Panduit STP28X0.5MGR 0.5M CAT6A Shielded Patch Cable
Overview
The Panduit STP28X0.5MGR is a 0.5-meter, shielded Category 6A patch cable designed for high-density network environments. Its 28AWG conductors and Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket make it suitable for installations where fire safety and minimal smoke emission are critical, such as data centers and enterprise network closets. This cable ensures reliable data transmission for 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications up to 100 meters, while the shielding protects against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and alien crosstalk (AXT) in electrically noisy environments.
Compatibility
This STP28X0.5MGR cable is compatible with all standard RJ45 network interfaces and supports 10GBASE-T Ethernet speeds. It is designed to work with any network equipment requiring Category 6A performance, including switches, routers, servers, and workstations. Its 28AWG construction is optimized for high-density patch panel and switch configurations, reducing cable bulk and improving airflow in crowded racks.
Installation Notes
The cable features a shielded construction with a 28AWG conductor gauge, requiring careful handling during termination to maintain signal integrity. Ensure proper grounding of the shield to the equipment or patch panel to effectively dissipate EMI. The LSZH jacket requires consideration for plenum-rated cable runs where applicable, as LSZH is typically not plenum-rated.
