ACT Orange 1.00 meter SFTP CAT6A patch cable snagless with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Orange 1.00 meter SFTP CAT6A patch cable is a short, high-performance network connection cable designed for reliable data transmission in modern network environments. It uses Cat6a standards with S/FTP (shielded foil over twisted pairs plus overall braid) shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. The cable features snagless RJ45 connectors with gold-plated contacts to ensure stable connections and improved contact longevity, and its compact 1 m length makes it suitable for short patching runs in racks, patch panels, switches and desktop setups.

Advantages

This SFTP CAT6A patch cable provides enhanced protection against external noise thanks to its S/FTP shielding construction, helping to maintain consistent signal integrity at higher data rates. The snagless RJ45 connectors protect the plug tab from accidental damage during routing and handling, while gold-plated contacts reduce oxidation and maintain low contact resistance. The 1 m length minimizes excess cable clutter and is convenient for organized patching in confined spaces. The vibrant orange color improves cable identification within structured cabling installations.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert one RJ45 connector into the network port of the source device and the other RJ45 connector into the destination device or patch panel until the plug latches. Ensure connectors are aligned correctly before insertion to avoid bending the contact pins. For best performance, avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable and keep it away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference such as unshielded power lines or large electric motors. Use appropriate cable management to maintain neat routing and prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

For optimal network performance, use this SFTP CAT6A patch cable for links up to 1 m where reduced interference and high-speed transmission are needed. Verify that connected devices support the desired network speeds and maintain proper cable separation from high-voltage lines. Replace the cable if connector damage or degraded signal quality is observed.
