ACT Grey 7 meter U/UTP CAT6A patch cable with RJ45 connectors

ACT patch cables feature full copper conductors and meet ANSI/TIA568-C2-1 performance requirements, offering reliable physical layer connectivity for structured copper data networks. The Grey 7 meter U/UTP CAT6A RJ45 cable is designed for high-speed data transmission and includes gold-plated RJ45 connectors for stable contact and reduced corrosion. The U/UTP construction limits external interference while supporting the CAT6A standard; the cable also complies with CPR Euroclass Eca.

Advantages

The cable’s full copper conductors provide consistent electrical conductivity and are suitable for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications. Gold-plated RJ45 connectors improve long-term contact reliability. U/UTP CAT6A construction enables higher bandwidth and reduced crosstalk compared with lower-category cables. Compliance with ANSI/TIA568-C2-1 and CPR Euroclass Eca ensures predictable, standards-based performance.

Suitable for

• High-speed Ethernet connections (up to CAT6A performance)
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) deployments
• Office and home network patching between switches, patch panels and devices
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Length: 7 meters
• Category: CAT6A
• Shielding: U/UTP (overall unshielded, twisted pair screening not present)
• Conductor material: solid full copper
• Connector type: RJ45 with gold-plated contacts
• Standards: meets ANSI/TIA568-C2-1; CPR Euroclass Eca

How to use

Connect one RJ45 end to the network device (switch, router, patch panel) and the other end to the target device (computer, IP phone, access point). Ensure connectors are fully inserted and latched to maintain reliable contact. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends, heavy compression, and sources of strong electromagnetic interference to preserve signal integrity.

Recommendations

For PoE applications and long-term reliability, use this ACT patch cable with compatible network equipment and avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines. Replace cables that show visible damage to the conductor insulation or connector housing.
