Synergy 21 S216002 Patch cable RJ45, CAT6 250Mhz, 0.25m blue, S-STP (S / FTP), Syne content_copy

The patch cable from Synergy 21, type S216002, is a Cat6 data cable with a length of 0.25 m and a blue outer jacket. It is designed for use in network infrastructures where high data transmission performance and reliability are required. The cable features S-STP (S/FTP) shielding, in which each pair of conductors is individually shielded with a foil layer, and additionally, an external metal braid surrounds the entire cable. This construction ensures effective shielding against electromagnetic interference and enables stable data transmission even in electromagnetically noisy environments. The cable jacket is made of halogen-free material (LSZH), which releases only small amounts of toxic smoke in case of fire, making it suitable for use in enclosed spaces such as server rooms or office buildings.

Applications

The cable is intended for use in local area networks (LAN), particularly in environments requiring high bandwidth and low latency. It is suitable for connecting network devices such as switches, routers, PCs, laptops, and network printers. The cable conductor gauge of 27 AWG (single conductor size) ensures sufficient electrical conductivity, while the maximum frequency of 250 MHz enables data transmission up to 10 Gbit/s over short distances. The specified minimum bending radius of 60 mm ensures the cable is not damaged even when bent tightly, which is important during installation in rack systems or in tight spaces.

Functions and Features in Detail

At both ends of the cable, RJ45 connectors with strain relief are installed. These connectors are equipped with a metallic shielding sleeve that continues the electrical shielding and ensures a secure connection in shielded sockets. The connector contacts are gold-plated (3 µm), providing high corrosion resistance and a stable electrical connection throughout the cable’s lifetime. The connectors are designed for easy and secure locking into network ports, preventing accidental disconnection.

Technology Explained Simply

The designation S-STP (S/FTP) describes a shielding construction in which each pair of conductors is individually shielded with a metallic foil (Foil Twisted Pair), and additionally, the entire cable is surrounded by a metallic braid. This double shielding provides high protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, which is especially important at high data rates. The LSZH material used for the cable jacket is flame-retardant, low-smoke, and halogen-free, increasing safety during use in indoor environments. The frequency bandwidth of 250 MHz corresponds to Category 6 according to ISO/IEC 11801, EN50173-1, and ANSI/TIA-568-C.2, ensuring compatibility with modern network standards.

Compatibility and Accessories

The patch cable is designed for use with network devices that support RJ45 connectors. It is compatible with PoE (Power over Ethernet), PoE+, and PoE++ applications, meaning it can transmit power over the network cable. This is relevant for applications such as IP cameras, access points, or telephone systems. As accessories, cable ties in various lengths (e.g. 160 mm, 200 mm), hook-and-loop tape, and flexible cable organizers are available, which assist in proper securing and routing of the cable in rack systems or at workstations.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is performed by simply inserting the RJ45 connectors into the corresponding sockets of the network devices. The connectors feature strain relief, ensuring a secure lock. The cable conductor gauge of 27 AWG and the outer diameter of 5.8 mm allow for flexible handling, even when bent tightly. The minimum bending radius of 60 mm must be observed during installation to maintain the cable’s mechanical integrity. The cable is packaged in a PE bag with label, protecting it from contamination and mechanical damage during transport and storage.

Operational Advantages

The cable offers high data transmission rates and reliability due to the double shielding (S/FTP). The use of halogen-free material (LSZH) increases safety during use in indoor environments. The gold-plated contacts ensure long service life and stable contact. The cable packaging in a PE bag protects the cable during transport and storage.
