Panduit UTP6AX13MBL Category 6A Patch Cord

Panduit UTP6AX13MBL Category 6A Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit UTP6AX13MBL is a 13-meter (42.7 ft) Category 6A unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) patch cord. Designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks, its 24 AWG solid conductors and foil tape shielding limit alien crosstalk, ensuring signal integrity for high-bandwidth applications like video surveillance and data center connectivity. The tangle-free latch on the RJ45 connectors streamlines installation and maintenance, simplifying moves, adds, and changes in dense network environments. Its CM flammability rating meets building code requirements for riser installations.

Compatibility

This patch cord is engineered to exceed ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6A and ISO 11801 Class EA standards, making it compatible with all network equipment requiring Category 6A performance. It supports IEEE 802.3af (PoE), 802.3at (PoE+), and 802.3bt (PoE++) Type 3 and Type 4 power delivery, up to 2500 connection cycles, ensuring reliable power and data transmission for PoE-enabled devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones. The RJ45 modular plugs are standard for most network interfaces.

Installation Notes

The cable features a solid conductor construction, which offers superior performance but is less flexible than stranded cable; avoid sharp bends or excessive pulling force to prevent conductor damage. The tangle-free latch requires a simple press for release, preventing accidental disconnections and simplifying port management. Pre-installed RapidID barcodes facilitate easy port mapping with compatible RapidID software, reducing troubleshooting time.
