Patch Cable Datwyler Cat.6 S/FTP (Class E), CU 7702 flex LS0H, Hirose TM21, yellow, 0.5 m

Shielded S/FTP patch cable Datwyler Cat.6 (Class E) with CU 7702 flex conductor and LS0H jacket, fitted with Hirose TM21 connectors. The 0.5 m yellow cable is intended for short interconnections in structured networks and active equipment where improved crosstalk protection, reduced electromagnetic emissions and low-smoke, halogen-free materials are required. This Cat.6 S/FTP cable supports high-speed Ethernet links and maintains signal integrity in environments with potential interference.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding configuration provides individual foil around each pair plus an overall braid, reducing near-end and far-end crosstalk and limiting electromagnetic emissions. The CU 7702 flex conductor ensures reliable electrical performance and flexibility for tight routing and frequent handling. The LS0H jacket minimizes smoke and toxic gas emission in case of fire, meeting safety requirements for indoor installations. Hirose TM21 connectors offer secure mating, consistent contact quality and compatibility with equipment that uses the TM21 interface.

Suitable for

• Short patching between switches, patch panels and routers in data cabinets
• Connections in office and server room structured cabling
• High-speed Ethernet applications up to Cat.6/Class E performance
• Installations requiring low-smoke, halogen-free materials and reduced emissions

How to use

Use the patch cable to interconnect network equipment by inserting the Hirose TM21 connectors into compatible ports on switches, patch panels, routers or network interface devices. Ensure connectors are fully seated and cable routing does not exceed the recommended bend radius for flexible copper conductors. For optimal performance, maintain proper cable separation from strong power sources and routing that minimizes mechanical stress on the connectors and jacket.

Usage recommendations

For best results in structured cabling, label both ends to match port assignments, avoid sharp bends and secure excess length to prevent strain. Use shielded termination environments and ensure proper grounding of equipment racks and cable shields to realise the full benefits of S/FTP shielding and to reduce interference.
