3 ft Cat6a patch cord

This Panduit Category 6a patch cord measures three feet and uses 28 AWG solid copper conductors in an F/UTP construction. It is terminated with RJ-45 male connectors on both ends and meets CM/LSZH jacket ratings. The cord supports 10GBASE-T Ethernet and data-centre consolidation workloads.

Suits dense racks and short links

The slim 4.7 mm diameter eases routing in crowded patch panels and cable managers, while the tangle-free latch speeds moves, adds and changes. Buyers who need longer horizontal runs or shielded cables for noisy environments should consider other options.

28 AWG solid conductor

The 28 AWG solid copper gauge determines insertion loss and bend radius, making it the key figure when deciding if this cord fits a specific link budget or density requirement.

Questions about this item

What bandwidth does the Category 6a rating support in practice?

The Category 6a rating supports 10GBASE-T Ethernet up to 10 Gbps over the full 3 ft length.

What physical clearance does the 4.7 mm diameter and RJ-45 connectors require?

The cord is 4.7 mm in diameter with standard RJ-45 plugs on both ends, so it fits any standard panel port and routes through tight cable managers.

How is the patch cord installed and which step is often missed?

Insert each RJ-45 plug until the latch clicks; the tangle-free latch prevents snags, but users often forget to verify the click for a secure lock.
