Overview
The Panduit NK6APC50RD is a 50-foot, red, shielded Category 6A Ethernet patch cord designed for enterprise network infrastructure. It terminates in standard RJ45 male connectors on both ends, utilizing copper conductors and a CM/LSZH jacket for plenum or riser installations where fire safety codes are critical. This cable is built to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds over its 50-foot length, ensuring reliable data transmission for demanding applications.
Compatibility
This patch cord is compatible with any network device featuring standard RJ45 Ethernet ports, including network switches, routers, servers, workstations, IP cameras, and wireless access points. It supports T568A and T568B wiring schemes, ensuring broad compatibility with existing network infrastructure and standards. The Cat6A rating ensures performance up to 10 Gbps, making it suitable for high-bandwidth applications and future-proofing network connections.
Installation Notes
The CM/LSZH (Communications Multipurpose/Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket material is designed for installations where fire safety and minimal smoke emission are paramount, such as in commercial buildings and data centers. The shielded construction helps mitigate electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, which is crucial in high-density environments or near power cables. Ensure proper grounding of the shielded system to maximize interference protection.
