Panduit UTP6AX27RD Category 6A 10 Gb/s UTP PC W/ EA

Panduit UTP6AX27RD Category 6A 10 Gb/s UTP PC W/ EA

Overview

The Panduit UTP6AX27RD is a 27-foot Category 6A UTP patch cord designed for high-speed data transmission up to 10 Gb/s. This red cord utilizes 24 AWG solid conductors and high-performance modular plugs to ensure signal integrity and minimize alien crosstalk, critical for demanding network environments like data centers or enterprise LANs. Its construction supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) up to PoE++ (802.3bt) standards, enabling simultaneous data and power delivery to devices.

Compatibility

This UTP6AX27RD patch cord is engineered to exceed ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6A and ISO 11801 Class EA specifications. It is compatible with any network equipment requiring Category 6A performance, including 10 Gigabit Ethernet switches, routers, servers, and workstations. The RJ45 modular plugs ensure interoperability with standard network ports. Its rating for 2500 cycles with IEEE 802.3af, 802.3at, and 802.3bt types 3 and 4 makes it suitable for powering PoE-enabled devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones.

Installation Notes

Constructed with a 0.250-inch (6.4mm) diameter CM-rated cable, this patch cord is suitable for in-wall installations where plenum-rated cable is not required. The solid foil tape construction limits alien crosstalk, contributing to its 10 Gb/s performance. The tangle-free latch on the modular plugs simplifies connection and disconnection, preventing snags and streamlining network maintenance, moves, adds, and changes. The integrated barcode for RapidID software facilitates simple port mapping and network management.
