Cable Leader 14ft Cat6 Non-Booted Patch Cable

The Cable Leader 14ft Cat6 Non-Booted Ethernet Cable is a blue LAN patch cable built to the Cat6 standard and tested to 550MHz. It uses 24AWG bare copper conductors in four twisted pairs with 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts. The cable supports Gigabit Ethernet and 10G over short runs while remaining backward compatible with Cat5e installations. It is RoHS compliant and carries UL, cUL and ETL listings.

Suited For High-Density Panels Not For Booted

This cable suits installers working with tightly packed patch panels, keystone jacks or data centre racks where the non-booted plug eases insertion and improves airflow. It also fits PoE devices, routers, switches and PCs needing a drop-in Cat6 upgrade. Buyers who require a protective boot over the connector for strain relief or frequent re-patching should consider a different cable style.

Fits Structured Cabling Runs Frees Panel Space

The 14-foot length connects endpoints across server rooms, offices or structured cabling layouts without excess slack. Its non-booted design lets the RJ45 plugs seat side-by-side in high-density panels, freeing valuable port space and simplifying cable management. The bare copper construction and gold-plated contacts maintain signal integrity across the link while the Cat6 rating supports current and near-future bandwidth needs.

Questions about this item

What RJ45 ports must my switch or patch panel provide for this 14ft Cat6 cable to connect?

Any standard 8P8C RJ45 jack works; the non-booted plug seats in high-density patch panels and keystone jacks without clearance issues.

Will the 550MHz-tested Cat6 cable run reliably on my existing Cat5e patch panel and keystone jacks?

Yes, it is fully backward compatible with Cat5e infrastructure for a drop-in upgrade while still supporting Gigabit Ethernet.

How can I confirm the 24AWG bare copper cable with 50-micron gold contacts is performing at Cat6 550MHz after installation?

Run a cable certifier or qualification tester; it should report Cat6 link performance at up to 550MHz with low return loss and crosstalk.
