Panduit UTP28X110VL Cat 6A 28 Awg Utp Patch Cord

Product Description

The PANDUIT UTP28X110VL is a Cat 6A unshielded twisted pair patch cord built on 28 AWG conductors. It provides high-speed structured cabling connectivity for data networks that require Category 6A performance. The slimmer 28 AWG gauge reduces bundle diameter compared to standard 23 AWG Cat 6A cables, making it a practical choice in high-density patching environments. Licensed network technicians and low-voltage installers typically deploy this cord in data centers, server rooms, and commercial telecommunications rooms where port density and cable management are critical concerns.

This patch cord is suited for horizontal and equipment-side patching in structured cabling systems that conform to ANSI/TIA-568 Cat 6A specifications. Its UTP construction makes it appropriate for standard commercial and enterprise network deployments where external shielding is not required. The reduced cable diameter is particularly useful in high-density patch panels and switch bays where airflow and cable routing space are limited.

Key Features

• Cat 6A performance supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications up to 100 meters
• 28 AWG slim conductor profile reduces bundle size in high-density patching environments
• UTP construction simplifies termination and eliminates the need for bonding or grounding
• Sold as individual unit for flexible quantity purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cord compatible with Cat 6A-rated patch panels, keystone jacks, and RJ45 switch ports in standard structured cabling installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage technician familiar with ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Avoid sharp bends below the minimum bend radius of the cable to prevent performance degradation. Do not exceed the maximum pulling tension when routing through conduit or cable managers. Power down connected equipment or ensure the relevant switch port is inactive before swapping patch cords in live environments.
