This 20-foot patch cord provides a reliable, terminated connection between network switches, patch panels, and end devices. Built to Cat 5e performance standards, it supports data transmission applications where consistent signal integrity is required. Licensed electricians and low-voltage cabling technicians are the primary installers for this type of cordage in both new construction and retrofit cabling projects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis patch cord is suited for horizontal and equipment-bay cabling in office buildings, data closets, server rooms, and light commercial environments. It is typically used to connect structured cabling patch panels to network switches or to provide workstation drops at the point of use. The gray jacket color aids in visual cable management and color-coded patching schemes common in organized cabling infrastructures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCat 5e performance rating supports standard 10\/100\/1000BASE-T Ethernet applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCopper conductor construction for reliable electrical continuity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e20-foot length provides reach for equipment rack and patch panel connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGray jacket color supports color-coded cable management practices\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFactory-terminated ends eliminate field termination and reduce installation errors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style patch cord for use with Cat 5e-rated patch panels, keystone jacks, and network switches in standard structured cabling systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLow-voltage cabling technicians or licensed electricians typically install structured cabling patch cords in accordance with TIA-568 standards. No tools are required for patch cord installation. Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cord, as these can degrade signal performance. Confirm that all patch panel and switch ports are powered down or set to inactive before repatching in live environments where service interruption is a concern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cat 5e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConductor Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJacket Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Gray\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity Per Unit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PANDUIT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: UTP28CH20GY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PANDUIT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51562516382002,"sku":"UTP28CH20GY","price":49.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8e2d0bc63215f7375eafbc65179bf5fd.jpg?v=1786478566","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/panduit-utp28ch20gy-copper-patch-cord-cat-5e-20-ft","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
