Cat6 Gigabit Cable with Right-Angle Connector

The Tripp Lite N204-005-BL-DN is a 5 ft Cat6 patch cable built for Gigabit Ethernet networks. It uses a right-angle down RJ45 plug on one end and a straight RJ45 plug on the other to fit tight spaces behind panels or desks. Blue PVC jacket covers four pairs of 24AWG stranded conductors with fully moulded ends. ETL verification confirms compliance with the TIA/EIA-568-B standard for structured wiring.

Installers Needing a Downward Cable Exit

This cable suits installers who need the plug to exit downward from a wall jack or switch port without bending the cable sharply. It is not for runs that require a straight connector on both ends or an upward-angle design. Buyers who need a longer reach should select a different length. The stranded construction is intended for patch cords, not for permanent in-wall horizontal cabling.

550 MHz Bandwidth Rating for Gigabit Speed

The single specification that decides fit is the 550 MHz bandwidth rating, which supports Gigabit data rates over the 5 ft link. This frequency margin meets the Cat6 class D requirement for 1 Gbps operation. Verify that the connected ports and overall channel length stay within the standard limits for the desired throughput.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the cable is performing at the 550 MHz gigabit rating after connecting it?

Link a gigabit-rated device at each end and verify the connection negotiates at 1 Gbps in the OS network status or switch port LEDs.

What connectors and conductors come with the N204-005-BL-DN and what must I supply?

The cable includes two RJ45 plugs — one right-angle down and one straight — with 4-pair 24 AWG stranded conductors fully molded; no additional parts are required.

Which version of this Cat6 patch cable should I choose for a standard gigabit run?

The N204-005-BL-DN is a 5 ft blue Cat6 cable rated to 550 MHz with ETL verification to TIA/EIA-568-B, suitable for typical gigabit patching.
