Patch Cable ACT CAT6 U/UTP Stranded Ivory 305m

The ACT CAT6 U/UTP stranded patch cable in ivory (beige) is a 305 m spool designed for high-speed data transmission in structured cabling and patching installations. The cable follows Cat6 standards and uses stranded conductors to provide increased flexibility for patch panels, horizontal cabling, and temporary or movable connections while maintaining reliable network performance.

Advantages

The stranded construction improves flexibility and makes the cable easier to route and handle during installation. Compliance with Cat6 specifications ensures support for gigabit Ethernet and reliable signal integrity for typical LAN and patching scenarios. The ivory/beige jacket provides a neutral appearance suitable for office and residential environments.

Suitable for

• Patching between network equipment and patch panels
• Horizontal and riser cabling in office and home networks where flexibility is needed
• Temporary or movable connections in test environments and workstations

Key specifications

• Cable standard: Cat6 U/UTP

• Colour: Ivory / Beige
• Manufacturer: ACT, MPN EP384B, EAN 8716065136692

How to use

Cut the required length from the 305 m spool and prepare the cable ends according to the connector or keystone jack specifications you are using. Terminate with compatible RJ45 plugs or punch down onto patch panels following standard Cat6 wiring (T568A/T568B) and observe correct pair orientation: Blue/White-Blue, Orange/White-Orange, Green/White-Green, Brown/White-Brown. Test the completed link with an appropriate network tester to verify continuity and performance.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid tight bends and excessive pulling forces during installation, maintain separation from high-voltage power cables, and use suitable connectors and patch panels rated for Cat6. For permanent horizontal runs, consider solid-conductor Cat6 cable instead of stranded where lower attenuation and higher stability are required.
