Panduit UTP28X7.5MOR Cat 6A Utp Patch Cord

Product Description

The PANDUIT UTP28X7.5MOR is a Cat 6A 28 AWG unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cord designed for structured cabling applications in commercial and enterprise network environments. Built to Cat 6A performance standards, this patch cord supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and high-bandwidth data transmission. The 28 AWG conductor gauge makes it a slim, lightweight option compared to standard 23 AWG patch cords, reducing cable bundle diameter and improving airflow management in high-density patching environments. It is installed by network technicians, low-voltage cabling contractors, and data center infrastructure teams.

This patch cord is suited for use in horizontal and equipment room patching scenarios, connecting network switches, patch panels, servers, and end-user devices. Its Cat 6A rating makes it appropriate for both standard Ethernet and Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) deployments in office buildings, data centers, and industrial network closets. The slim form factor is particularly useful in high-density patch panel installations where cable management space is limited.

Key Features

• Cat 6A performance rating supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications
• 28 AWG conductor gauge for reduced cable diameter in dense installations
• UTP construction — no shielding required, simplifies termination and routing
• Sold individually (each), unit of measure: EA

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard patch cord for use with Cat 6A-rated patch panels, keystone jacks, and network switch ports in structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician following TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Power down or place ports in an administrative-down state before replacing active patch cords in live environments when disruption must be minimized. Avoid sharp bends below the minimum bend radius and do not over-cinch hook-and-loop or cable ties, as either can degrade Cat 6A signal performance. Verify patch cord length is appropriate for the run before installation to avoid slack management issues.
