Panduit STP28X15MOR Cat 6A Shielded Patch Cable

Product Description

The PANDUIT STP28X15MOR is a Cat 6A shielded patch cable built for structured cabling installations that demand reliable high-speed data transmission and electromagnetic interference protection. Constructed with 28 AWG conductors, this cable delivers the slim, flexible profile preferred in high-density patching environments such as server rooms, data centers, and telecommunications closets. The shielded design helps suppress crosstalk and EMI, supporting the signal integrity requirements of 10-Gigabit Ethernet applications. Licensed electricians and low-voltage cabling technicians are the typical installers of this category of patch cable.

This patch cable is suited for use in structured cabling systems that require Cat 6A performance as defined by TIA-568 and ISO/IEC 11801 standards. The 28 AWG gauge and shielded construction make it well-suited for switch-to-patch-panel connections, server rack cabling, and other horizontal or equipment-room runs where cable management space is limited. It is sold as a single unit.

Key Features

• Cat 6A performance supporting 10-Gigabit Ethernet applications
• 28 AWG conductors provide a slim, flexible form factor for high-density environments
• Shielded construction reduces EMI and crosstalk interference
• Pre-terminated patch cable for plug-and-play installation
• Suitable for structured cabling in data centers and telecom closets

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit patch cable for Cat 6A shielded structured cabling systems and compatible shielded keystone or patch panel ports.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or electrician in accordance with TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Ensure that all patch panels and switch ports are shielded and properly bonded to ground before connecting shielded patch cables, as an ungrounded shield can increase rather than reduce interference. Avoid sharp bends below the cable minimum bend radius to preserve signal performance.
