Panduit UTP6AX17BL Cat 6A Patch Cord
Overview
The Panduit UTP6AX17BL is a 17-foot Category 6A UTP patch cord designed for high-speed data transmission. Constructed with 24 AWG solid conductors and high-performance modular plugs, this black cord limits alien crosstalk, ensuring reliable 10 Gb/s performance critical for data centers and enterprise networks. Its tangle-free latch simplifies moves, adds, and changes, streamlining network infrastructure management. The integrated barcode supports RapidID port mapping, enhancing asset tracking and troubleshooting.
Compatibility
This UTP6AX17BL patch cord is built to exceed ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6A standards, making it compatible with all Category 6A network infrastructure. It supports IEEE 802.3af, 802.3at, and 802.3bt Type 3 and Type 4 Power over Ethernet (PoE++) standards, ensuring it can handle the power requirements of modern network devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones without signal degradation.
Installation Notes
The cable is rated CM for use in riser applications, providing a balance between performance and safety. It meets UL 1863 standards for communications circuit accessories. The solid foil tape construction is key to mitigating alien crosstalk, a common issue in high-density 10 Gb/s deployments. The tangle-free latch design facilitates quick and easy disconnection, reducing installation time and preventing damage to ports or connectors.
