Panduit UTP28SP7RD-Q Cat6 Copper Patch Cord

Product Description

The PANDUIT UTP28SP7RD-Q is a Category 6 copper patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. It provides a flexible, pre-terminated copper cable solution used to connect network equipment, patch panels, switches, and wall outlets. Category 6 performance supports data transmission up to 250 MHz bandwidth, making it suitable for Gigabit Ethernet and other high-speed network applications. Network installers and low-voltage technicians rely on this type of patch cord for clean, reliable connections within telecommunications rooms and data closets.

This patch cord is used in standard horizontal and backbone cabling systems where Cat6 performance is specified. Typical installations include structured cabling runs between patch panels and network switches, workstation drops, and equipment rack connections. It is sold as an individual unit and is suited for both new construction and retrofit wiring projects requiring Cat6-compliant patch connections.

Key Features

• Category 6 performance rated for high-speed data and voice network applications
• Copper conductor construction for reliable signal transmission
• Pre-terminated ends for quick, tool-free installation at patch panels and switches
• Sold as a single unit for flexible inventory management
• Designed for use in structured cabling environments per standard telecom room layouts

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-fit patch cord for Category 6 structured cabling systems using standard RJ45 terminations in commercial and residential data network installations.

Installation Notes

This patch cord is typically installed by low-voltage technicians or network cabling professionals. No special tools are required for termination as the cord arrives pre-terminated. Installations should follow TIA-568 structured cabling standards for bend radius and cable management. Avoid sharp bends or excessive tension, which can degrade Cat6 performance.
