High-Performance 28 AWG Design for Space-Efficient Network Solutions
The Panduit Cat.6a UTP patch cable showcases an optimized 28 AWG construction that delivers superior performance while maintaining a smaller diameter than traditional cables. This slim profile enhances cable management and reduces congestion in high-density installations, making it ideal for data centers and network closets.
Engineered with precision RJ-45 connectors and clear boots, this cable ensures reliable connectivity while supporting advanced PoE and PoE+ applications. The vibrant blue jacket provides easy identification and tracing in complex network installations, while the halogen-free construction maintains environmental safety standards.
Technical Specifications
28 AWG construction for reduced cable diameter and improved flexibility
Category 6a performance supporting up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet
PoE and PoE+ certified for powered device compatibility
The Panduit UTP28X5YL Cat.6a network cable features PoE and PoE+ support, halogen-free construction, and 28 AWG wire gauge. It comes with RJ-45 male connectors on both ends, clear boots for protection, and a yellow cable color for easy identification. The cable is 5 feet long and is designed for high-speed data transmission with Category 6a performance specifications. It's environmentally friendly, RoHS compliant, and backed by a 1-year limited warranty.
Yes, the Panduit UTP28X5YL fully supports both PoE and PoE+ standards, making it compatible with devices that require power delivery through network cables. This capability allows you to power devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points without the need for separate power cables, simplifying installation and reducing cable clutter.
This network cable is 5 feet (1.52 meters) in length and features RJ-45 male connectors on both ends. Each connector is protected by a clear boot to prevent cable strain and ensure durability. The 5-foot length makes it ideal for short-range connections between network devices in close proximity, such as connecting computers to nearby switches or patch panels.
The Panduit UTP28X5YL is environmentally friendly due to its halogen-free construction and RoHS compliance. The halogen-free design means it produces less toxic smoke in case of fire, making it safer for indoor installations. Additionally, its RoHS certification ensures the cable is manufactured without harmful substances like lead, mercury, and other hazardous materials, contributing to a more sustainable networking infrastructure.
This is a Category 6a (Cat.6a) cable, which is designed to support data transmission speeds of up to 10 Gigabits per second (10GbE) at frequencies up to 500 MHz. The Cat.6a specification provides improved performance over standard Cat.6, especially in terms of alien crosstalk reduction, making it ideal for high-speed network applications and future-proof installations.
The 28 AWG (American Wire Gauge) specification indicates this is a thin-diameter cable, making it more flexible and easier to manage in dense installations. While traditional network cables often use 24 or 26 AWG, the 28 AWG design allows for better cable management and higher port density in patch panels and network racks, while still maintaining Cat.6a performance specifications.
The Panduit UTP28X5YL Cat.6a network cable comes with a 1-year limited warranty from the manufacturer. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship, providing assurance of the cable's quality and reliability. Panduit's reputation as a leading network infrastructure manufacturer backs this warranty commitment.
This cable features a distinctive yellow jacket color and clear boots, making it easy to identify in complex network installations. The yellow color coding helps in quick visual identification and cable management, while the clear boots protect the RJ-45 connectors while maintaining visibility of the connection. These features are particularly useful in environments with multiple cable runs or when troubleshooting network connections.
