Panduit UTP6AX2.5MBU Cat6a Utp Patch Cable 10gb/s

Product Description

The PANDUIT UTP6AX2.5MBU is a Category 6A unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cable rated for 10 Gb/s data transmission. It is designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and industrial environments where high-speed network connectivity is required. This cable supports the bandwidth demands of modern Ethernet applications and is terminated for direct plug-and-play connection between network equipment, patch panels, and switches. Installation is handled by low-voltage technicians and licensed data cabling professionals following applicable TIA-568 and BICSI standards.

This patch cable is suited for horizontal and equipment-room applications in commercial buildings, data centers, and server rooms. It provides a reliable, standards-compliant connection for runs requiring 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance. The 2.5-meter length indicated in the MPN makes it well suited for short equipment-bay runs and patch panel to switch connections. Electricians and low-voltage specialists working on structured cabling projects are the primary installers of this type of cable.

Key Features

• Category 6A rating supports 10 Gb/s Ethernet over full copper UTP construction
• UTP design eliminates the need for shielded termination hardware, simplifying installation
• Plug-and-play terminated ends allow direct connection without field termination
• Suitable for structured cabling environments following TIA-568-C.2 Category 6A specifications
• Blue jacket color aids in visual cable management and identification in dense patch environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation patch cable for Category 6A structured cabling systems using standard RJ45 jack interfaces.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage technician or licensed electrician following local codes and TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Avoid sharp bends exceeding the cable minimum bend radius, as this can degrade signal performance. Ensure patch panel and switch ports are powered down or that live-port handling follows site safety protocols before routing cables in active equipment racks. Do not exceed the rated length for the intended 10 Gb/s application.
