Most cat 5e cat 6 and cat 6a multipair cables are certified through the manufacturers design process rather than by testing due to the complexity of the test head that would be needed to analyze the powersum requirements in a multipair cable. In these instances the performance risk is with the manufacturer, buyer beware. 

Why would you need a multipair copper 6a cable - to get the biggest number possible in the spec? Why not use a bundle of cat 6a cables which can be certified in the field ? Why not use fibre?

It is impossible to meet the PS ANEXT and PS AACR-F (Alien Crosstalk) requirements of ANSI/TIA/568-B.2-10 using a multi pair cable.

Breaking out the cable without increasing PS ANEXT will also be a challenge.

Too many unknowns to make it viable.
