Description

Panduit NK6APC6YL 6ft Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit NK6APC6YL is a 6-foot Category 6A Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) patch cord designed for high-speed network deployments. Its yellow CM/LSZH jacket ensures compliance with flammability standards for indoor use, making it suitable for structured cabling systems requiring 10GBASE-T Ethernet performance and Power over Ethernet (PoE++) support. This cord is engineered to exceed TIA-568-C.2 Category 6A channel requirements, providing a reliable link for data and power transmission in enterprise and data center environments.

Compatibility

This Panduit NK6APC6YL patch cord is compatible with any network device utilizing standard RJ45 modular plugs and requiring Category 6A performance. It is designed to support 10GBASE-T Ethernet, wireless deployments, general Power over Ethernet applications (including IEEE 802.3af/at and proposed 802.3bt types 3 & 4), and video streaming applications. It meets IEC 60603-7 standards for connector interfaces.

Installation Notes

The 26 AWG stranded copper conductors provide flexibility for routing in tight spaces, essential for complex network cabinets. The CM/LSZH jacket is suitable for installations requiring reduced smoke and halogen-free properties. Ensure proper strain relief at termination points to maintain cable integrity and performance, especially in high-density racks.
