Panduit STP28X2.5MIG Concise Descriptor
Overview
The Panduit STP28X2.5MIG is a 2.5-meter Category 6A patch cable designed for high-density network environments. It features 28 AWG stranded copper conductors and a CM/LSZH (Communications Multipurpose/Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket, making it suitable for plenum or riser spaces where fire safety and low smoke emission are critical. This cable ensures reliable data transmission for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) networks, supporting applications like high-speed data transfer, video streaming, and IP surveillance backbones.
Compatibility
This cable is engineered to meet TIA/EIA-568-C.2 standards for Category 6A performance. It is compatible with all standard RJ45 connectors and network devices, including switches, routers, servers, and workstations. Specifically, it supports high-bandwidth applications on 10GbE networks and is suitable for use with Panduit's Net-Access™ cabinets and other high-density structured cabling systems. It is designed to support 10GBASE-T Ethernet up to 100 meters when used as part of a complete Cat6A system.
Installation Notes
The 28 AWG stranded construction provides flexibility for routing in tight spaces, but care should be taken to avoid excessive bending or kinking, which can degrade performance. The CM/LSZH jacket offers improved fire safety characteristics compared to standard PVC jackets, making it compliant with building codes for use in plenum and riser applications. Ensure termination points are clean and connections are secure to maintain signal integrity.
