Cabling system delivers 10Gb/s performance

TX6A 10Gb copper cabling system
Panduit has introduced the TX6A 10Gb copper cabling system.
This end-to-end Category 6A UTP system is claimed to provide significant margin on all 10GBASE-T electrical parameters with improved alien crosstalk performance, delivering better overall channel performance over a slimmer UTP cable.
The TX6A 10Gb system design utilises matrix tape technology in the cable and advanced connector compensation techniques to achieve channel bandwidth performance above standard requirements.
This design reduces the weight and diameter of Category 6A UTP cables, improving pathway capacity up to 30 per cent for improved airflow through dense data centre enclosures without compromising alien crosstalk performance.
The complete system yields high overall channel performance in the highest density physical infrastructure environments (48 ports in a 1RU space), achieving 10Gb/s performance while eliminating the time and cost of alien crosstalk testing, said the company.
'Current adopters of Category 6A technologies have had to work with cabling vendors and integrators to overcome installation and management challenges associated with thicker cable designs,' said Jack Tison, vice-president research and development, Panduit.
'The Panduit TX6A system overcomes these challenges, reducing operational risk in the data centre and empowering organisations to achieve strategic goals,' he added.
The TX6A 10Gb copper cabling system supports all configurations from a 100m four-connector channel to a 3m two-connector permanent link, enabling a wide range of data centre architectures and applications.
The system also allows for co-mingling with Category 5e and 6 cables while providing a clear migration path from 1000BASE-T to 10GBASE-T applications, and supports advanced PoE applications at extended operating temperatures.
