Panduit UTP28X3MBL Cat6A UTP Patch Cord
Overview
The Panduit UTP28X3MBL is a 3-meter Cat6A Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) patch cord designed for high-speed network connections. Its 28AWG construction offers a balance of flexibility and performance, suitable for patching within racks or connecting devices in close proximity. The CM/LSZH (Communications Multipurpose/Low Smoke Zero Halogen) rated jacket ensures compliance with building codes requiring reduced flame spread and smoke emission, making it appropriate for indoor commercial installations.
Compatibility
This patch cord is compatible with all standard RJ45 connectors and network devices supporting Cat6A performance. It is suitable for use with Panduit's extensive line of connectivity products, including patch panels, wall plates, and network switches. Its 28AWG construction is optimized for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T) up to 100 meters when used in conjunction with other Cat6A-compliant components.
Installation Notes
The 3-meter length is ideal for short runs within a network rack or between adjacent equipment. The CM/LSZH jacket requires careful handling to avoid damage, but it offers enhanced safety in plenum or riser spaces compared to standard PVC jackets. Ensure proper strain relief is applied at termination points to maintain cable integrity and performance.
