Panduit ISTPH6X4MBL Industrial Copper Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit ISTPH6X4MBL is a 4-meter (13.1 ft) shielded Cat6A industrial copper patch cord designed for robust network connections in demanding environments. It features RJ45 modular plugs on both ends, ensuring compatibility with standard Ethernet ports. This cord is specifically engineered for industrial applications, including Ethernet/IP, control panel uplinks, and high-flex robotic systems, providing reliable data transmission up to 600V and supporting PoE+ power delivery.

Compatibility

This patch cord is built to exceed channel and component requirements for ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 Category 6A and ISO 11801 Class Ea standards. It meets all applicable ANSI/TIA-968-A requirements and is UL-rated (UL 1863). It is also compliant with IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at for PoE+ applications, making it suitable for powering network devices directly through the Ethernet cable. The SF/UTP construction provides superior shielding against electromagnetic interference (EMI) common in industrial settings.

Installation Notes

The cable construction is SF/UTP (Screened Foiled/Unshielded Twisted Pair), offering robust protection against EMI. It utilizes stranded 26 AWG copper conductors for flexibility, suitable for high-flex applications. The cord meets UL AWM Style 2463 specifications for 600V and 80°C operation. Its CM flammability rating indicates suitability for use in building riser pathways.
