Description
The PANDUIT STP6X7MGR is a Category 6a shielded copper patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in data centers, server rooms, and enterprise network environments. It provides reliable high-speed data transmission up to the Cat 6a performance specification, supporting 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications. The gray jacket color aids in cable management and visual organization. This patch cord is typically installed by low-voltage cabling technicians, network engineers, and licensed electricians working on structured wiring systems.
This patch cord is suited for horizontal and equipment room patching in both commercial and enterprise environments. It connects network switches, patch panels, servers, and end-user devices within structured cabling systems built to TIA-568 standards. The Cat 6a rating makes it appropriate for high-density installations where 10GBase-T performance over copper is required.
Key Features
- Category 6a performance supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet over copper
- Shielded construction reduces crosstalk and electromagnetic interference in high-density cable runs
- Copper conductor construction for reliable signal integrity
- Gray jacket for straightforward color-coded cable management
- Sold as individual unit for flexible quantity ordering
Compatibility
Designed as an OEM-style patch cord for use in Cat 6a structured cabling systems terminating at compatible shielded RJ45 keystone jacks, patch panels, and network equipment ports.
Installation Notes
Installation is typically performed by low-voltage cabling technicians or licensed electricians in accordance with TIA-568 and applicable local codes. Ensure all shielded patch panel ports and equipment ports are properly bonded to ground before connecting shielded patch cords to avoid ground loop issues. Avoid sharp bends beyond the minimum bend radius of the cable to maintain signal performance. Do not overtighten cable ties or velcro straps around shielded cables, as compression can degrade shielding effectiveness.
