Lynn Electronics CAT6-01-GRB Cat6 Patch Cable 1 Ft Green

Product Description

The LYNN ELECTRONICS CAT6-01-GRB is a Category 6 Ethernet patch cable measuring 1 foot in length. It is finished in green and fitted with snag-resistant boots that protect the RJ45 locking tabs during installation and removal. Cat6 cabling supports network speeds up to 10 Gbps at shorter runs and 1 Gbps across standard horizontal runs, making it the current baseline for structured cabling installations. This cable is sold as a single unit and is suited for connecting network equipment in tight spaces where a longer cable would create excess slack.

This patch cable is used wherever a short, clean connection is needed between two network devices — patch panels to switches, switches to access points, or equipment ports in server racks and telecom closets. The green jacket is commonly used in color-coded cabling schemes to identify a specific VLAN, port group, or service type, helping technicians quickly trace connections during moves, adds, and changes. It is appropriate for both commercial and residential structured cabling work.

Key Features

• Category 6 construction supports 10 Gbps data transmission at short runs
• 1-foot length minimizes cable clutter in dense patch panel environments
• Green jacket enables color-coded port identification and cable management
• Molded snag-resistant boots protect RJ45 locking tabs from breakage
• Single-unit packaging for targeted replacement or small-quantity installs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat6 patch cable compatible with RJ45 ports on switches, routers, patch panels, and other 8P8C-equipped network equipment following TIA-568 wiring standards.

Installation Notes

Installation does not require specialty tools — seat the RJ45 connector fully into the port until the locking tab clicks. Network cabling installations in commercial settings should follow TIA-568 and local codes where applicable. Avoid sharp bends that exceed the cable minimum bend radius, as kinking a patch cable can degrade signal performance. Power to connected equipment does not need to be removed to swap a patch cable, but follow site procedures before working in live telecom closets.
