Panduit UTP6AX3MYL Category 6A 10 Gb/s UTP PC W/ EA
Overview
The Panduit UTP6AX3MYL is a 3-meter Category 6A unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cord designed for high-speed network infrastructure. It supports 10GBASE-T Ethernet and is constructed with 24 AWG solid conductors, featuring high-performance modular plugs. The integrated solid foil tape construction effectively limits alien crosstalk, ensuring reliable 10 Gb/s transmission performance critical for data center applications like server virtualization and backbone aggregation. The tangle-free latch simplifies connection and disconnection, streamlining network maintenance and configuration changes.
Compatibility
This Panduit UTP6AX3MYL patch cord is engineered to exceed ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6A and ISO 11801 Class EA standards, making it compatible with any network equipment requiring Category 6A performance. It supports IEEE 802.3af/at and 802.3bt types 3 and 4 PoE applications, ensuring it can power devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones without requiring separate power supplies. The cable is wired to be compatible with both T568A and T568B wiring schemes, offering broad compatibility with existing network infrastructure and patch panels.
Installation Notes
The UTP6AX3MYL features a 0.250-inch (6.4mm) diameter cable and a tangle-free latch that prevents snags during installation and release. Pre-installed RapidID barcodes facilitate simple port mapping when used with RapidID software, significantly reducing troubleshooting and documentation time in large deployments. The CM flammability rating indicates suitability for use in riser pathways.
