Panduit UTP6AX7 Category 6A 10 Gb/s UTP PC W/ EA

Overview

The Panduit UTP6AX7 is a 7-foot Category 6A UTP patch cord designed for high-speed data center applications. Its 24 AWG solid conductor construction and CM flammability rating make it suitable for in-wall installations and environments requiring robust network performance. This cord ensures reliable 10 Gb/s transmission and supports advanced PoE++ (802.3bt) power delivery, streamlining deployments by eliminating the need for separate power supplies for compatible devices.

Compatibility

This patch cord is engineered to exceed ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6A and ISO 11801 Class EA standards, guaranteeing performance for 10GBASE-T Ethernet. It is compatible with T568A and T568B wiring schemes and supports IEEE 802.3af, 802.3at, and 802.3bt Type 3 and Type 4 PoE applications. The solid foil tape construction limits alien crosstalk, crucial for maintaining signal integrity in dense data center server virtualization and backbone aggregation setups.

Installation Notes

The UTP6AX7 features a tangle-free latch design that simplifies moves, adds, and changes by preventing snags and ensuring a fast, secure release. Pre-installed barcodes on the cable facilitate port mapping with RapidID software, reducing installation time and potential errors in complex network infrastructures. The cable diameter is 0.250 inches (6.4mm).
