ACT Pink 5 meter U/UTP CAT6A patch cable snagless with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Pink 5m U/UTP CAT6A Patch Cable Snagless RJ45 Connectors is a 5 meter network patch cable designed for wired Ethernet connections. It features U/UTP CAT6A cabling and snagless RJ45 connectors with gold-plated contacts, supporting high-speed data transmission for modern networks. The pink jacket identifies the cable visually and can help with cable management in office, studio, or home environments.

Advantages

The cable provides CAT6A-level performance for stable Gigabit and compatible Ethernet links. Snagless RJ45 connectors reduce the risk of clip damage when routing or disconnecting the cable. Gold-plated contacts improve signal reliability and corrosion resistance. The 5 m length offers a balance between reach and minimal excess slack for rack, desk, and patch-panel installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers, switches, and routers in office networks
• Home network wiring and multimedia systems
• Patch panel to switch connections in small server rooms
• Temporary network setups for events, studios, or testing

Key specifications

• Cable length: 5 m
• Cabling technology: U/UTP CAT6A, compatible with 10/100/1000Base-T(X)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, snagless design
• Contacts: gold-plated for improved conductivity and corrosion resistance
• Colour: Pink jacket for visual identification

How to use

Insert each RJ45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port on your devices until the connector clip clicks into place. Ensure both ends are fully seated to establish a reliable connection. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain; leave some slack near equipment to prevent connector stress. To disconnect, press the connector clip and pull gently on the connector body rather than the cable jacket.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable parallel and close to mains power lines or large electrical equipment which may introduce interference. Use colour-coded cables like the pink ACT patch cable to simplify identification in patch panels and cable bundles. Replace the cable if connectors become loose or if visible damage appears on the jacket or contacts.
