Panduit STP6X14OR Cat 6a Copper Patch Cord

Product Description

The PANDUIT STP6X14OR is a shielded Cat 6a copper patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and enterprise network environments. Cat 6a cabling supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet at frequencies up to 500 MHz, making it a standard choice for high-density data centers, telecommunications rooms, and horizontal runs where signal integrity and crosstalk rejection are critical. This patch cord is supplied in orange, which is commonly used for color-coded cable management schemes. Installation is handled by licensed low-voltage cabling technicians or network infrastructure professionals.

This patch cord is suited for use in commercial buildings, data centers, server rooms, and structured cabling systems requiring Cat 6a performance. The orange jacket aids in port identification and cable pathway management in high-density patch panels and switch installations. It ships as a single unit and is appropriate for both new installations and moves, adds, and changes in existing network infrastructure.

Key Features

• Cat 6a performance supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 500 MHz
• Shielded construction reduces alien crosstalk in high-density environments
• Orange jacket facilitates color-coded cable management
• Copper conductor construction for standard structured cabling applications
• Sold as individual unit for flexible quantity purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cord for use with Cat 6a shielded patch panels, keystone jacks, and RJ45 ports in standard structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician following TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Power down active equipment or follow your site lockout/tagout procedure before handling patch connections in live racks. Avoid sharp bends that exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable. Inspect connectors for damage before seating to prevent port damage on switches or patch panels.
