ACT White 2 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6 datacenter slimline patch cable snagless with RJ45 connectors

ACT White 2 meter LSZH U/UTP CAT6 datacenter slimline patch cable with snagless RJ45 connectors is a slim-diameter Ethernet cable (approx. 3.8 mm) designed for datacenter and network cabinet installations. Its reduced diameter and lower bending radius improve airflow inside server racks compared with regular CAT6 patch cords, while LSZH material reduces smoke and toxic emissions in confined spaces. The cable is 2 m long, white, and terminated with RJ45 connectors on both ends for standard Ethernet connections.

Advantages

The slimline CAT6 U/UTP construction saves space in dense cabling environments and supports high-speed data transfer typical for CAT6 performance. Snagless RJ45 connectors protect the plug latch during installation and routing. LSZH jacket material lowers the risk from smoke and toxic gases in case of fire. While 28 AWG conductors can be used, users should be aware of increased attenuation at higher frequencies compared to thicker 22–26 AWG wires.

Suitable for

• Datacenter patching and horizontal cabling where space and airflow are critical
• Network cabinets and server racks with dense cable routing
• Standard Ethernet connections requiring 2 m cable length

How to use

Route the slimline patch cable between networking equipment ports in the rack or cabinet, taking advantage of the smaller diameter to maintain neater bundles and improved airflow. Insert the RJ45 connectors firmly into the appropriate Ethernet ports until the latch clicks. Avoid sharp bends beyond the manufacturer’s recommended bending radius and secure the cable to cable-management fixtures as needed.

Recommendations

For Power over Ethernet (PoE) deployments follow ACT guidance and limit bundles to a maximum of 24 cables to prevent overheating; this helps keep the temperature rise of the centre cable under the industry guidance threshold (ANSI TSB-184-A). Consider that 28 AWG constructions increase attenuation at higher frequencies compared with 22–26 AWG, so verify link performance over your required distances and speeds.
