Panduit UTP28SP3MPB/N Concise Descriptor

Overview

The Panduit UTP28SP3MPB/N is a 3-foot Category 6 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cord. It's designed for reliable network connectivity in structured cabling systems, providing a clean and organized way to connect devices like cameras, NVRs, or workstations to network switches. The pastel blue color aids in visual identification within dense server racks or wiring closets, reducing connection errors during maintenance or upgrades. This cable is factory-terminated with snagless boots, protecting the RJ45 connectors and preventing cable damage during installation.

Compatibility

This Category 6 patch cord is compatible with all standard networking equipment utilizing RJ45 connectors, including but not limited to: IP cameras from brands such as Axis, Hanwha, Hikvision, and Dahua; network video recorders (NVRs); managed and unmanaged network switches; servers; workstations; and VoIP phones. It meets Category 6 performance standards, ensuring data transmission up to 1 Gbps over 100 meters, making it suitable for Gigabit Ethernet networks.

Installation Notes

Ensure the cable is not bent tighter than its minimum bend radius (typically 4 times the cable diameter) to maintain signal integrity. The snagless boots protect the RJ45 clip, but care should still be taken when inserting and removing connectors from ports to avoid damaging the port or the connector itself.
