends
• Conductors: AWG#24
• Contacts: 50 µ gold-plated
• Sheath: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of the source device and the other into the destination device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of electromagnetic interference. For permanent installations, secure the cable with appropriate clips or cable management to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this CAT6 patch cable within its 5 m length for patching and short runs; keep it away from high-power electrical cables and avoid excessive bending radius to maintain signal integrity.
