Panduit Cat 6a Patch Cable 3 ft

The Panduit UTP28X3YL is a Category 6a patch cable with RJ-45 male connectors on both ends. It uses 28 AWG conductors and a yellow jacket with clear boots. The cable supports Power over Ethernet and PoE+ for devices that draw power through the network link. It is halogen free and carries an environmentally friendly designation.

Suited for short rack or desk links.

This cable suits installers who need a short, factory-terminated Cat 6a link between a switch and a patch panel or end device. The 3 ft length fits tight cabinet spaces and reduces slack. Buyers who need longer horizontal runs, in-wall rated jackets, or unbooted connectors should look at other cable types.

Category 6a rating with 28 AWG conductors

The single specification that decides fit is the Category 6a rating combined with 28 AWG construction. This determines the bandwidth headroom and the physical flexibility for the intended short-distance application.
