Panduit UTPSP49VLY Cat 6 Copper Patch Cord

Product Description

The PANDUIT UTPSP49VLY is a Cat 6 copper patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. Cat 6 patch cords carry Ethernet signals at speeds up to 1 Gigabit per second and are backward compatible with Cat 5e infrastructure. This cord connects network equipment to patch panels, switches, and wall jacks, and is typically installed by low-voltage technicians, electricians, and IT cabling professionals. The green jacket color aids in cable identification and organization within dense patch panel environments.

This patch cord is suited for use in data centers, server rooms, telecommunications closets, and office network installations. It is appropriate for structured cabling systems requiring TIA-568 Cat 6 performance. The green jacket designation supports color-coded cabling policies common in enterprise and commercial installations. Sold individually, it is a standard unit for both new installations and replacement runs.

Key Features

• Cat 6 rated for Gigabit Ethernet performance and backward compatibility with Cat 5e
• Copper conductor construction for reliable signal transmission
• Green jacket for easy identification and color-coded patching
• Sold as individual unit for flexible quantity ordering
• Suitable for patch panel to switch connections in structured cabling systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cord for use with Cat 6 and Cat 5e compatible patch panels, keystone jacks, and network switches in structured cabling installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by low-voltage technicians or electricians working under TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Avoid sharp bends or kinking the cord, as exceeding the minimum bend radius can degrade signal performance. Ensure patch panel ports and jack connections are fully seated before routing cables. De-energizing connected equipment before patching is recommended to prevent network interruption.
