Panduit STP28X1MOR Cat 6A Shielded Patch Cord

Product Description

The PANDUIT STP28X1MOR is a Cat 6A shielded patch cord constructed with 28 AWG conductors. It provides a fully shielded connection that supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and meets Category 6A performance standards. The shielded design suppresses electromagnetic interference, making it suitable for high-density structured cabling environments. Licensed electricians and low-voltage cabling technicians are the typical installers. The slim 28 AWG construction reduces cable bulk in crowded pathways and rack enclosures while maintaining reliable signal integrity across the full Cat 6A frequency range.

This patch cord is used in commercial and enterprise network installations where shielded cabling infrastructure is required. Typical applications include connecting patch panels to network switches, servers to top-of-rack switching equipment, and structured cabling runs in data centers or telecommunications rooms. The shielded construction is especially appropriate in environments with high electromagnetic interference, such as industrial facilities or dense rack deployments.

Key Features

• Cat 6A performance supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications
• Shielded construction reduces electromagnetic and radio frequency interference
• 28 AWG slim conductors reduce cable fill in high-density pathways and enclosures
• Sold individually as a single unit for precise quantity ordering

Compatibility

Designed for use with Cat 6A shielded structured cabling systems and compatible shielded RJ45 keystone jacks, patch panels, and switch ports that accept Cat 6A shielded patch cords.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage cabling technician or licensed electrician in accordance with applicable codes including ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Ensure all mated shielded jacks and panel ports are properly bonded to a common ground to maintain shield continuity and avoid ground loops. Avoid sharp bends beyond the minimum bend radius and do not cinch cable ties excessively, as either can degrade Cat 6A signal performance.
