ACT Industrial 1.00 meter Profinet cable RJ45 male to RJ45 male, Superflex CAT6A SF/UTP TPE cable, shielded

The ACT Industrial 1.00m RJ45 to RJ45 Cat6A Blue network cable is a 1 meter Profinet-ready patch cable with RJ45 male connectors on both ends. It uses a Superflex SF/UTP construction with a TPE (Thermo Plastic Elastomer) outer sheath and overmoulded TPE connectors, offering IP67 protection and improved resistance to mechanical loads such as continuous movement in cable chains. Each conductor is made from 28 copper strands forming an AWG26-equivalent core, providing greater flexibility than typical AWG24/7 patch cables. The cable is shielded to reduce interference and features gold-plated contacts for reliable connectivity.

Advantages

The TPE jacket and overmoulded connectors deliver increased durability against abrasion and bending while maintaining IP67-level protection. Superflex SF/UTP stranded conductors (28 strands per core) provide higher flexibility that eases routing in confined spaces and cable carriers. Cat6A compliance and shielding improve data performance and electromagnetic compatibility, and gold-plated contacts reduce oxidation for consistent electrical contact.

Key specifications

How to use

Connect the RJ45 male plug at each end to the corresponding RJ45 ports on devices or switches. Route the cable taking advantage of its flexibility for tight bends and through cable carriers; avoid sharp kinks that could damage the conductors. Ensure connectors are fully inserted to engage locking clips and establish a secure connection. For installations that require IP67 protection, verify that connector seals and mating interfaces are properly closed.

Recommendations

Use the cable for short industrial links up to 1 m where flexibility and mechanical resistance are important. Avoid exceeding the cable's bend radius and protect it from prolonged exposure to chemicals or temperatures outside TPE specifications to maintain performance and service life.
