Panduit UTP28X19MGR Cat 6A 28 Awg Utp Patch Cord

Product Description

The PANDUIT UTP28X19MGR is a Category 6A unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cord constructed with 28 AWG conductors. It is designed to support high-speed structured cabling installations in commercial and industrial network environments. The slim 28 AWG gauge reduces cable diameter and weight compared to standard 23 AWG Cat 6A cables, making it well suited for high-density patching scenarios where airflow and cable management matter. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling installers are the primary trades that deploy this patch cord in data centers, telecommunications rooms, and equipment racks.

This patch cord is used in horizontal and equipment room cabling applications that require Cat 6A performance. Its reduced-diameter profile makes it a practical choice for dense patch panel installations where multiple cables must be routed through cable managers without restricting airflow. It is sold as a single unit and is appropriate for structured cabling projects in both new construction and retrofit environments where 10-gigabit Ethernet performance is required.

Key Features

• Category 6A performance supports 10-gigabit Ethernet applications
• 28 AWG conductors reduce cable bulk for high-density patch panel installations
• UTP construction eliminates the need for grounding infrastructure required by shielded designs
• Sold as a single unit for flexible procurement on small and large projects alike

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard installation component for Cat 6A structured cabling systems utilizing RJ45 patch panels and keystone jacks rated for Category 6A performance.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician in accordance with ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Avoid sharp bends and observe the minimum bend radius specified for Cat 6A cabling to maintain signal integrity. Do not exceed the rated pulling tension when routing cables through conduit or cable managers. Power down connected active equipment at the switch or patch panel port before disconnecting or reconnecting patch cords where hot-swap procedures are not supported.
