GigaBIX PS6+ Patch Cords allow for high-density connections, coupled with flexibility for cost-effective installation and administration. Plug-and-go installation and rearrangement of patch cords do not require any special tools or training. > Robust and installer-friendly plug design with proven contact reliability to reduce network operating costs GigaBIX PS6+ Patch Cords are 4-pair 23 AWG UTP GigaBIX-compatible cords that are used in GigaBIX Cross-Connect System in Belden IBDN System 2400 and System 4800LX, providing channel bandwidths of 250 MHz and 300 MHz respectively. The GigaBIX PS6+ Patch Cord and GigaBIX Connector provide a mated performance that exceeds Category 6 requirements. Applications GigaBIX PS6+ Patch Cords are available in two different configurations and in various lengths. BIX-BIX patch cord configurations are terminated with GigaBIX-compatible plugs at each end for easy cross-connection between equipment and distribution fields. BIX-8MOD patch cord configurations are terminated with a GigaBIX-compatible plug at one end and an 8-position modular plug on the other. They are available in T568A-ISDN or T568B-ALT wiring schemes. These cords are used to easily interconnect equipment directly into the distribution field.
