Panduit UTP6AX13MYL Category 6A 10 Gb/s UTP PC W/ EA

Overview

The Panduit UTP6AX13MYL is a 13-meter (42.7 ft) Category 6A unshielded, twisted-pair, solid copper patch cord. Designed for high-speed data networks, it ensures reliable 10 Gb/s transmission by limiting alien crosstalk with its solid foil tape construction. The integrated tangle-free latch on the RJ45 connectors streamlines moves, adds, and changes, preventing snags and ensuring a secure, fast release. This cord is ideal for connecting network devices in data centers, enterprise networks, and structured cabling deployments where performance and ease of maintenance are critical. Its CM flammability rating suits in-wall or riser applications.

Compatibility

This Category 6A patch cord is engineered to exceed all ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6A and ISO 11801 Class EA standards. It is compatible with network equipment requiring 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. The modular plugs are rated for 2500 mating cycles with IEEE 802.3af, 802.3at, and 802.3bt type 3 and type 4 Power over Ethernet (PoE++) standards, ensuring robust power delivery to compatible devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones without signal degradation. It meets ANSI/TIA-1096-A requirements and IEC 60603-7 specifications.

Installation Notes

Constructed with 24 AWG solid conductors, this patch cord is designed for fixed installations and should not be subjected to repeated flexing or tight bending radii beyond its CM rating. The tangle-free latch mechanism requires a simple push-to-release action, avoiding the need for specialized tools. Pre-installed barcodes on the connectors facilitate easy port mapping and network management using Panduit's RapidID software, simplifying inventory and troubleshooting processes.
