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

ACT Red 5 meter U/UTP CAT6A patch cable with RJ45 connectors provides high-speed data transmission for Ethernet networks. The cable uses full copper conductors and meets ANSI/TIA568-C2-1 performance requirements, ensuring stable operation and compatibility with PoE (Power over Ethernet) applications. The U/UTP design reduces interference, and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors support reliable connectivity. Cable length: 5 m. Colour: red. Compatible with CPR Euroclass: Eca.

Advantages

Full copper conductors provide better conductivity and heat resistance compared to copper-clad alternatives, which supports dependable PoE delivery and long-term network stability. Compliance with ANSI/TIA568-C2-1 and use of materials that meet international standards reduce the risk of performance degradation. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors improve contact reliability and reduce corrosion. The U/UTP CAT6A construction offers high bandwidth suitable for Gigabit Ethernet and backbone segments.

Suitable for

• Wired LAN connections in homes and offices
• PoE-powered devices such as IP phones, access points and cameras
• High-speed connections for switches, routers and patch panels
• Structured cabling where a visible color-coded cable is desired

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6a (10/100/1000Base-T(X))
• Length: 5 m
• Conductors: full copper
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pairs with overall unshielded)
• Connectors: RJ-45 gold-plated
• Colour: Red
• CPR Euroclass: Eca

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to your network device (switch, router or patch panel) and the other to the target device (PC, IP camera, access point or PoE injector). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference. For installations in racks or under floors, use appropriate cable management accessories to maintain bend radius and prevent mechanical damage.

Recommendations

For reliable PoE operation, always use patch cables with full copper conductors as supplied here. Avoid running the cable alongside high-voltage power lines and replace any cable with visible damage. For permanent in-wall installations, verify local regulations and consider cables specifically rated for in-wall use.
