Panduit UTP28SP3MPB/N Cat6 UTP Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit UTP28SP3MPB/N is a 3-meter Category 6 Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) patch cord designed for reliable network connectivity. It features RJ-45 connectors on both ends, plated with gold for optimal signal integrity. This cable is suitable for structured cabling deployments in data centers, enterprise networks, and other environments requiring high-performance Ethernet connections. The pastel blue color aids in visual identification within complex cable management systems, helping to prevent misconnections and simplify troubleshooting. Deploying this cable ensures adherence to Cat6 standards for data transmission up to 1000 Mbps.

Compatibility

This Panduit patch cord is compatible with all standard networking equipment featuring RJ-45 ports, including switches, routers, servers, workstations, and IP cameras. It meets Category 6 specifications, ensuring interoperability with devices requiring 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet speeds. Use it to connect network devices within a rack or to patch panels.

Installation Notes

The cable length is 3 meters (approximately 9.8 feet). Ensure sufficient slack is available for proper cable management without excessive tension or sharp bends, which could compromise performance or damage the conductors. The U/UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) construction means it relies on the overall cable jacket for protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI), making it best suited for environments with low EMI levels or shorter runs.
