Siemon Z-MAX Category 6A Outlet Module (Cat 6A Z-MAX Jack)
Siemon Z-MAX Category 6A Outlet Module is a high-performance connector solution designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T) applications and beyond. It is part of Siemon’s advanced Z-MAX cabling system, which ensures exceptional performance, reliability, and easy installation for structured cabling networks.
Engineered to support Category 6A performance requirements, the Z-MAX module delivers guaranteed compliance with TIA and ISO/IEC standards, making it ideal for data centers, enterprise networks, and high-bandwidth environments where speed and signal integrity are critical.
Siemon offers the Z-MAX outlet module in two main types:
- Shielded (F/UTP or S/FTP) → Provides protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk. Perfect for high-noise industrial or data center environments.
- Unshielded (UTP) → Suitable for typical office and enterprise cabling where shielding is not essential.
Key Features
- Category 6A Compliance → Fully compliant with TIA-568 and ISO/IEC 11801 standards, ensuring reliable 10Gbps data transmission.
- Compact Design → Slim-profile design allows easy installation in high-density environments.
- Quick & Reliable Termination → Siemon’s Z-MAX modules feature an intuitive termination process that reduces installation time and ensures consistent, high-quality connections.
- Shielded & Unshielded Options → Available in shielded (for high EMI environments) and unshielded (for standard LAN installations).
- Future-Ready → Built to support next-generation applications such as cloud computing, high-definition video, and virtualized environments.
- Backward Compatibility → Works seamlessly with existing Cat 6 and Cat 5e cabling infrastructure.
