Panduit UTP6AX0.2MBU Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit UTP6AX0.2MBU is a 0.2-meter (0.7 ft) Cat 6A UTP patch cord designed for high-speed network deployments. It utilizes 24 AWG solid conductors and unshielded twisted pairs to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet transmission, making it suitable for connecting network devices in server racks or patch panel terminations where short, reliable links are required. The integrated RapidID barcode simplifies port mapping and asset management within a Panduit network infrastructure.

Compatibility

This UTP6AX0.2MBU patch cord is engineered to meet or exceed ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6A and ISO 11801 Class EA standards, ensuring compatibility with Cat 6A network infrastructure. It supports IEEE 802.3af, 802.3at, and 802.3bt (Type 3 & 4) Power over Ethernet (PoE++) standards, delivering up to 100W for powered devices without signal degradation. It is designed for use with standard RJ45 modular connectors found on network switches, routers, and endpoints.

Installation Notes

Constructed with a CM (Communications Multipurpose) flammability rating, this cable is suitable for use in risers and general-purpose horizontal applications according to the National Electrical Code. The cable features a tangle-free latch on the RJ45 connectors, which prevents snags during installation and removal, streamlining moves, adds, and changes. The solid conductor construction provides robust performance but is less flexible than stranded conductors, making it best suited for fixed-length, in-rack connections rather than frequent flexing or movement.
