Panduit UTP28SP25GR Cat 6 28 AWG Patch Cord Green

Overview

The Panduit UTP28SP25GR is a 25-foot Category 6 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cord designed for high-performance network connections. Its 28 AWG stranded copper construction and compact 0.150-inch diameter simplify cable management in dense installations, while the green jacket aids in visual identification. This cord supports up to 10 Gbps Ethernet and is specifically engineered for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications, including IEEE 802.3bt Type 3 and Type 4, delivering up to 100W of power. The integrated tangle-free latch ensures secure connections and easy disconnection, streamlining moves, adds, and changes in commercial or data center environments.

Compatibility

This Cat 6 patch cord is compatible with all T568A and T568B wiring schemes, making it suitable for a wide range of network devices including switches, routers, servers, and workstations. It meets ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6 and ISO 11801 Class E standards, ensuring reliable performance for Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T) and 10GBASE-T up to 55 meters. It fully supports IEEE 802.3af (PoE), 802.3at (PoE+), and 802.3bt (PoE++) power delivery standards, making it ideal for powering devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones.

Installation Notes

The UTP28SP25GR features pre-installed RapidID barcodes on the connectors, enabling quick and accurate port mapping with compatible RapidID software, which significantly reduces troubleshooting time. The stranded 28 AWG conductors offer flexibility for routing in tight spaces. The CM/LSZH (Communications Multipurpose/Low Smoke Zero Halogen) rating provides enhanced safety in plenum or other spaces where fire safety regulations are stringent.
