ACT networking cable Cat6a U/UTP (UTP) with RJ-45 connectors 1.5 m Black

ACT DD7951 is a Cat6a U/UTP slimline patch cable in black with a 1.5 m length. The cable uses a slim 3.6 mm outer diameter jacket and full copper 28AWG conductors with 50 µin gold-plated RJ45 contacts. It meets the ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standard and is designed for high-speed Ethernet LAN patching, connecting switches, routers and workplace links where space and airflow in racks or cabinets are important.

Advantages

The slimline 3.6 mm diameter reduces bundle thickness and improves airflow in server racks and network cabinets compared with standard 5.9 mm Cat6a cords. Angled RJ45 connectors (90° down to 90° up) allow connections in tight spaces without forcing sharp bends in the cable. LSZH jacket material lowers the risk of high concentrations of toxic gases in case of fire. Cables are 100% tested and use full copper 28AWG conductors for reliable signal transmission.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

The slim 3.6 mm jacket and 28AWG conductors are optimized for space savings and short to medium runs; for very long runs or installations that require thicker conductors for maximum power delivery or lower attenuation, standard thicker Cat6a cables may be preferable. If your installation specifically requires straight connectors or different angled orientations, check connector variants available.

Key specifications

How to use

Connect the RJ45 angled ends to the corresponding ports on switches, patch panels or network devices. The angled-down to angled-up orientation helps route the cable along racks and equipment without exceeding recommended bend radius. Verify connector seating and test the link after installation; the cable is 100% tested but device and port compatibility should be confirmed before finalising the installation.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

Use these slimline Cat6a U/UTP cables for dense patching in racks and cabinets to improve airflow. Avoid sharp bends and maintain gentle routing along cable management channels; for longer backbone runs or higher PoE power requirements consider standard-diameter Cat6a alternatives.
