Network patch cable Synergy21 RJ45 Cat6A S/FTP slimline round, 500 MHz, grey, 1 m (S218107)

Synergy21 RJ45 Cat6A S/FTP slimline round patch cable, 500 MHz, 1 m in grey is a shielded twisted‑pair cable intended for high‑speed Ethernet connections and structured cabling. The cable supports up to 500 MHz bandwidth and is suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links where space-saving routing and protection against electromagnetic interference are required. Its slim round jacket and S/FTP shielding combine flexible installation with reduced crosstalk and external noise sensitivity.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction provides overall foil shielding plus individually foil‑wrapped pairs to minimize alien crosstalk and EMI. A slimline round jacket reduces cable diameter for easier routing in racks, cable managers and conduits while maintaining mechanical integrity. The cable meets Cat6A performance class for high data rates and stable signal transmission up to 500 MHz, making it suitable for dense installations and environments with mixed cabling and active equipment.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in data centers and server rooms
• Structured cabling for office networks with limited cable space
• Connections near active equipment to reduce interference impact
• Patch panels, switches and uplink connections requiring shielded cabling

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6A, performance up to 500 MHz
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil + individually foil‑wrapped pairs)
• Conductor type: twisted pair; stranded conductors for patching flexibility
• Connector: RJ45 on both ends with booted slim plugs
• Jacket: slim round design, grey color, optimized for tight routing
• Length: 1 m
• Typical use: horizontal and patch cabling for high‑speed Ethernet

How to use

Insert the RJ45 plugs into compatible shielded ports on switches, patch panels or network devices, ensuring the connectors are fully seated and any connector boots do not obstruct the port. For shielded installations, verify that device and patch panel shields are properly grounded so the S/FTP shielding can function correctly. Use the cable for short patch runs, uplinks or connections inside racks and cabinets where the 1 m length provides a tidy, low‑tension link.

Usage recommendations

Avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force during installation; maintain the cable's minimum bend radius as specified by standard cabling practice. Keep the cable routed separately or properly shielded from high‑power electrical lines and large bundles of unshielded cables to preserve performance. For shielded networks, ensure consistent grounding at patch panels and equipment to prevent ground loops and ensure EMI protection.
