specifications
The TX6A™ Category 6A UTP Field Term RJ45 Plug is a simple-to-attach plug
for field termination of 4-pair unshielded twisted pair cable. Providing Category
6A performance the TX6A™ plug is also compatible with Category 6 and 5e
systems. The two-piece straight and up/down angled TX6A™ plug terminates
4-pair, 22 - 26 AWG, 100 ohm unshielded twisted pair cable and uses proven
TG-style forward motion termination technology to optimize performance by
maintaining cable pair geometry while eliminating conductor untwist.

applications
The simple-to-attach TX6A
™
Field-Term Plug is ideal for connecting the increasing number of
network-powered devices requiring a plug connection to the network and where field attachment of
the plug to UTP cable is desired. Typical applications include:
• Wireless access points (WAPs)
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) LED lighting
• IP security cameras and motion sensors
• Building access control points
• Network-attached Audio/Video equipment
• Other PoE or HDBASE-T powered network
devices

key features and benefits
Simple two-piece
assembly
Field friendly, easier to handle during field installation, saving time and
reducing termination error
45° up/down angled
version
Angled version allows improved cable routing in tight spaces
Slim plug profile
Easily fits in tight port spaces or high-density port configurations
22-26 AWG termination
capable
Works with all commonly used solid and stranded UTP cabling
TG-style termination
technology
Proven electrical performance and quick installation speed from the
same forward-motion termination technology used in Panduit’s Mini-
Com TG modular jacks
Category 6A, 6, and 5e
compatibility
High performance capability and wide cable size range enable a
single plug for all common UTP cabling systems
Re-termination
Ability to re-terminate up to 20 times with no additional parts,
providing convenience and cost-savings in cases when plug must be
re-terminated to cable
Compact termination
tools
EGPT is a fold-able, lightweight tool which terminates the straight and
angled field term plugs. EGJT-1 is a fold-able, lightweight tool which
terminates the straight field term plug
