Panduit UTP28SP21OR Cat6 Copper Patch Cord

Product Description

The PANDUIT UTP28SP21OR is a Category 6 copper patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. It provides reliable high-speed data transmission at Cat6 performance standards, supporting Gigabit Ethernet and beyond. This patch cord connects network devices to patch panels, switches, and wall outlets as part of a complete horizontal or zone cabling system. Network technicians and low-voltage installers are the primary trades that specify and install this type of cable assembly.

This patch cord is suited for use in data centers, telecommunications rooms, open office environments, and equipment rack installations. It serves as an interconnect or cross-connect solution in structured cabling systems built to TIA-568 standards. The Cat6 rating makes it appropriate for 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet applications where consistent channel performance is required across the full link.

Key Features

• Category 6 performance for Gigabit Ethernet and high-speed data applications
• Copper conductor construction for dependable electrical continuity
• Factory-terminated patch cord eliminates field termination variability
• Sold as a single unit for flexible quantity purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard patch cord for use in Category 6 structured cabling systems meeting TIA-568-C.2 channel requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by low-voltage technicians or network cabling professionals. Patch cords should be routed with appropriate bend radius management to avoid signal degradation. Do not kink, crush, or exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable during routing. Installations in commercial buildings may be subject to local codes and TIA-568 standards for structured cabling systems.
