DRAKA S/FTP Cat.6A Patch Cable, 15 m, Yellow, LSZH, 10G, PoE++ (21.05.2152)

With a 500 MHz bandwidth and full 10GBASE-T support, this yellow DRAKA patch cable delivers high-speed, interference-free connectivity for demanding network environments. The S/FTP construction—individually foiled pairs plus an overall copper braid—provides superior shielding against EMI and crosstalk, making it ideal for data centers, server rooms, and industrial applications where signal integrity is critical.

Overview

The DRAKA 21.05.2152 is a 15-meter Cat.6A S/FTP patch cable terminated with gold-plated RJ45 connectors. It features stranded copper conductors (AWG 26/7) for flexibility and durability, and a low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) jacket that enhances fire safety in enclosed spaces. The cable supports Power over Ethernet up to PoE++ (IEEE 802.3bt), enabling simultaneous data and high-power delivery to devices like access points, IP cameras, and LED lighting.

What stands out

• Category 6A performance with 500 MHz bandwidth for 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 100 meters.
• S/FTP shielding: individual pair foil (PiMF) plus overall copper braid for maximum EMI immunity.
• LSZH jacket: low smoke, zero halogen, flame-retardant per IEC 60332-1-2 for safer installations.
• Gold-plated contacts (50µ") ensure reliable, corrosion-resistant connections over thousands of mating cycles.
• Supports PoE, PoE+, and PoE++ (up to 100W) for powering high-wattage devices over the same cable.
• Stranded copper conductors provide excellent flexibility for frequent patching and tight bends.
• Compliant with ISO/IEC 11801, EN 50173, RoHS, and REACH standards.
