Ortronics RDC61007-05 Cat6a Patch Cord 28AWG 7ft Green

Product Description

The ORTRONICS RDC61007-05 is a Cat6A patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and enterprise network environments. Built to 28 AWG, this slim-profile cord supports 10-Gigabit Ethernet applications over Category 6A infrastructure. The green jacket provides quick visual identification in dense patch panel environments. At 7 feet in length, it suits typical horizontal connections between patch panels and active equipment in standard equipment racks and telecommunications rooms. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors install this cord during moves, adds, and changes or initial infrastructure buildouts.

This patch cord is suited for use in data centers, server rooms, telecommunications closets, and enterprise LAN environments. It connects network switches, patch panels, routers, and end-user equipment operating on Cat6A cabling plants. The 7-foot length handles most rack-to-rack and panel-to-equipment runs without excess slack. The green color coding supports common TIA-568 color-assignment schemes used in structured cabling documentation and administration.

Key Features

• Cat6A rated for 10-Gigabit Ethernet performance
• 28 AWG slim conductor profile reduces cable bulk in high-density installations
• 7-foot length suits standard rack and telecommunications room patch connections
• Green jacket enables visual identification and color-coded patching schemes
• Sold individually for flexible quantity purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cord for use with Cat6A-compliant patch panels, keystone jacks, and network equipment ports in structured cabling systems meeting TIA-568-C.2-10 or ISO/IEC 11801 Category 6A standards.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage cabling technicians and IT infrastructure staff install Cat6A patch cords without special tools, though proper strain relief and bend radius should be maintained per TIA-568 guidelines. Do not exceed the minimum bend radius of the cord during routing, as tight bends can degrade signal performance on Cat6A links. Power down or disconnect active equipment ports when performing patching work in live environments to prevent accidental network disruption. Follow applicable BICSI and TIA installation standards for structured cabling administration and labeling.
