Panduit UTP28X15RD Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit UTP28X15RD is a 15-foot Cat 6A UTP patch cord designed for high-speed Ethernet applications up to 10GBASE-T. Its 28 AWG solid conductor construction and compact 0.185-inch diameter simplify cable management in data centers and enterprise networks. The integral pair manager and tangle-free latch ensure reliable connections and ease of moves, adds, and changes, while pre-installed RapidID barcodes facilitate network mapping.

Compatibility

This patch cord is built to exceed ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6A and ISO 11801 Class EA standards, ensuring interoperability with network infrastructure supporting 10GBASE-T Ethernet. It is compatible with T568A and T568B wiring schemes. Furthermore, it supports IEEE 802.3af, 802.3at, and 802.3bt (type 3 and type 4) Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications, making it suitable for powering network devices like IP cameras and wireless access points without requiring separate power supplies.

Installation Notes

Constructed with CM/LSZH cable, this patch cord meets flammability requirements for commercial and low-smoke zero-halogen installations. The patented tangle-free latch design prevents snagging during installation and disconnection, streamlining network maintenance and upgrades. The 28 AWG solid conductor gauge offers a smaller bend radius, facilitating easier routing in high-density environments.
