The AX0 Cat 6 UTP connector is compatible with 1000BASE-T networks and is ideal for applications requiring optimal network performance with additional features. The connector is designed for use with a variety of Leviton modular panels, wall plates, surface mount boxes, and QUICKPORT™ compatible products.
The AX61U-GE6 is a connector specifically designed for efficiency. When you mention the "metal separator" in these Leviton models (or similar high-end ones like the AX series), you're referring to a component that makes a difference in network certifications.
The Secret of the Metal Separator (Internal Shield/Separator) Unlike inexpensive connectors that are all plastic, this internal metal separator performs critical functions:
1. Elimination of ANEXT (Alien Crosstalk) In dense installations (like a patch panel in a data center), connectors are close together. The metal separator acts as an individual Faraday cage. It prevents signals from one connector from "contaminating" its neighbor, which is vital if you want to maintain stable speeds without packet loss.
2. Pair Management (AX Termination) This separator not only blocks interference but also helps organize the four wire pairs.
It maintains the twisting: It allows the twisting of each pair to reach almost to the point of physical contact.
Zero errors: By physically separating the orange and blue wires, for example, internal noise is drastically reduced.
3. Heat Dissipation (PoE++ / 4PPoE) Today, network cables carry not only data but also a significant amount of power to run cameras, access points, and lights.
Metal dissipates heat much better than plastic.
If you use high-power PoE, these connectors with metal components prevent the material from degrading or becoming corroded over time due to the temperature of the copper wires.
