Panduit UTP28SP30 30FT CAT6 CBL UTP 28AWG CM Lszh OFF WHT

Overview

The Panduit UTP28SP30 is a 30-foot Category 6 Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) patch cord designed for high-speed data transmission and reliable power delivery. Constructed with 28 AWG stranded copper conductors and a CM/LSZH (CM/Low Smoke Zero Halogen) rated jacket, this cable is suitable for use in plenum spaces or where fire safety is a concern. Its compact 0.150-inch diameter simplifies cable management in dense network racks. The integrated tangle-free latch ensures secure connections and easy removal, streamlining network maintenance and upgrades. This cable supports IEEE 802.3bt PoE++ applications, ensuring sufficient power delivery for demanding network devices.

Compatibility

This Panduit UTP28SP30 patch cord is engineered to exceed all ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6 and ISO 11801 Class E standards up to 250 MHz. It is compatible with all standard Ethernet applications including 10BASE-T, 100BASE-T (Fast Ethernet), 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet), and 10GBASE-T over limited distances. It also supports ATM, digital video, and VoIP applications. The modular plugs are wired to be compatible with both T568A and T568B schemes, ensuring broad compatibility with network switches, routers, patch panels, and end devices from various manufacturers.

Installation Notes

The 28 AWG construction of the Panduit UTP28SP30 offers enhanced flexibility and a smaller bend radius compared to standard 24 AWG cables, facilitating easier routing in crowded conduits and racks. The integral tangle-free latch on the modular plug prevents snagging during installation and removal, reducing the risk of cable damage and simplifying moves, adds, and changes. The CM/LSZH jacket rating allows for installation in environments requiring compliance with specific fire safety codes.
