Six-inch Cat6 patch cable for dense racks

The Tripp Lite N201-06N-YW is a 6 in yellow Cat6 UTP patch cable built for high-density data centres. Its short length keeps cable management tidy when linking servers, switches, routers and modems in tightly packed cabinets. Snagless RJ45 connectors protect locking tabs during frequent changes. The cable is rated for 550 MHz bandwidth and 1 Gbps throughput.

Capacity headroom at 550 MHz and 1 Gbps

The 24 AWG stranded conductors support 1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet plus 10/100Base-T, 100 Mbps TPDDI, 155 Mbps ATM, ISDN, voice and Token Ring Type 3 applications. Gold-plated contacts minimise data loss across these standards. The design reduces impedance and structural return loss compared to basic 100 MHz wire. It does not serve runs that need longer reach or higher category performance.

Snagless boots and strain relief change daily

Moulded short-body plugs with snagless boots stop tabs from catching or breaking when cables are pulled through crowded panels. Integral strain relief adds flexibility at the connector junction, reducing stress on the termination. A rugged PVC jacket withstands repeated routing in dense environments. No software or additional accessories are included with this cable.

Questions about this item

Will the 6 in Cat6 patch cable reach between stacked switches in my existing rack?

At six inches the N201-06N-YW is intended for very short links such as adjacent patch-panel ports or side-by-side switches; measure your rack spacing before relying on it for longer runs.

How can I verify the 550 MHz link is performing after I plug it in?

Check the switch port LEDs for a solid 1 Gbps indicator and run a cable certifier or a simple throughput test to confirm gigabit speeds with low error counts.

Does the yellow cable come with both RJ45 plugs attached and anything else in the package?

The cable ships as a single 6 in UTP patch cord with an RJ45 male connector on each end; no additional adapters, ties or mounting hardware are included.
