Panduit UTPSP2BUY CAT6 COP Patch Cord UTP Blue

Overview

The Panduit UTPSP2BUY is a 2-foot, blue CAT6 Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) patch cord designed for reliable data transmission and power delivery. Constructed with 24 AWG stranded copper, this cord meets rigorous performance standards, making it suitable for high-density environments where cable management is critical. Its tangle-free latch and slender strain relief boot streamline installation and maintenance, reducing deployment time and potential connection issues in network closets and data racks. This cord is rated for CM flammability, ensuring compliance with building codes for riser applications. The UTPSP2BUY supports IEEE 802.3bt PoE++ applications, capable of delivering up to 100W of power, essential for powering high-demand network devices like advanced wireless access points or PTZ cameras.

Compatibility

This Panduit CAT6 UTP patch cord is engineered to exceed ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6 and ISO 11801 Class E standards up to 250 MHz. It is compatible with all standard Ethernet applications including 10BASE-T, 100BASE-T, 1000BASE-T, and 10GBASE-T over limited distances. It also supports ATM, Token Ring, and various video signal types. Critically, it is specifically designed and tested to support IEEE 802.3af (PoE), 802.3at (PoE+), and 802.3bt (PoE++) Type 3 and Type 4 power sourcing equipment (PSE) and powered devices (PD).

Installation Notes

The cable construction is U/UTP (unshielded, unshielded twisted pair) with 24 AWG stranded conductors, providing flexibility for routing. The integral pair manager simplifies termination and strain relief. The high-performance modular plugs feature a tangle-free latch that requires a simple squeeze for release, preventing snags during installation or moves, adds, and changes (MACs). The slender strain relief boot is designed for easy access in high-density patch panel installations.
