Panduit UTP6AX7MBL Cat 6A Utp Patch Cable 10 Gb/s

Product Description

The PANDUIT UTP6AX7MBL is a Category 6A unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cable rated for 10 Gb/s data transmission. Designed for structured cabling installations, this cable supports the bandwidth demands of modern network infrastructure, including high-density data centers, enterprise wiring closets, and commercial building networks. It meets Category 6A performance standards, which require support for frequencies up to 500 MHz and full 10 Gigabit Ethernet operation over standard horizontal cable runs. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors are the primary installers of this cable in both new construction and retrofit environments.

This patch cable is suited for connecting network switches, patch panels, servers, and end devices in structured cabling systems. Category 6A cabling is commonly specified in commercial and enterprise environments where 10 Gb/s performance is required at channel lengths up to 100 meters. It is also appropriate for use in industrial and institutional settings where higher-bandwidth applications are anticipated over the life of the installation.

Key Features

• Category 6A rated for 10 Gb/s Ethernet performance
• Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) construction for standard structured cabling environments
• Supports frequencies up to 500 MHz per TIA-568 Category 6A specification
• Sold individually as a single unit
• Suitable for patch panel to switch connections and device drops

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cable for use with Category 6A-rated patch panels, keystone jacks, and network switches in TIA-568-compliant structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage cabling contractors or network technicians. Patch cables should be routed and dressed to maintain bend radius requirements and avoid sharp edges that can damage the jacket or affect pair geometry. Do not crimp, kink, or over-tension the cable during routing. Cable management practices should comply with applicable structured cabling standards such as ANSI/TIA-568.
