Panduit UTP28SP49GY Cat6 Cable

Overview

The Panduit UTP28SP49GY is a 49-foot, Category 6 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable designed for high-performance copper connectivity. Its CM LSZH (CM Low Smoke Zero Halogen) rating makes it suitable for installation in plenum spaces or environments where fire safety and low smoke emission are critical. This assembly provides a reliable link for data centers, telecommunications rooms, and enterprise networking environments, supporting up to 1 Gbps data rates.

Compatibility

This Category 6 cable is backward compatible with Category 5e and forward compatible with emerging standards. It is designed to work with standard RJ45 connectors and any network equipment requiring Cat6 performance, including switches, routers, and network interface cards from major vendors. It meets TIA-568-C.2 and ISO/IEC 11801 specifications, ensuring interoperability with compliant networking infrastructure.

Installation Notes

The 28AWG construction offers flexibility and ease of routing in tight spaces. The CM LSZH jacket ensures compliance with building codes requiring low smoke and halogen-free cable jackets. Ensure proper termination practices are followed to maintain the cable's 250 MHz bandwidth and 1 Gbps data rate capabilities.
