Panduit UTP6AX0.5M Cat 6A Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit UTP6AX0.5M is a 0.5-meter Category 6A unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cord designed for high-speed data transmission. Its solid foil tape construction limits alien crosstalk, ensuring reliable 10 Gb/s performance crucial for data center I/O consolidation, server virtualization, and high-speed computing environments. The tangle-free latch simplifies moves, adds, and changes, while pre-installed RapidID barcodes streamline port mapping.

Compatibility

This patch cord is engineered to exceed all ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6A and ISO 11801 Class EA standards up to 500 MHz. It supports IEEE 802.3af, 802.3at, and 802.3bt (Type 3 and Type 4) Power over Ethernet applications, making it compatible with a wide range of network devices and PoE-enabled equipment. It is wired for compatibility with both T568A and T568B schemes.

Installation Notes

Constructed with 24 AWG solid conductors and rated CM for riser applications, this cable is suitable for in-wall installations. The integral tangle-free latch prevents snags and ensures a secure connection release, simplifying network infrastructure management. Its 0.250-inch (6.4mm) diameter facilitates easier routing in dense cable pathways.
