ACT Red 5 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6 patch cable with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Red 5 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6 patch cable with gold-plated RJ45 connectors is designed for reliable high-speed data transmission in structured networks. The cable uses AWG#24 conductors, has a bandwidth of 250 MHz and a vibrant Pantone 201C red sheath made from LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) material to reduce smoke and toxic emissions in case of fire.

Advantages

This CAT6 U/UTP patch cable provides stable connections with gold-plated RJ45 plugs for improved contact and corrosion resistance. The 250 MHz bandwidth and AWG#24 conductors support high data rates for typical network applications. The LSZH sheath enhances safety in enclosed spaces by limiting smoke and halogen release, and the red colour helps with easy cable identification and organisation.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers within office or data centre racks
• Patching between wall outlets and patch panels
• Short-run network links requiring clear cable identification

How to use

Insert the RJ45 connectors into the corresponding ports on network devices until they click into place. Use the 5 m cable for connections between patch panels, switches, routers and end devices ensuring minimal slack and avoiding tight bends. Route the cable neatly using cable management to prevent strain on the connectors and maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

Avoid running the cable parallel and close to power lines to reduce electromagnetic interference. Do not exceed the recommended bend radius or subject the cable to excessive pulling force. For safety in public or enclosed spaces, choose LSZH-sheathed cables like this one to limit smoke and toxic gas emission in case of fire.
