Comprehensive Connectivity CAT6-14BLK Cat6 Patch Cable 550 Mhz

Product Description

The Comprehensive Connectivity Co. CAT6-14BLK is a Category 6 snagless patch cable rated to 550 MHz, designed for structured cabling and network installations. It provides a reliable copper interconnect between network switches, patch panels, routers, and end devices. The snagless boot protects the RJ45 locking tab during installation and cable management, reducing the risk of accidental disconnection. Rated at 550 MHz, it supports Gigabit Ethernet and high-bandwidth data transmission in both commercial and residential network environments. Licensed electricians, low-voltage technicians, and IT cabling contractors are the typical installers of this cable type.

This patch cable suits horizontal and equipment-bay runs in structured wiring closets, server rooms, office environments, and residential low-voltage installations. It is well-suited for connecting patch panel ports to switch ports, workstation drops to wall jacks, or any short-run Cat6 network segment. The black jacket color is commonly used for standard data runs, aiding in color-coded cable identification schemes used in professional installations.

Key Features

• Category 6 construction rated to 550 MHz for Gigabit Ethernet support
• Snagless boot design protects RJ45 locking tab from damage during routing and dressing
• Black jacket for easy visual identification in color-coded wiring schemes
• Sold as a single cable unit (each)

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat6 patch cable compatible with RJ45 port interfaces on network switches, routers, patch panels, and wall jacks conforming to TIA-568 Cat6 wiring standards.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage technicians and network cabling contractors typically install this cable type. No high-voltage power-down is required, but patch panel and switch ports should be inactive during initial connection to prevent link errors. Route cables with appropriate bend radius to avoid signal degradation; avoid sharp kinks or heavy bundling that compresses the cable geometry. Follow TIA-568 and local low-voltage wiring codes for structured cabling installations.
