Why choose it

The 10GX series from Belden is engineered for high-performance 10GBASE-T networks. The LSZH jacket reduces toxic smoke and corrosive gases in the event of fire, enhancing safety in confined spaces. Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion and ensure low insertion loss over repeated mating cycles. The stranded copper conductors provide flexibility for easy routing in patch panels and equipment racks.

Ideal use cases

• Data centre server-to-switch connections
• High-speed workstation links
• PoE applications up to 100W (IEEE 802.3bt)
• Horizontal cabling in offices with strict fire safety codes

Good to know

This patch cord is part of Belden's 10GX system, which guarantees end-to-end channel performance when used with compatible 10GX jacks and panels. The cable is packaged individually and is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 equipment. For best results, avoid sharp bends and maintain the minimum bend radius of 4 times the cable diameter.
