Network cable ACT DA5952 Cat6a U/FTP (STP) 0.25 m Black RJ‑45 to RJ‑45

ACT DA5952 is a 0.25 m slimline Cat6a U/FTP (STP) patch cable with two 90° down-angled RJ‑45 connectors and a black LSZH jacket. The cable is designed for short interconnections in data centers and network cabinets where space is limited, offering 10GbE-capable performance, reduced electromagnetic interference through foil shielding, and a smaller outer diameter to improve airflow around equipment.

Advantages

The slimline 3.8 mm outer diameter and reduced bend radius allow denser cable routing in racks and behind equipment without compromising signal performance. Full-copper 32 AWG conductors and 50 µm gold-plated RJ‑45 contacts provide reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance, while the LSZH jacket lowers the risk of toxic gas emission in case of fire. The cable is 100% tested and meets relevant international standards.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

This 0.25 m patch cable is intended for short links; it is not appropriate for long horizontal runs or backbone cabling. Installations that do not require shielding or that prefer thicker cables for mechanical robustness may choose a standard-diameter Cat6a cable instead.

Key specifications

How to use

Connect the angled RJ‑45 plugs to the corresponding ports on network devices, ensuring the down-angled orientation fits the cabinet or equipment layout. Route the cable along cable management channels or behind equipment, keeping bend radii within recommended limits for Cat6a to maintain signal integrity. The short 0.25 m length is suitable for direct patching between adjacent ports.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

Use this slimline Cat6a U/FTP patch cable for short, high-density connections in racks and cabinets where space and airflow are priorities; ensure both RJ‑45 90° down connectors align with your equipment ports before purchase.
