ACT Purple 2m LSZH U/UTP CAT6 Datacenter Slimline Patch Cable Snagless with RJ45 Connectors (DC9302)

In high-density data centers and server rooms, cable bulk can block airflow and complicate maintenance. This ACT slimline patch cable solves that with a narrow 28 AWG conductor profile, while still delivering CAT6 performance up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet. The purple jacket makes it easy to color-code network segments, and the snagless boot protects the locking tab during frequent moves and changes.

Key specifications

• Category: CAT6
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair)
• Jacket material: LSZH (low smoke zero halogen)
• Length: 2 m
• Conductor gauge: 28 AWG
• Connectors: RJ45 male to RJ45 male, snagless boot
• Colour: Purple
• Bandwidth: up to 250 MHz
• Data rate: up to 10 Gbps
• Wiring standard: TIA/EIA-568B

Why choose it

The slimline design reduces cable diameter, improving airflow and making cable management easier in dense racks. LSZH jacket emits low smoke and no halogen in case of fire, suitable for enclosed spaces. Snagless boots prevent accidental disconnection.

Ideal use cases

• Data center server-to-switch connections
• High-density patch panels in network cabinets
• Color-coded network segmentation
• 10GBASE-T uplinks over short distances

Good to know

For best performance, keep the cable away from power lines and avoid sharp bends. The 28 AWG conductors are thinner than standard 24 AWG, so this cable is intended for short, high-density runs rather than long horizontal cabling.
