Networking Cable Synergy 21 S216517 30m Cat6a S/FTP Orange

The Synergy 21 S216517 30m Cat6a S/FTP Orange networking cable is a high-performance cable designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and other high-speed network applications. Constructed to Cat6a specifications with S/FTP shielding (shielded foil around each pair plus overall braid), the cable reduces crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference to maintain stable data transmission. Fitted with RJ-45 connectors on both ends and finished in a highly visible orange jacket, this cable is suited for structured cabling, backbone links, and connections where clear cable identification is required.

Advantages

The cable's Cat6a rating supports frequencies up to 500 MHz, enabling sustained high-throughput performance for data centers, server rooms, and professional network installations. S/FTP shielding provides improved protection against near-end crosstalk and external noise compared with unshielded alternatives. The 30 m length supports medium-range connections without the need for intermediate patch panels, and the durable outer jacket resists abrasion and maintains connector strain relief during installation and regular use.

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a (supports up to 10 Gbps)
• Shielding: S/FTP (foil shield on each pair plus overall braided shield)
• Length: 30 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 on both ends
• Conductor and pair arrangement: 4 twisted pairs
• Frequency rating: up to 500 MHz
• Outer jacket color: orange

How to use

Route the cable between devices ensuring minimal sharp bends and avoiding tight coils to preserve signal integrity. Terminate the RJ-45 connectors into compatible ports on network switches, servers, routers, or patch panels. If used in environments with other cabling or power lines, maintain appropriate separation or use the cable's shielding to reduce interference. Verify link speed and connectivity after installation using network testing tools or device link indicators.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid kinking the cable and keep bending radius greater than four times the cable diameter. When installing in environments with strong electromagnetic sources, ensure proper grounding of connected equipment to maximize the effectiveness of the S/FTP shielding. Use patch panels or cable management hardware for neat routing in racks and cabinets to reduce mechanical stress on connectors.
