Description

Panduit UTP6AX18BU Category 6A 10 Gb/s UTP PC W/ EA

Overview

The Panduit UTP6AX18BU is an 18-foot Category 6A unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cord designed to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet transmission. Its construction with 24 AWG solid conductors and high-performance modular plugs ensures reliable data connectivity for demanding network environments, including surveillance systems requiring high bandwidth for multiple HD streams. The integrated tangle-free latch simplifies installation and maintenance by preventing snags and allowing for quick release.

Compatibility

This patch cord is engineered to meet or exceed ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6A and ISO 11801 Class EA standards, making it compatible with all Category 6A network infrastructure. It supports IEEE 802.3af (PoE), 802.3at (PoE+), and 802.3bt (PoE++ up to Type 4) power delivery standards, ensuring it can power and connect devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, and other PoE-enabled equipment without requiring separate power supplies. The cable construction is rated CM for use in riser and general-purpose horizontal applications.

Installation Notes

The Panduit UTP6AX18BU features solid conductors, which offer superior performance and alien crosstalk suppression compared to stranded conductors, but are less flexible. It is rated for 2500 mating cycles, ensuring longevity in environments with frequent moves, adds, or changes. The cable diameter is 0.250 inches (6.4mm). The product includes pre-installed barcodes for use with Panduit's RapidID software, streamlining port mapping and network documentation.
