The patch cable from Synergy 21, manufacturer's number S216011, is a data cable of Category 6, designed for use in network infrastructures. It has a length of 0.5 metres and is available in yellow. The cable is constructed as S-STP (S/FTP), meaning it features both pair-level foil shielding and an outer braid shielding. These shielding systems ensure high immunity against electromagnetic interference and simultaneously prevent signal radiation from the cable, which is particularly advantageous in critical network environments. The shielding is certified according to ISO/IEC 11801, EN50173-1, and ANSI/TIA-568-C.2, guaranteeing compliance with international standards for network cables.

Patch cables of this type are typically used in network cabling to connect switches, routers, PCs, or other network devices. The cable type is round and has an outer diameter of 5.80 mm. The individual conductors have a gauge of 27 AWG, ensuring sufficient conductivity for transmitted data. The maximum bandwidth is 250 MHz, supporting the data transfer rates of Category 6 and ensuring stable, high-quality data transmission.

S/FTP shielding provides a double layer of protection: each pair of conductors is individually shielded with foil, and the entire cable is additionally enclosed in a metallic braid. This construction minimizes interference from external electromagnetic fields and prevents crosstalk between conductor pairs. Shielding is especially important in environments with high electromagnetic interference, such as server rooms or industrial facilities.

The cable jacket is made from halogen-free material (LSZH), meaning no toxic gases are released in case of fire. This increases safety in enclosed spaces and is particularly required in public or industrial facilities. The cable jacket is also flame-retardant (IEC60332-1-2) and meets requirements for low smoke emission (IEC 61034) and halogen-free composition (IEC 60754-2).

The connectors at both ends are RJ45 connectors with strain relief, ensuring a secure and stable connection. The connectors are fitted with a PVC overmold, providing mechanical stability and better grip in the network port. The contact surfaces are gold-plated (3 µm), offering high electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance. The pin assignment follows the 568B standard, ensuring compatibility with most network devices.

The cable supports PoE (Power over Ethernet), including PoE+, PoE++, and PoE, meaning it enables power delivery over the network cable. This is particularly useful for devices such as IP cameras, access points, or telephone systems that are powered via the network. Power is delivered over the same cable that carries data, simplifying installation and reducing the number of required cables.

The operating temperature of the cable ranges from -20 °C to +75 °C, allowing use in a wide range of environments, from indoor spaces to industrial facilities. The cable is designed for indoor use, and the halogen-free jacket also makes it suitable for use in enclosed rooms. The minimum bending radius is 60 mm, enabling flexible handling and installation.

The cable is supplied in a blister pack from Synergy 21, which protects the cable during transport and storage. The packaging includes a label with product information. The packaging is suitable for retail and professional use.

Compatible accessories include cable ties in various lengths and materials, cable organizers, and Velcro tape, which can be used for proper securing and routing of the cable in racks or network rooms. These accessories are also from Synergy 21 and enable structured and neat cabling.

Compatibility is ensured with all devices supporting the standards ISO/IEC 11801, EN50173-1, and ANSI/TIA-568-C.2. The cable is designed for networks with bandwidth up to 250 MHz and is suitable for applications requiring high data rates and reliability. PoE support extends the application range to devices powered via the network.

Operational advantages include high interference immunity due to double shielding, easy installation thanks to RJ45 connectors with strain relief, and PoE support, which reduces the number of required power supply cables. The halogen-free jacket increases safety in case of fire, and the robust construction ensures a long service life for the cable.

The use of this patch cable is particularly suitable in environments where high data integrity and reliability are required, such as office buildings, server rooms, or industrial facilities. The combination of S/FTP shielding, PoE support, and halogen-free jacket makes it a reliable and safe network cable for professional applications.
