This product is a Cat6 patch cable from Synergy 21, manufacturer's number S216177V2, with a cable length of 10 metres. It is a flat, slim cable with an outer diameter of 2.0 mm (height) and 6.0 mm (width), specifically designed for use in confined spaces such as server racks, enclosures, or for cabling under furniture. The cable is
white and features a
PVC jacket, providing good mechanical stability and fire protection. The cable construction is
UTP (U/UTP), i.e. unshielded, which is sufficient for standard applications in office environments. The individual conductors have a gauge of
32 AWG, ensuring adequate conductivity for the intended data transmission rates.
Applications
This patch cable is suitable for use in local area networks (LAN), particularly in offices, server rooms, or for connecting network devices such as switches, routers, PCs, or network printers. The flat design allows for compact installation, helping to avoid cable clutter and maintaining accessibility to other devices or sockets. The 10 m cable length provides sufficient reach for typical arrangements in small to medium-sized networks.
Functions and Equipment in Detail
At both ends of the cable,
RJ45 connectors with a short form factor are installed, featuring a latch nose protection. This design reduces space requirements in patch panels or network devices and facilitates easy insertion and removal, especially in densely populated enclosures. The connectors are transparent blue and consist of an unshielded 8P8C plug with gold-plated contacts, ensuring a reliable electrical connection.
Technology Explained Simply
The cable is designed for a bandwidth of
250 MHz, meeting the requirements of Category 6. This enables data transmission rates up to 1 Gbit/s over the full length of 10 metres. Compliance with standards
ISO/IEC 11801,
EN 50173-1, and
ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 ensures interoperability with other network devices and adherence to international standards. The cable supports
PoE (Power over Ethernet) according to IEEE 802.3af, allowing it to also supply power to end devices such as IP cameras or VoIP phones. The operating temperature range is from -10 °C to +60 °C, and the storage temperature range is from -20 °C to +75 °C.
Compatibility and Accessories
The patch cable is compatible with all devices that support an RJ45 port and comply with the Cat6 standard. It can be used in combination with other products from the Synergy 21 range, for example cable ties or Velcro straps, for proper securing and routing of cables. Suitable accessories include cable ties in various lengths (160 mm, 200 mm), Velcro tape (25 m, 20 mm wide), and cable tie Velcro (150 mm, 12 mm wide), contributing to structured cabling.
Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by simply inserting the RJ45 connectors into the corresponding sockets of the network devices. The short connector design and latch nose protection facilitate cabling in confined spaces. The flat design allows for surface mounting, enabling the cable to be routed under tables, in drawers, or along walls without affecting the surrounding environment. Packaging is done in a blister pack from Synergy 21, ensuring protection of the cable during transport and storage.
Operational Advantages
The flat design reduces space requirements and improves cable management clarity. PoE support expands application possibilities, as no additional power supply is required for compatible end devices. Compliance with international standards ensures a reliable and stable network connection. The cable is designed for indoor use and is suitable for standard IT infrastructures in offices and small networks.
