ACT Yellow 0.5 meter SFTP CAT6A patch cable snagless with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Yellow 0.5 meter SFTP CAT6A patch cable is a short, shielded Ethernet cable designed for reliable high-speed connections in network environments. It features full copper AWG#26 conductors, a foil and braid S/FTP shielding, snagless RJ-45 connectors and 50µ gold-plated RJ-45 contacts. The cable is 100% tested and ACT specifications are verified by an independent certification institute.

Advantages

This SFTP CAT6A patch cable provides CAT6A performance in a compact 0.5 m length, reducing cable clutter for short runs. Full copper AWG#26 wires ensure stable signal transmission while 50µ gold-plated RJ-45 contacts improve contact reliability and corrosion resistance. The snagless RJ-45 design protects the connector latch during installation, and the SFTP shielding minimizes electromagnetic interference for consistent data throughput. Factory testing and independent verification of ACT specifications offer traceable quality assurance.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Short connections between switches, patch panels and network devices
• Server racks and data cabinets where space is limited
• High-speed Ethernet links up to CAT6A performance
• Environments requiring reduced EMI/RFI interference

• Contacts: 50µ gold-plated RJ-45
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45, snagless
• Length: 0.5 m
• Colour: Yellow
• Testing: 100% tested; ACT specifications independently verified

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (switch, router, patch panel or NIC) and the other end to the corresponding port. Ensure both ends are fully inserted until the latch engages. Use the 0.5 m length for short point-to-point connections to avoid excess cable loops. Handle the cable by the connector boots and avoid sharp bends exceeding the cable's bend radius to maintain signal performance.

Recommendations

For optimum performance, use this SFTP CAT6A patch cable in shielded or grounded installations to ensure the shielding is effective. Avoid running the cable parallel and close to power lines or large electrical equipment; if necessary, cross them at right angles. Replace the cable if the connector latch or contacts show visible damage.
