Description

Panduit UTP28SP30RD Cat 6 28AWG 30ft Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit UTP28SP30RD is a 30-foot Cat 6 UTP patch cord, finished in red, designed for high-density network deployments. Its 28 AWG stranded copper construction and compact 0.150-inch diameter simplify cable management in racks and enclosures, while exceeding Cat 6 performance standards up to 250 MHz. This cord supports IEEE 802.3bt PoE++ applications, delivering up to 90W of power, making it suitable for powering network devices like IP cameras or wireless access points directly over the Ethernet cable.

Compatibility

This patch cord is wired to be compatible with both T568A and T568B wiring schemes, ensuring broad interoperability with standard network infrastructure. It supports Ethernet speeds up to 10GBASE-T over limited distances, as well as ATM and VoIP applications. Its Cat 6 UTP construction is suitable for use with standard RJ45 connectors found on network switches, routers, and end devices.

Installation Notes

Featuring a patented tangle-free latch, this cord prevents snagging during installation and removal, streamlining moves, adds, and changes. The integral pair manager maintains pair geometry, and the pre-installed RapidID barcode on the plug facilitates simple port mapping when used with compatible RapidID software. The CM/LSZH rating indicates suitability for use in riser pathways or environments requiring low smoke and halogen-free cable jacketing.
