Patch Cable ACT CAT6 U/UTP Stranded Blue 100 m

The ACT CAT6 U/UTP stranded patch cable in blue is a 100 m network cable designed for high-speed data transmission. It conforms to Cat6 standards and supports bandwidths up to 250 MHz. The stranded conductor construction increases flexibility and simplifies routing in installations where frequent movement or bending is expected.

Advantages

Stranded AWG24 conductors provide better flexibility compared with solid cores while maintaining Cat6 performance characteristics. The U/UTP (unshielded) design is suitable for typical home and office environments where additional shielding is not required. The 100 m reel format is practical for longer runs and bulk installation needs.

Suitable for

• Connecting routers, switches and computers
• Patch panels and patching bays in offices
• Home networking and multimedia connections
• Temporary or movable network connections where flexibility is needed

How to use

Cut and terminate the cable to required lengths using appropriate RJ45 connectors designed for stranded cable or use the cable as a bulk run from the 100 m reel. Follow standard wiring (T568A or T568B) during termination, matching the conductor colour pairs. Test each terminated cable with a network tester to verify continuity and correct pairing before placing into service.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable parallel and close to power lines or large electrical equipment; maintain recommended bend radius for AWG24 stranded cable and use proper strain relief at termination points. Choose appropriate RJ45 plugs specified for stranded conductors to ensure reliable connections.
