Description

Panduit STP28X3MBU 3M BLU CAT6A 28AWG SHLDPC

Overview

The Panduit STP28X3MBU is a 3-meter shielded Category 6A patch cable designed for high-density data center and enterprise network deployments. Its 28AWG stranded copper conductors and robust shielding minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, ensuring signal integrity for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T) applications up to 100 meters. The blue jacket aids in visual identification within structured cabling systems.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with all standard RJ45-terminated networking equipment, including switches, routers, servers, and workstations. It is suitable for use in environments requiring Category 6A performance, such as high-speed data centers, enterprise LANs, and industrial networks where signal integrity is critical. It is designed to meet or exceed TIA-568-C.2 and ISO 11801 standards for Class EA channels.

Installation Notes

Utilize this cable in structured cabling systems where reliable 10Gbps performance is required. Ensure proper termination and strain relief to maintain cable performance and longevity. The shielded construction necessitates proper grounding of network equipment and patch panels to effectively dissipate EMI.
