Network Cable Synergy 21 S217924 RJ45 CAT6A 500Mhz 1m White

The Synergy 21 S217924 RJ45 CAT6A network cable is a 1 m patch cable designed for high-speed data transmission up to 500 MHz. It features a slimline round jacket in white and a foil and braid S/FTP (S-STP) shielding scheme that reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. The cable uses fine AWG28 conductors and a flexible TPE/LSZH outer sheath for easier routing in confined spaces, delivering a reliable link for Ethernet networks, PoE devices and structured cabling installations.

Advantages

This CAT6A cable supports frequencies up to 500 MHz, enabling stable 10 Gigabit Ethernet links at short to medium distances. The S/FTP shielding provides improved protection against external noise compared with unshielded cables, while the slimline round construction with a small diameter keeps cable management neater and allows use in dense cable runs. The flexible TPE/LSZH jacket helps with bending and installation in patch panels, under desks or within conduits, and the use of AWG28 conductor strands balances flexibility with signal quality.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections in offices, server rooms and home networks
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices such as IP phones and wireless access points
• Patch panels, switches and desktop connections where a 1 m cable length is required

When it may not be suitable

This 1 m cable may not be appropriate when longer cable runs are required; for backbone or long-distance horizontal runs, a longer CAT6A or fibre solution should be chosen. Although the S/FTP shielding reduces interference, installation in environments with extreme electromagnetic noise or where specific industrial certifications are required may need purpose-built industrial cables.

Key specifications

• Cable category: CAT6A, performance to 500 MHz
• Connector type: RJ45
• Length: 1 metre
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with individual pair foil)
• Conductor size: AWG28, stranded
• Jacket material: TPE/LSZH (superflex)
• Design: slimline round, small diameter for dense routing

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the network port of your switch, router or device and the other end into the target port. Ensure connectors click into place and that both endpoints negotiate the intended link speed. For PoE devices, verify the power class and switch capability before connecting. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and keep it separate from high-voltage power lines to maintain signal integrity and minimize interference.

What to consider before purchase

• Required cable length for your installation; this product is 1 m long
• Whether shielded cable is necessary for your environment to reduce EMI
• Compatibility with your devices and required network speeds (supports up to 10 Gbps at appropriate distances)
• Local fire-safety or building-code requirements regarding jacket material (LSZH where applicable)

Usage recommendations

For best performance, avoid tight bends (respect the minimum bend radius), maintain a separation from mains cables, and use shielded connectors or grounded patch panels when integrating in shielded installations. Test link speed after installation to confirm 10G or desired bandwidth operation.
