Panduit UTP28SP6INRD 6-Inch Red Cat6 Patch Cord
Overview
The Panduit UTP28SP6INRD is a 6-inch, Category 6 UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) patch cord designed for high-density network environments. Featuring 28AWG conductors with a CM/LSZH (Communications Multipurpose/Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket, this red cord facilitates clear network cable management and supports 1 Gigabit Ethernet performance. Its short length is ideal for connecting patch panel ports to active equipment or for in-rack cable runs where space is constrained, preventing excess cable slack that can impede airflow and complicate maintenance.
Compatibility
This patch cord is compatible with all standard RJ45-equipped networking devices, including switches, routers, servers, and workstations. It is suitable for use in structured cabling systems conforming to TIA/EIA-568-C.2 standards. The 28AWG construction is optimized for shorter runs and lower power applications, ensuring reliable data transmission for 1000BASE-T networks.
Installation Notes
The CM/LSZH jacket provides a balance of flame retardancy and low smoke emission, suitable for use in plenum spaces and other environments with strict fire safety codes. Ensure proper strain relief is maintained during installation to prevent damage to the conductors or connectors. The short 6-inch length minimizes cable congestion in high-density racks.
