PARADIGM™

Global Extended Distance System

PARADIGM Extended Distance Copper System

Delivers 1 Gbps performance up to 200 meters with 100W PoE in real world conditions

The PARADIGM Extended Distance System is a next-generation Cat 6 UTP cabling solution engineered for extended reach, real-world reliability, and simplified deployments. It delivers consistent performance for data rates up to 2.5G and all PoE types, even in environments up to 60 °C.

Recommended for:

  • Important networks supporting security, wireless, access control, and IoT devices
  • Optimal return on infrastructure investment for healthcare, government, transportation, education, warehouse, data center, stadiums, parks, and parking structures by providing network links without adding IDFs or more active equipment
  • Data rates up to 2.5G and PoE up to 100W
  • Any IP-based system utilizing UTP cabling that needs to support security cameras at distances up to 275 meters; and 1 Gbps wireless access points up to 200 meters
  • Designed for outdoor, campus, and other environmentally challenging installations, including parking garages

Stadion Cat 6 cable is the foundation of PARADIGM’s extended distance capability. Designed for long runs, elevated temperatures, and high power PoE, Stadion enables extended plug‑to‑plug Ethernet performance beyond conventional limitations.

Within the PARADIGM™ Extended Distance System, Stadion cable is applied in engineered and validated channel configurations using ATLAS‑X1™ connectivity. This system level approach defines supported distances for 1G and 2.5G applications with all levels of PoE and provides assurance through Leviton testing and warranty coverage.
