Tripp Lite N201-SR1-BL Cat6 Slim Right-Angle Patch Cable Blue 1 ft

Cat6 Slim Right-Angle Patch Cable

The Tripp Lite N201-SR1-BL is a Category 6 UTP patch cable built for Gigabit Ethernet connections. It uses 28 AWG stranded copper conductors and measures one foot in length with a blue PVC jacket. The cable is over 35% slimmer than standard Cat6 cables, improving airflow and routing in high-density racks. Right-angle RJ45 male connectors on both ends save space in tight patch panels.

Verify Port Clearance and Cable Length

Confirm that your switch or patch panel ports accept right-angle RJ45 plugs without blocking adjacent ports. Ensure a one-foot reach is sufficient for the intended device spacing inside the rack. The slim 28 AWG construction is more flexible than thicker cables but offers less mechanical protection in high-traffic areas. Check that Cat6 Gigabit performance matches your network speed requirements.

Suits Dense Rack Installations, Not Long Runs

This cable suits administrators wiring servers, routers, switches or modems in crowded cabinets where airflow and space are limited. The snagless boots protect release tabs during frequent changes. It is not suited for runs longer than one foot, for outdoor or plenum-rated installations, or for environments requiring shielded cabling. Buyers needing extended lengths or different jackets should look at other options.
