Panduit STP28X0.2MGR 0.2M CAT6A Shielded Patch Cable

Overview

The Panduit STP28X0.2MGR is a 0.2-meter (approximately 0.66 ft) shielded Category 6A patch cable designed for high-performance network infrastructure. Its construction ensures signal integrity and reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI), making it suitable for environments where data accuracy and network stability are critical, such as in industrial settings or near high-power equipment. This short-form cable is ideal for direct connections between network devices in close proximity, minimizing cable clutter and potential signal degradation over longer runs.

Compatibility

This cable is designed to terminate into standard RJ45 connectors and is compatible with all network devices supporting Category 6A performance standards, including 10GBASE-T Ethernet. It is suitable for use with network switches, servers, workstations, and surveillance equipment from brands like Axis Communications, Hanwha Vision, Hikvision, and others that require reliable CAT6A connectivity.

Installation Notes

The STP28X0.2MGR features a shielded construction, requiring proper grounding at both ends to achieve its full EMI/RFI rejection capabilities. Ensure that the connected network equipment and patch panels are also properly grounded. The 28AWG construction provides flexibility for tight installations, but avoid sharp bends exceeding a 4x cable diameter radius to maintain performance.
