Panduit UTP6AX3MRD Category 6A 10 Gb/s UTP PC W/ EA

Panduit UTP6AX3MRD Category 6A 10 Gb/s UTP PC W/ EA

Overview

The Panduit UTP6AX3MRD is a 3-meter (9.8 ft) Category 6A UTP patch cord in red, designed for high-speed data transmission up to 10 Gb/s. Its solid 24 AWG construction with a tangle-free latch and pre-installed RapidID barcodes simplifies network management for data center I/O consolidation, server virtualization, and backbone aggregation. This cable supports IEEE 802.3bt types 3 and 4 PoE applications, ensuring reliable power delivery for network devices.

Compatibility

This Category 6A patch cord is engineered to exceed ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6A and ISO 11801 Class EA standards, ensuring interoperability with all network equipment requiring 10GBASE-T Ethernet connectivity. It is wired for compatibility with both T568A and T568B wiring schemes, making it suitable for integration into existing or new network infrastructures. The cable's construction supports IEEE 802.3af, 802.3at, and 802.3bt PoE applications, making it compatible with PoE-powered devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones that draw power over the Ethernet cable.

Installation Notes

The solid foil tape construction limits alien crosstalk, which is critical for maintaining 10 Gb/s performance in dense network environments. The tangle-free latch on the modular plugs ensures a fast, snag-free release, streamlining moves, adds, and changes in rack installations. Pre-installed RapidID barcodes facilitate quick port mapping when used with compatible RapidID software, reducing deployment and troubleshooting time.
