Panduit UTP28SP8INPK Concise Descriptor

Overview

The Panduit UTP28SP8INPK is an 8-inch Category 6 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cable designed for short, high-density network connections. Featuring a CM/LSZH (Communications Multipurpose/Low Smoke Zero Halogen) rated jacket, this cable is suitable for use in plenum spaces or where fire safety regulations require reduced smoke and halogen emissions. Its compact length minimizes cable clutter in patch panel deployments and equipment racks, ensuring better airflow and easier management. This cable is engineered to support 1 Gigabit Ethernet speeds and is a reliable component for structured cabling systems in commercial environments.

Compatibility

This Panduit UTP28SP8INPK cable is compatible with all standard Category 6 and Category 5e networking equipment, including switches, routers, patch panels, and network interface cards. It is designed for use with standard RJ45 connectors and ports found in most enterprise and data center environments. Specifically, it integrates seamlessly with Panduit's own Net-Access™ and QuickNet™ structured cabling solutions, as well as third-party network hardware supporting 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet standards.

Installation Notes

The 8-inch length is ideal for direct connections between patch panel ports or for short runs from a patch panel to a network switch. The CM/LSZH jacket requires adherence to local building codes regarding plenum cable installation. Ensure connectors are fully seated to achieve optimal performance and reliable data transmission. Avoid sharp bends or excessive tension on the cable to maintain signal integrity and prevent damage.
