Ortronics 566-120-025 Cat6 Patch Cable 25 Ft Green

Product Description

The ORTRONICS 566-120-025 is a Cat6 patch cable designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. Measuring 25 feet in length and finished in green, this non-booted cable provides a straightforward, snag-free connection between network switches, patch panels, and end devices. Cat6 cabling supports Gigabit Ethernet and 10-Gigabit Ethernet over shorter runs, making it a standard choice for data center, office, and telecom room applications. The non-booted RJ45 connector design allows for easier insertion and removal in dense patch environments where space and access are limited.

This patch cable is suited for use in commercial office cabling, server rooms, data closets, and structured wiring systems where Cat6 performance is specified. It is commonly installed by low-voltage cabling technicians, IT infrastructure installers, and network contractors. The green jacket provides a visual identification convention often used to distinguish a specific network segment, VLAN, or device type within a patching field.

Key Features

• Cat6 rated for Gigabit and 10-Gigabit Ethernet performance
• 25-foot length suits cross-room and patch-field-to-device runs
• Green jacket for visual network segment identification
• Non-booted RJ45 connectors for easier access in dense patch panels
• CM (communications) cable rating appropriate for in-building horizontal runs
• Sold as a single unit (EA)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style Cat6 patch cable compatible with standard RJ45 ports on network switches, routers, patch panels, and wall jacks meeting TIA-568 Cat6 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by low-voltage technicians or network cabling contractors in accordance with TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Avoid sharp bends and do not exceed the minimum bend radius during routing, as excessive bending can degrade Cat6 signal performance. Keep patch cable runs separate from AC power wiring to reduce electromagnetic interference. Verify that all connected equipment and patch panel ports are rated for Cat6 to maintain full channel performance.
