Panduit UTP28X12GY Concise Descriptor

Overview

The Panduit UTP28X12GY is a 12-foot Category 6A (Cat6a) unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cord designed for high-speed data transmission in commercial and surveillance environments. Featuring 28AWG conductors and a CM/LSZH (Plenum/Low Smoke Zero Halogen) rated jacket, this gray cord provides a reliable connection for network devices, ensuring data integrity for video streams and network traffic. Its construction minimizes electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, critical for maintaining performance in demanding network infrastructures.

Compatibility

This Cat6a patch cord is compatible with all standard networking equipment supporting Cat6a specifications, including 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) applications. It is suitable for connecting network switches, routers, servers, workstations, and IP cameras from various manufacturers, including but not limited to brands like Axis Communications, Hanwha Vision, Hikvision, and Dahua Technology, provided they utilize standard RJ45 connectors and support 10GbE speeds. It is also backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e networks, though performance will be limited to the lower standard.

Installation Notes

The 28AWG conductor gauge offers a smaller bend radius, facilitating easier installation in high-density racks and cable management systems. The CM/LSZH jacket is suitable for use in air handling spaces and environments where low smoke and halogen-free materials are required for safety compliance. Ensure connectors are fully seated to achieve optimal performance and prevent signal degradation.
