Panduit UTP6AL3MBU Copper Patch Cord, CAT 6A, Blue, UTP, LSZH

Overview

The Panduit UTP6AL3MBU is a 3-meter, Category 6A, Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) patch cord with a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket. This cable is designed to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T) applications, ensuring high-speed and reliable data transmission in environments where fire safety and low smoke emission are critical. Its blue color aids in network cable identification and management.

Compatibility

This patch cord is compatible with all standard networking equipment featuring RJ45 connectors, including switches, routers, network interface cards (NICs), and patch panels that support Category 6A performance. It is suitable for use with network devices from manufacturers such as Cisco, Juniper, Arista, and any other vendor adhering to Ethernet standards. Specifically, it is designed to meet the stringent requirements for 10GBASE-T networks, ensuring optimal performance with compatible network infrastructure.

Installation Notes

The UTP6AL3MBU features stranded conductors for flexibility, making it easier to route in dense network racks. The LSZH jacket material reduces the emission of toxic and corrosive gases when exposed to fire, making it suitable for installation in plenum spaces or areas with strict fire safety codes. Ensure proper bend radius is maintained during installation to avoid signal degradation.
