Leviton Telcom 6D460-25G Cat 6 Patch Cord 25 Feet

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM 6D460-25G is a Category 6 (Cat 6) Ethernet patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. At 25 feet in length and finished in green, this patch cord provides a reliable copper-conductor connection between network switches, patch panels, routers, and end devices. Cat 6 cabling supports Gigabit Ethernet and is backward compatible with Cat 5e infrastructure. Network technicians and low-voltage installers rely on patch cords like this to complete horizontal or vertical cable runs at the termination point.

This patch cord is suited for use in data closets, server rooms, office environments, and any structured cabling system that follows TIA-568 standards. The green jacket color aids in visual cable management and port identification when multiple patch cords are installed in the same panel or switch stack. It ships as a single unit and is ready to install out of the package with no field termination required.

Key Features

• Category 6 performance supports Gigabit Ethernet applications
• 25-foot length accommodates medium-distance patch panel to switch runs
• Green jacket color supports color-coded cable management practices
• Pre-terminated with RJ-45 connectors — no field crimping required
• Backward compatible with Cat 5e patch panels and keystone jacks

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard patch cord for Cat 6 and Cat 6E structured cabling systems using RJ-45 terminated horizontal cabling.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage technicians and network installers typically deploy patch cords as the final connection segment between a patch panel port and an active network switch or between a wall jack and an end device. No special tools are required for installation. Follow TIA-568 structured cabling standards and local low-voltage codes when organizing and securing patch cords in telecommunications rooms or equipment racks. Avoid sharp bends and do not exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable to maintain signal integrity.
