Panduit UTP6AX40VL Category 6A 10 Gb/s UTP PC W/ EA

Overview

The Panduit UTP6AX40VL is a 40-foot Category 6A unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) patch cord designed for high-speed data transmission up to 10 Gb/s. Constructed with 24 AWG solid conductors and a CM flammability rating, it supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) standards including PoE++, IEEE 802.3bt type 3 and type 4. This cable is ideal for connecting network devices in structured cabling systems where performance and reliability are critical, such as in data centers or enterprise network closets. The solid foil tape construction limits alien crosstalk, ensuring signal integrity for demanding applications.

Compatibility

This patch cord is engineered to exceed ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6A and ISO 11801 Class EA standards, making it fully compatible with any network equipment requiring Category 6A performance. It supports IEEE 802.3af, 802.3at, and 802.3bt (Type 3 and Type 4) PoE standards, ensuring it can reliably power and connect devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones that draw significant power. The RJ45 modular plugs are designed for standard network ports.

Installation Notes

The cable diameter is 0.250 inches (6.4mm). The tangle-free latch on the modular plugs simplifies installation and disconnection, preventing snags and reducing the risk of damage during moves, adds, or changes. Pre-installed barcodes facilitate port mapping when used with RapidID software, streamlining network management and troubleshooting.
