Short patch cable for tight connections

This six-inch Cat 5E UTP patch cable uses RJ45 connectors on both ends. The snagless boots protect the release tabs during repeated insertion and removal. Yellow jacket colour helps identify the link in dense patch panels. Stranded conductors keep the cable flexible for cramped routing.

Installers needing ultra-short runs

Technicians who connect faceplate ports to nearby switches or stack equipment in shallow racks will appreciate the minimal length. Builders who require longer horizontal runs or shielded cable for noisy environments should choose a different cable.

Length fixed at six inches

The 6 in length is the defining specification; it determines whether the cable reaches between two specific ports without excess slack. Verify the exact distance between your devices before ordering.

Questions about this item

Does the 6 in Cat 5E cable add noticeable heat or power draw when left connected all day?

No, a passive copper patch cord draws no power and generates no measurable heat during continuous use.

What devices must I already have to use this RJ45 patch cable?

You need two pieces of equipment with standard RJ45 ports — such as a router, switch, PC or NAS — to plug each end into.

Will the snagless boots on this Cat 5E cable fit tightly spaced ports on my older switch?

The snagless moulded boots are sized for standard RJ45 jacks and clear adjacent ports on legacy switches without interference.
