Panduit STP28X3MVL Cat 6A Shielded Patch Cord
Overview
The Panduit STP28X3MVL is a 3-meter Category 6A shielded patch cord designed for high-speed data transmission in demanding network environments. Its 28 AWG construction and CM/LSZH jacket rating make it suitable for installations requiring plenum-rated cable or where low smoke and zero halogen properties are critical, such as in security surveillance systems or enterprise data centers. The violet color aids in visual identification within structured cabling systems.
Compatibility
This patch cord is engineered to meet the stringent performance requirements of Cat 6A standards, ensuring compatibility with 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T) networks. It is designed to interface with standard RJ45 connectors and ports found on network switches, routers, servers, and IP cameras. For optimal performance, pair with other Cat 6A components, including shielded patch panels and bulk cable from the Panduit connectivity product line.
Installation Notes
The STP28X3MVL features a flexible 28 AWG stranded copper core, allowing for easier routing in tight spaces compared to solid conductor cables. The CM/LSZH jacket provides a balance of flame retardancy and low smoke emission, suitable for use in commercial buildings. Ensure proper termination practices are followed to maintain the integrity of the shielding and achieve maximum data throughput.
