TX6 ™ 10GIG ™ Shielded Cable – U/FTP
®
SPECIFICATION SHEET
specifications
Augmented Category 6 Shielded Copper Cable
shall be constructed of 4-pair twisted insulated
23 AWG conductors. Each individual pair shall
have a metallic foil shield and all four pairs shall
be covered with a flame retardant PVC jacket.
The shielded cable shall provide superior alien
cross-talk performance. The TX6 ™ 10GIG™ Shielded
Cable must be installed as part of the TX6 ™ 10GIG™
Shielded Copper Cabling System to achieve
certified 10GBASE-T performance.

Usage of the TX6 ™ 10GIG™ Shielded Copper
Cabling System includes high bandwidth
applications within data centers and
connections to high-end workstations such as:
• Stacking switches and switch-to-switch links
• Storage area networks
• Aggregation of Gigabit Ethernet channels
• Real-time intensive financial transactions
• Streaming video
• Animation
• Scientific modeling
• Medical imaging
**For lengths 1 – 10 meters (increments of 1
meter) and 10 – 40 meters (increments of 5
meters) change the length designation in the
part number to the desired length. For standard
cable colors other than IG (International Gray),
substitute suffix with BL (Black), BU (Blue),
GR (Green), RD (Red), YL (yellow),
OR (Orange) or VL (Violet). For example, the
part number for a blue 15 meter cord is
STP6X15MBU.
