Tripp Lite N201-050-GY 50ft Cat6 Snagless Patch Cable Gray

50 ft Cat6 Patch Cable

This 50-foot Category 6 patch cable uses high-quality copper conductors and a staggered-pin plug design to minimise near-end crosstalk. It is rated for stable performance up to 550 MHz and carries RJ45 male connectors on both ends. The snagless molded boots protect the locking tabs from damage during installation. The grey jacket suits standard indoor networking runs.

Home and office network links

The cable suits anyone extending a wired connection between a router, switch, patch panel or device where a 50 ft reach is required. It supports Category 6, Category 5e and Category 5 applications, so it works with existing Gigabit Ethernet equipment. Installers who need plenum-rated or outdoor-rated jacketing should look at a different cable type. Buyers needing a shorter or longer pre-terminated length will need another part.

550 MHz bandwidth rating

The 550 MHz rating is the single specification that determines whether this cable meets the performance needs of a given installation. If the network infrastructure demands Category 6a or higher frequencies, this cable will not satisfy that requirement. For standard Gigabit Ethernet and 550 MHz Category 6 channels, the rating confirms suitability.
