Network cable ACT DD1905 Cat6 U/FTP (STP) Black, 5 m, RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts

ACT DD1905 is a 5 m Cat6 U/FTP (STP) slimline patch cable with angled, 360° rotatable RJ-45 connectors on both ends. The slim 4 mm jacket and reduced bend radius make it suitable for dense installations such as server racks and network cabinets, while full copper 32 AWG conductors and 50 µ gold-plated contacts ensure stable signal transmission and corrosion resistance. The cable is 100% tested and comes with a 5-year warranty.

Advantages

The slim 4 mm outer jacket improves airflow in cabinets and reduces space usage compared with standard Cat6A cables, while the smaller bend radius allows flexible routing without stressing the conductors. Angled, 360° rotatable RJ-45 plugs enable neat terminations in tight spaces. Full copper 32 AWG wires with 50 µ gold-plated contacts provide good conductivity, durability and resistance to corrosion. The cable is manufactured and tested to meet international standards, with a 5-year warranty for added assurance.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

This slimline Cat6 U/FTP cable is designed for short to medium runs inside cabinets and between rack devices; it may not be the best choice for long outdoor or direct-burial installations where specific outdoor-rated or armored cables are required. Also, environments requiring the absolute maximum Cat6A bandwidth over long horizontal distances might prefer standard-diameter, lower-gauge cables specified for that use.

Key specifications

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 angled plug to the network device (switch, patch panel or NIC) and the other plug to the corresponding port. Use the rotatable connector to position the cable for minimal bend and optimal routing; avoid sharp bends beyond the cable’s recommended bend radius and do not overstress the jacket. Keep shield terminations intact on shielded panels or connectors to maintain U/FTP performance.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

For best results in data centers and cramped network cabinets, route the ACT DD1905 slimline Cat6 U/FTP cable along the shortest path with gentle curves, terminate shielding correctly on metal patch panels, and avoid stacking cables directly over ventilation openings to preserve airflow and cooling.
