Panduit UTPSP4.5MGRY Cat 6 Copper Patch Cord

Product Description

The PANDUIT UTPSP4.5MGRY is a Cat 6 copper patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and enterprise network environments. This gray patch cord delivers reliable Gigabit Ethernet and high-speed data connectivity, meeting Category 6 performance standards for reduced crosstalk and improved signal integrity. At 4.5 meters in length, it bridges patch panel ports to active switching equipment or connects workstation drops to local devices. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors are the primary installers of this type of component.

This patch cord is suited for horizontal and equipment-room cabling applications in commercial buildings, data centers, and institutional facilities. It connects patch panels to switches, routers, or other network hardware in structured cabling systems built to TIA-568 or ISO 11801 standards. The gray jacket color supports color-coded cable management schemes commonly used in organized rack and cabinet installations.

Key Features

• Cat 6 performance rating supports Gigabit Ethernet and 10GBASE-T at shorter runs
• Copper conductor construction for reliable, low-loss signal transmission
• 4.5 meter length suitable for equipment room and intermediate cross-connect applications
• Gray jacket aids color-coded cable management in structured cabling environments
• Sold individually, allowing precise quantity ordering for patch panel builds

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit patch cord for Cat 6 structured cabling systems using 8P8C modular patch panels and network switch ports.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage cabling technicians and network infrastructure installers typically handle Cat 6 patch cord deployment. No special tools are required beyond standard cable management hardware. Avoid sharp bend radii below the minimum specified for Cat 6 cabling, as excessive bending degrades signal performance. Installations in commercial buildings should comply with applicable local codes and TIA-568 structured cabling standards.
