Panduit UTP6AX5VL Patch Cord

Panduit UTP6AX5VL Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit TX6A™ UTP Patch Cord, model UTP6AX5VL, is a 5-foot, violet, 24 AWG solid copper cable designed for high-performance network deployments. Its construction limits alien crosstalk, ensuring reliable 10 Gb/s transmission required for modern data center and enterprise network backbones. The tangle-free latch simplifies moves, adds, and changes, streamlining infrastructure management.

Compatibility

This patch cord is engineered to 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, 802.3at, and 802.3bt (Type 3 and Type 4) Power over Ethernet standards, ensuring it can reliably deliver power to PoE-enabled devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones without performance degradation. The cable is rated for 2500 mating cycles, indicating robust physical layer connectivity.

Installation Notes

Constructed with a CM flammability rating, this cable is suitable for use in pathways and spaces that require compliance with Article 800 of the National Electrical Code. The solid conductor gauge (24 AWG) provides a stable connection but requires careful handling to avoid kinking. The integrated tangle-free latch on the modular plug simplifies disconnection and reconnection, preventing snagging during maintenance.
