Panduit UTP28X6.5MOR Cat 6A 28 Awg Utp Patch Cord

Product Description

The PANDUIT UTP28X6.5MOR is a Cat 6A 28 AWG unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and enterprise network environments. At 6.5 feet in length, this patch cord supports high-speed data transmission up to 10 Gbps as specified by the TIA-568 Cat 6A standard. The slim 28 AWG conductor profile reduces cable bulk in high-density patch panel applications. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors install this cord to connect switches, patch panels, servers, and end devices.

This patch cord is suited for horizontal and equipment room cabling in commercial office, data center, and light industrial environments. The UTP construction works in installations where external interference is minimal and shielding is not required by the network design. It is commonly deployed in high-density patch bay configurations where a thinner cable diameter improves airflow and cable management. The orange jacket aids in visual identification and color-coded cable management schemes.

Key Features

• Cat 6A performance supporting up to 10 Gbps data transmission
• 28 AWG slim conductor reduces bulk in high-density patch environments
• UTP construction suitable for low-interference network installations
• 6.5-foot length fits standard rack-to-device and panel-to-switch runs
• Orange jacket supports color-coded cable management practices

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard patch cord for Cat 6A UTP structured cabling systems using RJ45 terminations per TIA-568 and ISO/IEC 11801 standards.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage cabling technicians install this patch cord in accordance with TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Verify that patch panel ports and switch ports are rated for Cat 6A before deployment. Avoid sharp bends below the minimum bend radius to preserve cable performance. Do not run patch cords alongside high-voltage power cables without maintaining adequate separation per NEC guidelines.
