Icc ICPCSH05BL Cat 6 Slim Patch Cord

Product Description

The ICC ICPCSH05BL is a Cat 6 slim patch cord with a clear boot, designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. It delivers reliable Gigabit Ethernet performance in tight spaces where standard-diameter patch cords are impractical. The slim form factor reduces cable bulk in high-density patch panels and switch enclosures, improving airflow and simplifying cable management. Network technicians and low-voltage installers typically deploy this cord to terminate structured cabling runs at patch panels, wall jacks, or network switches.

This patch cord is suited for data center rack cabling, server room patch panels, and commercial office network closets where port density is high and cable organization is a priority. The Cat 6 rating supports Gigabit Ethernet and is backward compatible with Cat 5e infrastructure. The clear boot allows visual identification of the connector and cable routing at a glance, which is useful during moves, adds, and changes in active network environments.

Key Features

• Slim design reduces bundle diameter in high-density patch panel and switch installations
• Cat 6 performance rating supports Gigabit Ethernet applications
• Clear boot provides visual access to connector seating and cable identification
• Sold individually, one cord per unit

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat 6 patch cord replacement for use with RJ45 patch panels, wall jacks, and network switches in structured cabling systems built to TIA-568 Cat 6 specifications.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage network technicians install this cord without special tools beyond standard cable management practices. Ensure the RJ45 plug is fully seated and the locking tab clicks into place before routing. Do not exceed the minimum bend radius for Cat 6 cabling, and avoid bundling with high-voltage power cables to prevent signal interference in compliance with NEC guidelines for low-voltage wiring separation.
