Panduit UTPSP3.5MRDY Cat 6 Copper Patch Cord Red

Product Description

The PANDUIT UTPSP3.5MRDY is a Cat 6 copper patch cord in red, designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and enterprise network environments. Patch cords of this type terminate network equipment, patch panels, and wall jacks using standard RJ45 connectors. The red jacket color is commonly used to designate specific network segments or VLANs, helping technicians quickly identify cable function during installation and maintenance. This cord is sold as an individual unit and is intended for use by network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors working to TIA-568 or ISO 11801 cabling standards.

This patch cord is suited for horizontal and equipment-room cabling runs in office buildings, data centers, and campus network installations. It connects switches, routers, patch panels, and end-user devices within structured cabling systems built to Cat 6 performance specifications. The 3.5 meter length accommodates typical rack-to-rack or patch-panel-to-switch runs without excess slack. Network installers working in color-coded cabling environments will find the red jacket useful for visual circuit identification.

Key Features

• Cat 6 rated copper construction for gigabit and 10-gigabit short-run network performance
• 3.5 meter length suitable for equipment room and horizontal patch applications
• Red jacket supports color-coded cabling schemes for circuit identification
• Sold as a single unit for flexible quantity purchasing
• Designed for structured cabling environments following TIA-568 and ISO 11801 standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cord for use with Cat 6 structured cabling systems using standard RJ45 patch panels, keystone jacks, and network equipment ports.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by low-voltage cabling technicians or network infrastructure contractors. No tools are required beyond standard cable management accessories. Avoid sharp bends beyond the minimum bend radius of the cable jacket to prevent signal degradation. Follow TIA-568 guidelines for patch cord routing and strain relief at connection points.
