Panduit UTPSP12Y Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit UTPSP12Y is a 12-foot, off-white Cat 6 UTP patch cord designed for reliable network connectivity in commercial and data center environments. Constructed with 24 AWG stranded copper and featuring a tangle-free latch, this cord streamlines installation and maintenance, particularly in high-density racks where easy port access is critical. Its CM flammability rating ensures compliance with building codes for in-wall or riser applications.

Compatibility

This Panduit Pan-Net® patch cord is engineered to exceed ANSI/TIA-568.2-D and ISO 11801 Class E standards, ensuring compatibility with Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T) and 10GBASE-T over specified distances. It supports IEEE 802.3af, 802.3at, and 802.3bt Type 3 and Type 4 Power over Ethernet (PoE++) standards, making it suitable for powering network devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones without requiring separate power supplies. The cable is rated for 2500 mating cycles, providing long-term connectivity.

Installation Notes

The slender strain relief boot on the UTPSP12Y facilitates easy insertion into high-density patch panels and network switches. The tangle-free latch design simplifies disconnection and prevents snagging during moves, adds, or changes. Pre-installed RapidID barcodes on the cable enable quick and accurate port mapping with compatible software, reducing troubleshooting time.
