Cat6 Gigabit patch cable

The Tripp Lite N201-005-YW is a Category 6 network cable built for gigabit Ethernet connections. It uses RJ45 male connectors on each end and meets Cat6 cabling standards for reduced impedance and structural return loss. The yellow jacket provides easy visual identification in crowded racks or panels.

Home and office patching, not long runs

This 5 ft length suits short connections between a computer, router, switch or patch panel in a home or small office. Installers needing longer horizontal runs, outdoor-rated jackets, or shielded cable for high-interference environments should select a different product.

Five-foot length

The cable measures exactly 5 ft from connector to connector, fixing the maximum distance between two ports. Verify that your device spacing fits within this reach before ordering.

Questions about this item

Will this 5 ft Cat6 cable work with the older Cat5e ports on my existing router and switch?

Yes, it meets Category 6 standards and is built for Cat6, Cat5e and Cat5 applications, so it will connect to those older ports without issue.

How can I confirm the N201-005-YW is delivering a gigabit link after I plug it in?

The link LEDs on both devices should illuminate at their highest speed setting, typically labelled 1 Gbps or Gigabit, indicating the cable is operating at its rated performance.

Does the yellow snagless patch cable come with anything else in the box, or do I need separate RJ45 connectors?

The cable arrives as a single 5 ft assembly with RJ45 male connectors already moulded on each end; no extra connectors or accessories are required or included.
