Patch cable Cat.6 (Class E) Datwyler, S/FTP, CU 7702 flex LS0H, Hirose TM21 connector, 3 m

Shielded Cat.6 (Class E) patch cable from Datwyler designed for reliable, high-performance Ethernet connections. The cable features S/FTP construction with individual pair foil and overall braid shielding, a flexible CU 7702 copper conductor and an LS0H jacket. Terminated with a Hirose TM21 connector and supplied in a 3 m length, this cable is suitable for structured cabling links, patch panels and direct connections to active network equipment where Category 6 performance and enhanced electromagnetic protection are required.

Advantages

The S/FTP design provides effective protection against electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, maintaining signal integrity in environments with multiple cables and electronic devices. The CU 7702 flex conductor offers good conductivity and bending properties for frequent routing in racks and cable management systems. The LS0H jacket reduces smoke and toxic emissions in case of fire, making the cable suitable for indoor installations where low-smoke, halogen-free materials are preferred. The Hirose TM21 connector delivers secure mating and consistent electrical contact for stable data transmission.

Suitable for

• Structured cabling backbone and horizontal links
• Patch panels and network racks
• Connections to switches, routers and servers in office and data center environments
• Environments requiring foil and braid shielding to limit EMI
• Indoor installations where low-smoke, halogen-free materials are specified

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.6 (Class E) performance
• Shielding: S/FTP — foil around each pair and overall braided shield
• Conductor: Copper CU 7702 flex
• Connector type: Hirose TM21
• Jacket material: LS0H (low smoke, zero halogen)
• Length: 3 m

How to use

Plug one end of the patch cable into the appropriate port on your switch, router, patch panel or device and the other end into the corresponding port. Ensure connectors are fully seated and cable routing avoids sharp bends or kinks to preserve performance. Use cable management points in racks or trunking to secure the cable and maintain separation from power cables where practical to reduce potential interference.

Usage recommendations

For optimal Category 6 performance, keep cable runs within recommended lengths for patch connections, avoid tight bend radii, and maintain proper shielding continuity by ensuring connectors and patch panels are compatible with S/FTP cable construction.
