6 ft Cat6 patch cable

The Tripp Lite N201-006-BK is a six-foot Category 6 patch cable with RJ-45 male connectors on both ends. It uses stranded copper conductors and a molded snagless boot design. The cable is rated for stable performance up to 550 MHz and meets TIA/EIA-568-B-2.1 draft 9 standards.

Suited for standard Gigabit runs

This cable suits home and office networks needing reliable Cat6 links up to six feet long. It works with Cat6, Cat5e and Cat5 applications. Buyers needing longer reach or in-wall rated jacket types should look at different cable constructions.

Handles 550 MHz bandwidth headroom

The 550 MHz rating provides comfortable headroom for Gigabit Ethernet and general data, voice and video distribution. The stranded conductors keep the cable flexible for patch-panel and desktop connections. It does not support runs exceeding the six-foot length supplied.

Questions about this item

Does this cable need any extra adapters to plug into a standard RJ-45 port?

No, each end has an RJ-45 male connector that fits directly into any standard RJ-45 jack.

Will the 550 MHz Cat6 rating cause issues if I mix it with older Cat5e cables in the same run?

It is designed for Cat6, Cat5e and Cat5 applications, so it works alongside older cables without compatibility problems.

How can I confirm the cable is performing to its 550 MHz spec after installation?

A qualified cable tester that measures frequency response up to 550 MHz will verify the link meets Cat6 performance.
