Patch Cable ACT CAT5E F/UTP LSZH Stranded Blue 100m

The ACT CAT5E F/UTP LSZH stranded patch cable is a 100 m blue network cable designed for reliable Ethernet data transmission with foil shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference. The cable uses stranded copper conductors and an LSZH jacket to limit smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire, making it suitable for installations where fire safety is a concern.

Advantages

Foil (ALU) shielding provides improved protection against external interference compared with unshielded cables. Stranded copper conductors offer flexibility for routing and installation in patch panels and equipment racks. The LSZH outer jacket reduces smoke and toxic gas release in the event of a fire. A 100 m spool length allows long runs without joins and is convenient for bulk installation projects.

Suitable for

• Office and data center patching
• Horizontal cabling in commercial buildings
• Temporary or permanent network links where low smoke emission is required

How to use

Measure and cut the required length from the spool, respecting the 100 m maximum continuous length per spool. Strip the outer jacket carefully to avoid nicking the stranded conductors, then terminate the individual pairs using appropriate RJ45 connectors or patch panel modules rated for CAT5E. Ensure the foil shielding is grounded at one end where required by installation standards to maintain effective interference protection.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid tight bends and excessive pulling tension during installation, maintain separation from high-voltage power lines to reduce crosstalk, and follow local fire-safety and cabling standards when using LSZH cables in public or confined spaces.
