Panduit FC-ICCP1MWH Cat 6A UTP Indoor Splice Connecting Cord
Overview
The Panduit FC-ICCP1MWH is a 39.4-inch (1-meter) indoor Category 6A UTP connecting cord from the Pan-Net® structured cabling line — built for field splice applications where you need a verified, standards-conformant link segment rather than a field-terminated punchdown. At 39.4 inches, it drops neatly into consolidation-point enclosures, horizontal connection zones, and equipment-room patch fields where a short, rigid cross-connect run is required. Sold as a single unit (carton of 10), the FC-ICCP1MWH ships factory-terminated and ready to deploy — no field termination, no crimping tools, no guesswork on insertion loss.
This cord sits squarely in the Panduit Pan-Net® copper cabling ecosystem and is engineered to exceed ANSI/TIA Category 6A and ISO Class EA channel performance when paired with Panduit Cat 6A UTP copper cable. If your cabling plant is already Panduit-spec'd, this connector closes the link without introducing a performance bottleneck at the splice point.
Key Features
- Exceeds ANSI/TIA Category 6A and ISO Class EA: Performance headroom above the minimum spec means your channel stays compliant even with modest installation imperfections — important in consolidation-point layouts where the splice adds an extra mated connection to the channel budget. Browse the broader structured cabling connector selection for complementary keystone jacks and patch panels in the same performance tier.
- PoE, PoE+, and PoE++ (up to 100 W) support: The cord is rated for Type 3 and Type 4 PoE++ applications up to 100 W, which means it won't be the limiting factor on high-draw endpoints like pan-tilt-zoom cameras, wireless access points, or 90 W IEEE 802.3bt Class 8 devices. Many Cat 6A cords are spec'd only to PoE+; this one handles the full 802.3bt load — relevant if your PoE switch budget is being pushed by high-wattage devices.
- ANSI/TIA-1096-A (formerly FCC Part 68) and IEC-60603-7 compliance: Dual regulatory conformance covers both North American and international installations. If you're deploying in a multi-site enterprise with mixed regulatory environments, a single SKU satisfies both requirements — fewer line items on the procurement side.
- UL 94 V-0 flammability rating: V-0 is the highest UL flame-spread class for plastics — the material self-extinguishes within 10 seconds after the flame source is removed, with no dripping. For in-ceiling or in-wall runs where code requires limited-combustible materials, this rating matters at inspection time.
- White (color-coded): White jacket supports color-coded patch cord management schemes — standard in data centers and IDF closets where port-to-circuit traceability is enforced. At 39.4 inches, it's a predictable, manageable length that won't bunch in a shallow patch panel.
- RoHS compliant: Meets EU Restriction of Hazardous Substances requirements, which matters for enterprise buyers with sustainability mandates or EU deployment sites.
- Factory-terminated, single-piece construction: Each FC-ICCP1MWH ships as a complete, tested connecting cord — no field termination required. This eliminates the most common source of Cat 6A channel failures: improper field terminations that degrade return loss and NEXT performance.
Integration & Compatibility
The FC-ICCP1MWH is designed to integrate within a full Panduit Pan-Net® Cat 6A UTP channel. Standards conformance (ANSI/TIA Cat 6A, ISO Class EA) means it is also interoperable with third-party Cat 6A components, though Panduit's performance guarantee applies specifically when terminated to Panduit Category 6A UTP copper cable. The cord supports the full PoE power delivery spectrum — standard PoE (802.3af), PoE+ (802.3at), and PoE++ (802.3bt, Type 3 and Type 4, up to 100 W) — making it suitable for consolidation-point connections feeding any current-generation powered device without derating. For IP surveillance deployments, this cord (often searched as FC ICCP1MWH) works in horizontal connection zones between the floor distributor and a zone enclosure, keeping the overall channel within ANSI/TIA-568 length limits. Pair it with Panduit Cat 6A keystone jacks and patch panels for a fully conformant, end-to-end structured cabling solution.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does the FC-ICCP1MWH support PoE++ (802.3bt) at full 100 W?
A: Yes. The FC-ICCP1MWH is rated to support PoE, PoE+, and proposed Type 3 and Type 4 PoE++ applications for up to 100 W, per the standards documentation for this product.
Q: What performance standard does this cord meet?
A: The FC-ICCP1MWH exceeds ANSI/TIA Category 6A and ISO Class EA performance requirements when properly terminated to Panduit Category 6A UTP copper cable. It also meets ANSI/TIA-1096-A (formerly FCC Part 68) and IEC-60603-7.
Q: What is the flammability rating on the FC-ICCP1MWH jacket?
A: UL 94 V-0 — the highest UL flame classification for plastics, meaning the material self-extinguishes within 10 seconds with no flaming drip. Suitable for plenum and in-wall applications where limited-combustible materials are required at inspection.
Q: Is the FC-ICCP1MWH RoHS compliant?
A: Yes, the FC-ICCP1MWH is RoHS compliant, meeting EU Restriction of Hazardous Substances requirements.
Q: What is the exact length of this connecting cord?
A: The overall length is 39.4 inches (approximately 1 meter), making it suited for short consolidation-point and horizontal connection zone splice runs.
Q: How many cords are in a carton?
A: Each order unit is a single cord (package quantity: 1). Carton quantity is 10, so a full carton contains 10 individual FC-ICCP1MWH cords.
The FC-ICCP1MWH is one of those components that gets overlooked in the BOM until you're trying to close a Cat 6A channel at a consolidation point and everything else in the rack is Panduit spec. The 39.4-inch length is deliberate — it fits the standard horizontal connection zone geometry without coiling excess cord inside an enclosure, and the UL 94 V-0 jacket keeps you on the right side of the AHJ when the cord runs through a ceiling plenum. What I specifically look at for this SKU is the 100 W PoE++ rating: most commodity Cat 6A cords are silent on Type 3/4 support, and you don't want to find out a $2 cord is your channel's thermal choke point when you're feeding a 90 W PTZ camera or a tri-radio Wi-Fi 6E AP.
Technical Highlights:
- 100 W PoE++ (Type 3 & 4) rating: explicitly rated for proposed 802.3bt Type 3 and Type 4 applications up to 100 W — not just PoE+ like most commodity cords, so it won't be the failure point on high-draw powered devices.
- Exceeds ANSI/TIA Cat 6A + ISO Class EA: headroom above minimum spec absorbs real-world channel imperfections at the splice mated connection without dropping below conformance thresholds.
- UL 94 V-0 flammability: self-extinguishes within 10 seconds, no flaming drip — satisfies AHJ requirements for limited-combustible materials in plenum and in-wall cable paths.
Deployment Considerations:
- Panduit's performance guarantee for exceeding Cat 6A/ISO EA applies specifically when this cord is terminated to Panduit Cat 6A UTP copper cable — if your horizontal run is a third-party cable, you still meet the standard, but Panduit's system warranty won't cover the channel end-to-end.
- At 39.4 inches fixed length, confirm the consolidation-point enclosure depth before ordering in quantity — it's not field-shortenable without re-termination, and re-terminating a factory cord voids the Cat 6A performance claim.
For high-density IP surveillance or 802.3bt PoE deployments where the consolidation-point cord is feeding 60–90 W cameras or access points, the FC-ICCP1MWH earns its place in the BOM as the verified, 100 W-rated link that won't be your diagnostic headache six months post-commissioning.
