Overview

The Panduit SGPT (SKU: SGPT) is a specialized assembly tool designed for the precise termination of 28/30 AWG modular plugs in Category 5e and Category 6 applications. This tool ensures accurate and reliable terminations for small gauge wires, critical in telecommunications, data centers, and structured cabling installations. The SGPT is compatible with most 4-pair, 30 AWG, 100-ohm stranded, unshielded twisted pair cables with a maximum conductor insulation diameter of 0.021 inch (0.53mm) and outer jacket diameter between 0.122 inch (3.10mm) and 0.130 inch (3.30mm). Its design includes a pair manager to simplify termination and provide strain relief, ensuring consistent performance. The tool is constructed from 20% glass-filled nylon, offering durability and resistance to operational temperatures ranging from 14°F to 140°F (-15°C to 60°C). Weighing 0.28 lbs per 10 pieces (127g/10 PCS), the SGPT is compact yet robust, ideal for repetitive tasks in network infrastructure deployments. By using the SGPT, technicians can achieve high-quality terminations that meet T568A and T568B wiring schemes, ensuring compliance with ANSI/TIA and ISO Category 6/Class E performance requirements when paired with compliant cable.
