Network patch cord Belden 10GX Cat6a U/UTP LSZH, 2 m, RJ-45–RJ-45, grey

Belden 10GX Cat6a U/UTP LSZH patch cord, 2 m, with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, is designed for horizontal and building cabling to support current and future Category 6a and 6 applications. It supports data rates such as 10GBase-T (10 Gigabit Ethernet), 1000Base-T (Gigabit Ethernet), 100 Base-T and 10 Base-T, and is suitable for PoE applications including IEEE 802.3bt type 3 and type 4 for patch cord runs up to 10 m. The cable features an unshielded U/UTP construction and a low‑smoke zero‑halogen (LSZH) jacket suitable for installations where reduced smoke and halogen emissions are required.

Advantages

The Belden 10GX patch cord provides support for high data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is compatible with typical Ethernet standards used in data centres and office LANs. Its RJ-45 to RJ-45 terminations with plated contacts ensure reliable electrical contact, while the LSZH jacket reduces corrosive gas and smoke in the event of fire. The 2 m length offers flexibility for short interconnections and patch panel to switch connections in cabling installations.

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug of the patch cord to the network device or outlet and the other plug to the switch, patch panel or network interface. Route the cable following standard installation practices for horizontal and building cabling, avoiding sharp bends and mechanical stress. For PoE applications verify device and switch power classes and keep patch cord length within recommended limits for high‑power PoE types.

Recommendations

Use this 2 m Cat6a U/UTP LSZH patch cord for short interconnects in data centres and office environments where a low‑smoke jacket is required; maintain proper bend radius and avoid excessive tension during installation to preserve performance.
