Panduit UTP28SP6INRD-48 Cat6 Copper Patch Cord

Product Description

The PANDUIT UTP28SP6INRD-48 is a Category 6 copper patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. This patch cord provides reliable, high-speed data transmission across horizontal and backbone cabling segments. Category 6 performance supports Gigabit Ethernet and other high-bandwidth applications. The cord is sold as a single unit and is installed by low-voltage cabling technicians, network installers, and licensed electricians performing data infrastructure work.

This patch cord is suited for use in telecommunications rooms, server rooms, data centers, and general office network deployments. It connects network switches, patch panels, routers, and end-user devices in structured cabling systems built to TIA-568 Category 6 standards. The red jacket color aids in cable identification and color-coded port management, which is a common practice in high-density patch panel installations.

Key Features

• Category 6 performance supports Gigabit Ethernet and 250 MHz bandwidth
• Copper conductor construction ensures low insertion loss and reliable signal integrity
• Red jacket color supports visual cable management and port identification
• Single-unit packaging allows flexible quantity purchasing for maintenance and additions
• Compact form factor suited for high-density patch panel environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or addition for Category 6 structured cabling systems using standard RJ45 patch panels and network equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by low-voltage cabling technicians in accordance with TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Avoid sharp bends exceeding the minimum bend radius of the cable to prevent signal degradation. Do not over-cinch cable ties, as excessive compression on the cable jacket can affect Category 6 performance. Verify patch panel and equipment ports are Category 6 rated to maintain full system performance.
