Panduit CATEGORY 6A PERFORMANCE 28 AWGUTP PATCH PK25 NC/NR - UTP28X5BU-Q

Panduit UTP28X5BU-Q Category 6A Performance 28 AWG UTP Patch Cable

Overview

The Panduit UTP28X5BU-Q is a 5-foot Category 6A UTP patch cable designed for high-density network environments where space is at a premium. Its 28 AWG construction allows for smaller bend radii, facilitating easier cable management in racks and patch panels, crucial for maintaining airflow and accessibility in enterprise data centers and structured cabling systems. This cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance up to 100 meters, ensuring robust data transmission for demanding applications.

Compatibility

This cable is designed to terminate into standard RJ45 connectors and is compatible with all Category 6A network infrastructure components. It is suitable for use with network switches, routers, servers, and workstations requiring 10GbE connectivity. It is also backward compatible with Category 6 and Category 5e systems, though performance will be limited to the lower category's specifications.

Installation Notes

The 28 AWG construction offers increased flexibility, simplifying installation in tight spaces. Ensure proper strain relief is applied at termination points to maintain cable integrity and prevent signal degradation. Avoid sharp bends exceeding the cable's minimum bend radius to guarantee optimal performance for 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications.
