Panduit STP28X3MRD Cat6A 28AWG Shielded Patch Cord
Overview
The Panduit STP28X3MRD is a 3-foot, Category 6A shielded patch cord designed to maintain signal integrity and prevent electromagnetic interference (EMI) in high-speed data network deployments. Its 28AWG construction offers a smaller diameter for easier cable management in dense rack environments. This cable is critical for ensuring reliable data transmission in environments prone to electrical noise, such as industrial facilities or areas with heavy equipment.
Compatibility
This STP28X3MRD patch cord is compatible with any network device requiring a standard RJ45 connector and supporting Category 6A performance. It is suitable for connecting servers, switches, workstations, and surveillance equipment that demand high bandwidth and low latency, such as 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) networks. It is designed to work with standard patch panels and wall jacks that also meet Category 6A specifications.
Installation Notes
The STP28X3MRD features a stranded 28AWG copper conductor for flexibility, making it easier to route in tight spaces. The shielding is terminated to the connector body to provide a complete ground path, which is essential for EMI/RFI mitigation. Ensure that both ends of the cable are properly seated in their respective ports to guarantee optimal performance and connection stability.
