Description

Panduit STP28X5M Shielded Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit STP28X5M is a 5-meter (16.4 ft) Cat 6A shielded patch cord designed for high-density network infrastructure. Its compact 28 AWG solid conductor construction simplifies cable management in racks and patch panels, reducing strain and improving airflow. This cord is suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications up to 500 MHz and supports the latest Power over Ethernet standards, making it ideal for powering devices like IP cameras and wireless access points.

Compatibility

This patch cord utilizes standard modular plugs and is compatible with any network equipment, patch panels, and wall plates designed for Cat 6A or higher performance cabling. It meets ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6A and ISO 11801 Class EA standards. The cable construction is F/UTP (Shielded/Unshielded Twisted Pair), meaning each pair is individually shielded within the overall cable jacket, providing enhanced protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI).

Installation Notes

The STP28X5M features a tangle-free latch on its modular plugs, preventing snagging during installation and ensuring a secure, fast release when performing moves, adds, or changes. Its 0.185-inch (4.7mm) diameter makes it easier to route in tight spaces compared to larger gauge cables. The cord is rated CM/LSZH (Communications Multipurpose/Low Smoke Zero Halogen) for flammability and environmental safety.

Power Delivery

This Cat 6A patch cord is rated for IEEE 802.3bt Type 3 and Type 4 (PoE++), capable of delivering up to 100W of power. This ensures it can reliably power high-demand network devices, eliminating the need for local power supplies and simplifying deployments.
