Description

Panduit UTP6AX0.5MRD 10Gig 0.5m Cat 6A UTP Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit UTP6AX0.5MRD is a 0.5-meter (1.6 ft) Category 6A UTP patch cord designed for high-speed network deployments. Its solid 24 AWG copper conductors and unshielded twisted pair construction support 10GBASE-T Ethernet up to 500 MHz, making it suitable for data center I/O consolidation, server virtualization, and high-performance computing environments. The red jacket simplifies cable identification and management in dense racks.

Compatibility

This patch cord is engineered to exceed ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6A and ISO 11801 Class EA standards, ensuring compatibility with all network equipment requiring Cat 6A performance. It supports IEEE 802.3af, 802.3at, and 802.3bt (Type 3 & 4) Power over Ethernet (PoE++) applications, delivering up to 60W of power. The T568A/T568B compatible wiring scheme ensures broad interoperability with existing network infrastructure.

Installation Notes

Constructed with a 0.250-inch (6.4mm) diameter CM-rated jacket for flame retardancy. The integrated tangle-free latch mechanism prevents snags during installation and simplifies cable release. Pre-installed RapidID barcodes facilitate efficient port mapping and network management when used with compatible RapidID software.
