Panduit STP28X35MOR Cat 6A Shielded Patch Cable

Product Description

The PANDUIT STP28X35MOR is a Cat 6A shielded patch cable built for structured cabling installations in commercial and enterprise network environments. Constructed with 28 AWG conductors, this cable delivers reliable high-speed data transmission while maintaining a slim, flexible form factor suited for high-density patch panel deployments. The shielded design provides protection against electromagnetic interference, making it appropriate for installations near power runs or other noise sources. Network technicians and low-voltage installers rely on this cable type for connecting switches, patch panels, servers, and other active network equipment in data centers, server rooms, and telecommunications closets.

This patch cable is intended for use in Cat 6A structured cabling systems supporting 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications. The 28 AWG construction reduces cable bulk compared to standard 23 AWG patch cables, which is a practical advantage in densely populated cable management environments. It is well suited for horizontal runs from patch panels to equipment ports, as well as for inter-rack connections in data center applications where cable management and airflow are critical considerations.

Key Features

• Cat 6A rating supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet data transmission
• Shielded construction reduces electromagnetic and radio frequency interference
• 28 AWG conductors provide a slimmer, more flexible cable body than standard patch cables
• Pre-terminated design for direct installation without field termination tools
• Suitable for high-density patch environments where cable management space is limited

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cable for use with Cat 6A shielded patch panels and shielded keystone jacks in structured cabling systems meeting TIA-568-C.2-1 or ISO/IEC 11801 Cat 6A channel requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a low-voltage cabling technician or network technician. Ensure the patch cable shield is properly terminated to a grounded shielded patch panel or shielded port to maintain the integrity of the shielded channel. Do not exceed the cable minimum bend radius during routing, as excessive bending can degrade signal performance. Follow TIA-568 standards for cable management and labeling practices.
