Panduit UTPSP49BLY Cat 6 Copper Patch Cord

Product Description

The PANDUIT UTPSP49BLY is a Cat 6 copper patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. Cat 6 patch cords carry Ethernet data at up to 1 Gbps across standard horizontal cabling runs and serve as the final connection link between wall jacks, patch panels, and active network equipment. This cord ships as a single unit and is suited for data center technicians, low-voltage contractors, and network installers working within TIA-568 compliant infrastructure.

This patch cord is used in horizontal and equipment-room cabling applications where Cat 6 performance is specified. Typical install scenarios include connecting structured cabling patch panels to network switches, linking workstation outlets to desktop equipment, and completing runs in multi-tenant commercial buildouts. The black jacket color supports color-coded port management and cable identification in dense patch environments.

Key Features

• Cat 6 rated for Gigabit Ethernet performance
• Copper conductor construction for reliable signal transmission
• Black jacket for easy identification and port color-coding
• Single-unit packaging suitable for per-port replacement or spot installs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat 6 patch cord for use with TIA-568-compliant Cat 6 patch panels, keystone jacks, and RJ45 network ports in structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by low-voltage cabling technicians or network infrastructure contractors. De-energize or administratively shut down the port before connecting or disconnecting patch cords in live switch environments where hot-plug procedures are not in place. Route cords through cable management hardware to prevent bend-radius violations that can degrade Cat 6 signal performance. Follow TIA-568 guidelines for patch cord length limits within the channel.
