Quiktron 00494 Cat5e Snagless Patch Cable 3 Feet Pink

Product Description

The QUIKTRON 00494 is a Cat5e snagless patch cable in pink, measuring 3 feet in length. It is designed for structured wiring and network patch applications where a short, reliable Ethernet connection is needed. The snagless boot protects the RJ45 locking tab during routing and removal, reducing the risk of connector damage in dense patch panel environments. Network technicians and low-voltage installers use this cable for terminating runs at patch panels, switches, and network jacks in commercial and residential installations.

This cable is suited for horizontal patch connections in telecom closets, server rooms, and office network environments. The pink jacket color supports color-coded cable management schemes, making it easier to identify specific network segments or user groups at a glance. At 3 feet, it is intended for short runs between adjacent equipment such as a patch panel and a nearby switch or between a wall jack and a desktop device.

Key Features

• Cat5e specification supports standard Ethernet network applications
• Snagless boot design protects the RJ45 latch during installation and removal
• Pink jacket supports color-coded patch panel organization
• 3-foot length suited for short patch runs between adjacent equipment
• Sold individually as a single unit

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat5e patch cable compatible with RJ45 ports on Ethernet switches, routers, patch panels, and network jacks following TIA-568 wiring standards.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage technicians and network installers typically handle Cat5e patch cable termination and routing. No special tools are required for connecting patch cables, though cable management hardware should be in place before final patching. Follow TIA-568 structured cabling standards for patch panel organization. Avoid sharp bends or tight routing that could degrade cable performance.
