Panduit STP28X1.5MVL Cat 6A Shielded Patch Cable

Product Description

The PANDUIT STP28X1.5MVL is a Cat 6A shielded twisted-pair patch cable constructed with 28 AWG conductors. It is designed to provide high-speed data transmission with full shielding to suppress electromagnetic interference in structured cabling installations. The cable measures 1.5 meters in length and ships as a single unit. Electricians and low-voltage data cabling technicians install this type of cable to connect network equipment in patch panels, server racks, and wall-port applications where Cat 6A performance is required.

This patch cable is suited for use in commercial and enterprise structured cabling environments where shielded cabling infrastructure is specified. Typical deployment scenarios include data centers, telecommunications rooms, and high-density rack installations where 10-Gigabit Ethernet performance is needed. The 28 AWG construction reduces cable bulk and bend radius compared to standard 23 AWG patch cables, making it a practical choice in congested cable management areas.

Key Features

• Cat 6A performance rating supporting 10-Gigabit Ethernet applications
• Shielded construction reduces electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference
• 28 AWG conductors allow tighter bend radius and reduced bulk versus heavier-gauge patch cables
• 1.5-meter length suits standard rack-to-rack and panel-to-switch runs
• Single-unit packaging for individual replacement or targeted infrastructure additions

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cable for use with Cat 6A shielded structured cabling systems requiring standard RJ45 terminated patch connections.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage cabling technicians install shielded patch cables in accordance with TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Ensure the shielded cable is properly bonded to a grounded patch panel or keystone system to realize the full EMI suppression benefit of the shielding. Avoid sharp bends beyond the cable's minimum bend radius. No tools are required for installation; simply seat the RJ45 connectors fully into the host ports until the locking tab clicks into place.
