Built to TIA-568 Cat 6A performance standards, this patch cord supports 10-Gigabit Ethernet and high-bandwidth applications up to 500 MHz. The 28 AWG slim-profile conductor construction reduces cable diameter compared to standard 23 AWG patch cords, making it well suited for high-density patch panels and cable management scenarios where airflow and space are limited. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors are the primary installers of this product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis patch cord is used in horizontal and equipment-room cabling runs connecting patch panels, switches, servers, and end devices. The slim 28 AWG design is particularly common in data centers, server rooms, and high-density telecommunications rooms where rack space and airflow management are critical. It is sold individually as a single unit and is appropriate for both new installations and moves-adds-changes (MACs) in existing Cat 6A structured cabling systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCat 6A performance rating supports 10-Gigabit Ethernet and up to 500 MHz bandwidth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e28 AWG slim conductor profile reduces cable bulk in high-density patch environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUTP construction requires no grounding infrastructure, simplifying deployment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold as a single unit for flexible quantity purchasing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use patch cord for Cat 6A UTP structured cabling systems meeting TIA-568 performance requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed low-voltage cabling technicians or network infrastructure contractors. No tools are required for termination at the patch cord level, but rack and panel installations should follow TIA-568 and applicable local codes. Avoid sharp bend radii that exceed the cable minimum bend radius, as this can degrade signal performance in Cat 6A assemblies. Power down active switch ports or follow site change-management procedures before patching live network equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cat 6A\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConductor Gauge\u003c\/strong\u003e: 28 AWG\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each (EA)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity Per Unit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PANDUIT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: UTP28X16VL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PANDUIT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51557773050162,"sku":"UTP28X16VL","price":84.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ddbfebaf7477033bb405612a2501e2fe_58cc43b7-7290-4c15-ac1a-5e7a06fd8288.jpg?v=1786394832","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/panduit-utp28x16vl-cat-6a-28-awg-utp-patch-cord","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
