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

Panduit UTP6AX6 Category 6A 10 Gb/s UTP PC W/ EA

Overview

The Panduit UTP6AX6 is a 6-foot Category 6A UTP patch cord designed for high-speed data transmission up to 10 Gb/s. Its solid 24 AWG unshielded twisted pair construction and CM flammability rating make it suitable for in-wall installations and environments requiring adherence to specific fire safety standards. The integrated tangle-free latch simplifies moves, adds, and changes, reducing deployment friction in data centers and enterprise networks.

Compatibility

This patch cord meets or exceeds ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6A and ISO 11801 Class EA standards, ensuring compatibility with all 10GBASE-T Ethernet applications. It supports IEEE 802.3af, 802.3at, and 802.3bt (Type 3 and Type 4) Power over Ethernet (PoE) standards, allowing it to deliver up to 60W of power over the network cable without degradation of data performance. The cord is wired for compatibility with both T568A and T568B termination schemes.

Installation Notes

Constructed with solid 24 AWG conductors, this patch cord is intended for fixed installations rather than frequent flexing. The tangle-free latch design aids in quick disconnection without damaging the connector or adjacent ports. Pre-installed RapidID barcodes facilitate efficient port mapping and network management when used with compatible RapidID software solutions.
