ACT Pink 20 meter U/UTP CAT6A patch cable snagless with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Pink 20m U/UTP CAT6A patch cable with RJ45 connectors is a 20 meter unshielded twisted pair cable designed to meet CAT6A performance requirements for high-speed Ethernet links. It features snagless RJ45 plugs with gold-plated contacts to reduce signal loss and improve contact reliability. The cable's pink jacket provides clear visual identification in patch panels and cabling runs while the U/UTP construction supports common structured cabling environments.

Advantages

This CAT6A patch cable offers support for enhanced data rates and bandwidth compared with lower-category cables, reducing crosstalk and maintaining signal integrity over the 20 m length. Snagless RJ45 connectors protect the plug latch during installation and the gold-plated contacts enhance corrosion resistance and consistent electrical contact. The visible pink color helps with cable management and quick identification in dense installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting network switches to patch panels or wall outlets in offices and data closets
• Home networking where longer cable runs are required between rooms and equipment
• Temporary network setups at events where color-coded cabling improves organization
• Environments requiring CAT6A performance for Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet over short to medium distances

Key specifications

• Category: CAT6A
• Connectors: RJ45 to RJ45, snagless design
• Contacts: gold-plated
• Supported protocols: 10/100/1000Base-T(X) and compatible with higher-speed Ethernet where CAT6A is specified
• Colour: Pink

How to use

Route the ACT Pink 20m patch cable between network devices ensuring the cable is not sharply bent or pinched; maintain bend radius consistent with standard Ethernet cabling practices. Insert RJ45 plugs firmly into the switch, router, patch panel or outlet ports until the latch clicks into place. For structured installations, document the pink cable runs in your cabling plan to preserve traceability. When disconnecting, press the latch to release the plug to avoid damaging the connector.

Recommendations

Use this CAT6A U/UTP cable for Ethernet links up to 20 m where CAT6A performance is required; avoid running next to high-voltage power lines to reduce potential interference and keep within the recommended bend radius. For installations in electrically noisy environments or where additional shielding is required, consider shielded cabling alternatives.
