Optical Cable Corp. PCSIX06B07 Cat6 Patch Cable 6 Feet

Product Description

The OPTICAL CABLE CORP. PCSIX06B07 is a Cat6 patch cable with a white jacket and booted RJ45 connectors, designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. Cat6 cabling supports Gigabit Ethernet and reduces crosstalk compared to lower-category cables, making it a standard choice for data closets, server rooms, and workstation drops. The snag-resistant boot protects the RJ45 locking tab during routing and repeated connections. Network technicians and low-voltage installers use this cable for horizontal runs, patch panel terminations, and equipment rack connections.

This patch cable is suited for use in office networks, data centers, structured cabling systems, and AV installations wherever a short 6-foot horizontal or equipment-side connection is needed. It fits standard 8P8C RJ45 jacks and ports found on switches, routers, patch panels, and network interface cards. The 6-foot length works well for rack-mounted equipment connections and desktop drops within close proximity of a wall port or patch panel.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage technicians and network installers typically handle Cat6 patch cable installations. No special tools are required beyond standard cable management hardware. Follow TIA-568 standards for structured cabling when routing patch cables in commercial environments. Avoid sharp bends below the minimum bend radius and do not bundle excessively with power cables to prevent interference.
