Leviton Debuts New Patch Cord Options to Reduce Jobsite Waste

Bothell, Washington– Leviton is now offering its Cat 6A High Flex Patch Cords in a convenient and sustainable GREENPACK bulk pack, featuring new Sustainably Smart Packaging. The new GREENPACK packaging option reduces installation time and cost, while also eliminating single-use plastic jobsite waste.

"We introduced GREENPACK Bulk Packs for copper jacks more than 10 years ago," said Kirk Krahn, senior product manager at Leviton Network Solutions. "And we're excited to expand our GREENPACK bulk packs to include copper patch cords. Combined with Sustainably Smart Packaging, this is the latest reinforcement of our commitment to simplifying jobsite activities for contractors and protecting the environment by reducing single-use plastics and minimizing overall waste."

Key benefits of the new Cat 6A High Flex Patch Cord GREENPACK Sustainably Smart Packaging include:

• Reducing 30,000 pounds of plastic per year in jobsite waste with fully recyclable cartons, bulk packs and no single-use plastics
• Environmentally responsible box materials are 100 percent kraft paper printed with eco-friendly, soy-based inks and minimal ink coverage
• Packaging is designed for smarter installation with perforated windows for easy product identification, hand holes for accessible transit and information entry fields on the box
• GREENPACK bulk packs save an estimated 75 minutes of installation time per 1,000 cords

With a new compact plug and boot, Leviton Cat 6A High Flex patch cords were launched in June 2021. Their increased flexibility eases installation and maintenance, and require less space for bend radius, making them an ideal solution for smart building applications, WAP connectivity and other IoT deployments. With a dual rating, they are designed for Low Smoke Zero Halogen and CM applications in all world regions. They are designed to be universal, allowing the same cord to work in shielded and UTP channels.

Cat 6A High Flex Patch Cord GREENPACKS are available in the USA, Canada and Latin America. For more information on this and other GREENPACK Bulk Pack options, visit leviton.com/greenpack.
