Panduit Pan-Net® Category 6 UTP Copper Patch Cord, Blue, 11 ft. (UTP28SP11BU)

Panduit Pan-Net® Category 6 UTP Copper Patch Cord — 11 ft., Blue

The Panduit Pan-Net® UTP28SP11BU is a Category 6, 28 AWG unshielded twisted pair (UTP) copper patch cord designed for high-density structured cabling environments. Terminated with 8-position RJ-45 modular plugs at both ends per T568B wiring, this cord delivers certified Cat 6 component-level performance while occupying significantly less cabinet space than traditional 24 AWG patch cords.

Performance & Standards Compliance

• Exceeds all ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6 and ISO 11801 Class E electrical performance requirements up to 250 MHz
• 100% factory tested for wire map, NEXT, and return loss — guaranteed component-level performance on every cord
• Supports IEEE 802.3af/802.3at (PoE) with 48 cables in a bundle; 802.3bt Type 3 and Type 4 (PoE++) with 24 cables in a bundle
• Meets ANSI/TIA-1096-A (FCC Part 68) and IEC 60603-7
• c(UL)us Listed — UL 1863 and CAN/CSA-C22.2 (UL File E129886)
• RoHS Compliant (EU Directive 2011/65/EU)

Construction

• 28 AWG stranded, tinned, twisted pair conductors — dual-rated CM/LSZH jacket
• Nominal cable diameter: 0.15 in. (3.8 mm) — less than half the diameter of standard Cat 6 patch cords
• UL94V-0 rated clear polycarbonate plug housing
• Gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts with 50 microinch gold plating for superior signal integrity
• Operating temperature: 14°F to 167°F (−10°C to 75°C)

Key Benefits

• High-density routing: Smaller cable diameter allows twice the number of patch cords through cable managers and pathways compared to traditional Cat 5e/6 cords
• Improved airflow: Reduced bulk facilitates better cooling in populated cabinets and patch panels, lowering operating costs
