Panduit UTP6AX11M 11M Cat 6A UTP Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit UTP6AX11M is an 11-meter, 24 AWG Category 6A unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) patch cord designed for high-speed data networks. Its solid construction and foil tape shield limit alien crosstalk, ensuring reliable 10 Gb/s transmission critical for IP surveillance systems and data centers. The tangle-free latch mechanism simplifies installation and maintenance by preventing snags and enabling fast release, which streamlines moves, adds, and changes in dense network environments. Pre-installed RapidID barcodes facilitate easy port mapping with compatible software.

Compatibility

This patch cord is engineered to exceed ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6A standards, ensuring compatibility with all Category 6A network infrastructure. It meets ISO 11801 Class EA requirements for European deployments. The connectors are rated for 2500 cycles with IEEE 802.3af, 802.3at, and 802.3bt Type 3 and Type 4 Power over Ethernet standards, making it suitable for powering high-demand devices like PTZ cameras or Wi-Fi access points without signal degradation. It is also compliant with ANSI/TIA-1096-A and IEC 60603-7 specifications.

Installation Notes

The cable jacket is rated CM (Communications Multipurpose), suitable for use in riser pathways. The solid conductor construction requires careful handling to avoid kinking, which could impede performance. The tangle-free latch feature on the RJ45 connectors ensures secure engagement but requires a specific release action to disengage, preventing accidental disconnections. The integrated RapidID barcodes are designed for use with Panduit's RapidID software for automated network documentation.
