*To designate color, add suffix WH (White),
BU (Blue), IG (International Gray),
YL ( Yellow), BL (Black), GR (Green), OR
(Orange), RD (Red), or VL (Violet). For additional
cable colors, contact customer service.
**To designate color, add suffix IW (Off White),
EI (Electric Ivory), IG (International Gray),
WH (White), BL (Black), OR (Orange),
RD (Red), BU (Blue), GR (Green),
YL (Yellow), or VL (Violet).
***For lengths 1 to 20 feet (increments of one
foot) and 25, 30, 35, 40 feet, change the length
designation in part number to the desired
length. For standard cable colors other than
Off White, add suffix BL (Black), BU (Blue),
GR (Green), RD (Red), YL (Yellow),
OR (Orange), or VL (Violet) before Y at the
end of the part number. For example, the part
number for a blue, 15-foot patch cord
is UTPCH15BUY.
^For lengths 1 to 10 meters (increments of one
meter) and 0.5, 1.5, 2.5, 15, 20 meters, change
the length designation in the part number to
the desired length. For standard cable colors
other than Off White, add suffix BL (Black),
BU (Blue), RD (Red), YL (Yellow), GR (Green),
OR (Orange), or VL (Violet) after the M in the
part number. For example, the part number for
a blue, 5-meter patch cord is UTPCH5MBUY.
