Global
Large customers prefer to specify a global supplier to ensure consistency of service, performance and
quality across their multiple locations. For example, global customers can order “Advanced MaTriX”
cable in all regions in the applicable flame rating for that region (like Plenum or Low Smoke).
Market/Brand Perception
Brand perception is built over many years. Panduit’s reputation for performance, superior customer
service and quality are well-known. This well-deserved reputation should provide Panduit an
advantage over lesser competitors.
Cable Attributes
Cable Diameter
Smaller cable diameters allow for smaller pathways, cable managers or more utilization of existing
pathways. They also allow for better air flow. Installation is made easier because smaller diameter
cables are more flexible. Panduit is able to make our cables with a reduced diameter due to MaTriX
technology.
Jack Attributes
65°C Rating
Jacks experience a 5°C temperature rise when subjected to the power that PoE++ will
allow. Therefore, PoE++ applications in a 60°C environment will need a 65°C rated jack. Some
competitors are assumed to be 60°C based on it being the market norm.
