Panduit UTP6AX2.5MRD Cat 6A Utp Patch Cable 10gb/s

Product Description

The PANDUIT UTP6AX2.5MRD is a Category 6A unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cable rated for 10 Gb/s data transmission. Built to meet TIA-568-C.2 Category 6A performance standards, this cable is designed for structured cabling installations where high-speed Ethernet connectivity is required. It is sold as a single unit and is suited for use in data centers, telecommunications rooms, and commercial network infrastructure. Electricians and low-voltage network cabling technicians are the primary installers for this type of patch cable.

This patch cable is intended for use in horizontal and equipment-room cabling environments where 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance is required. It connects network switches, patch panels, servers, and other active equipment in commercial and enterprise settings. The Category 6A rating supports bandwidth up to 500 MHz, making it appropriate for demanding network applications that require reliable high-speed throughput over copper cabling.

Key Features

• Category 6A rating supports 10 Gb/s Ethernet transmission
• UTP construction with no shielding required for standard installations
• 500 MHz bandwidth capacity for high-frequency signal performance
• Sold as a single cable unit for flexible quantity ordering
• Designed for structured cabling in commercial and enterprise network environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard patch cable for Category 6A-compliant structured cabling systems using RJ45 terminations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or electrician familiar with TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Avoid sharp bends, kinks, or exceeding the minimum bend radius during routing, as this can degrade signal performance. De-energize connected active equipment before patching into live switch ports where safe to do so. Installations in commercial buildings may be subject to local codes and NEC Article 800 requirements for communications wiring.
