The Molex PowerCat 6A UTP patch cords are key components of the PowerCat 6A UTP end-to-end solution.
Molex PowerCat 6A Patch Cords are designed to support high speed 10GBASE-T networks and are backward compatible with 10/100/1000BASE-T networks. The patch cable is made from high quality four pair 26 AWG stranded copper wire. Available in a range of colors and lengths, PowerCat 6A patch cords are pre-terminated with RJ45 plugs and feature anti-snag slim strain relief slip on boots.

PoE
Our PowerCat 6A system is suitable for the most demanding PoE applications:
– IEEE 802.3bt from Type 1 to Type 4, and CISCO UPoE+
– HD Base-T PoH up to 100W
– RP3 compliant as defined by EN 50174-2:2018, ISO/IEC 14763-2:2019 and AS/NZS 14763.2:2020
Notes:
– For new installations of PoE Type 3 / Class 5 and above that wish to be eligible for the Molex 25 year Application Assurance Warranty, we require Category 6A cable to be used throughout.
– To confirm your PoE / RP3 cabling design is eligible for the Molex 25 year Application Assurance Warranty, your design must be verified and validated with the Molex PoE Calculator. Read more at https://www.molexces.com/poe-calculator
– Molex recommends that the PoE feature on an individual switch port is power disabled prior to unplugging the associated powered Device.
– Molex recommends that the full range of PowerCat 6A products be used in a system to maximize cabling and PoE performance.
