Networking cable ACT DD1902 Cat6 U/FTP (STP) 2 m RJ-45 to RJ-45 Black

ACT DD1902 is a 2 m Cat6 U/FTP (STP) slimline network 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 installations in racks, cabinets and tight spaces while maintaining Gigabit-capable performance. The cable uses full copper 32 AWG conductors and 50 µ gold-plated RJ45 contacts for reliable connectivity. Cables are 100% tested and covered by a 5-year warranty.

Advantages

The slim 4 mm outer jacket improves airflow in server racks and network cabinets compared with standard CAT6A cables, helping cooling efficiency. Angled, 360° rotatable RJ45 connectors allow neat routing in confined spaces without compromising the bending radius. Full copper 32 AWG conductors and gold-plated contacts provide good conductivity, corrosion resistance and long-term signal integrity.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

This slimline cable is not intended for installations that require very high mechanical protection or frequent heavy flexing; its thinner jacket provides less physical robustness than standard, thicker patch cords. For runs that exceed typical patch cable lengths or where waterproofing and extreme abrasion resistance are needed, an installation-grade or outdoor-rated cable should be used instead.

Key specifications

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 angled plug to your network switch, patch panel or device and the other to the corresponding port. Use the rotatable connector orientation to route the cable along cabinet sides or behind equipment for a tidy installation. Avoid sharp kinks and respect the recommended bend radius for best performance. The slim jacket helps place multiple cables together while maintaining airflow.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

Use the angled, rotatable RJ45 connectors to route the patch cable along rack rails or equipment edges to minimise strain on ports and improve cabinet airflow; for permanent or exposed installations consider a heavier-duty cable or protective conduits.
