Panduit UTP28SP20MYL Copper Patch Cord Cat6

Product Description

The PANDUIT UTP28SP20MYL is a Category 6 copper patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. It provides reliable twisted-pair signal transmission at Category 6 performance levels, supporting Gigabit Ethernet and other high-speed data protocols. This patch cord is sold as an individual unit and is intended for use by low-voltage cabling technicians, network installers, and IT infrastructure professionals who require consistent, standards-compliant connectivity between patch panels, switches, and end devices.

Category 6 patch cords of this type are used in horizontal and backbone cabling systems, data centers, telecommunications rooms, and office network deployments. They connect active equipment to patch panels or wall jacks in structured cabling systems built to TIA-568 and ISO 11801 standards. The UTP28SP20MYL is suited for new installations as well as moves, adds, and changes in existing network infrastructure.

Key Features

• Category 6 performance rating supports Gigabit Ethernet and high-speed data applications
• Unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) construction for standard structured cabling environments
• Copper conductor construction for reliable signal integrity
• Sold as a single unit for precise quantity management on the job

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or supplemental patch cord for Category 6 structured cabling systems compliant with TIA-568 and ISO 11801 standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician familiar with TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Avoid sharp bends or kinks that exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable, as this can degrade Category 6 performance. Ensure patch panel ports and jack terminations are properly seated before making connections. Do not route alongside high-voltage conductors without maintaining appropriate separation per applicable codes.
