5 ft Cat6 Gigabit Patch Cable

The stranded conductors suit temporary or permanent patching in home and office networks. || Tripp Lite N201-005-RD

Ideal for short Gigabit runs

The cable suits anyone who needs a reliable 5 ft red Cat6 link for desktops, laptops, smart TVs, consoles or access points. Colour coding simplifies cable management in racks or behind furniture.

Questions about this item

What bandwidth does the Cat 6 rating support on this 5 ft cable?

The Cat 6 rating supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds on this 5 ft patch cable.

Will the snagless boots on the RJ45 connectors clear a dense patch panel?

The snagless molded boots protect the locking tabs and fit standard RJ45 ports on patch panels and switches.

How do I seat the RJ45 plugs without snapping the tabs on this N201-005-RD cable?

Push each RJ45 plug straight in until the tab clicks; the snagless boot shields the tab so it cannot catch or break during insertion.
