Quiktron 560-100-050 Cat5e Patch Cable Gray 50 Feet

Product Description

The QUIKTRON 560-100-050 is a Cat5e Ethernet patch cable finished in gray, measuring 50 feet in length. It ships without a boot, making it well suited for environments where cables are frequently moved, re-terminated, or routed through tight conduit and panels. Cat5e construction supports gigabit network speeds and reduces crosstalk compared to standard Cat5. Licensed low-voltage technicians, IT contractors, and facilities electricians install this cable for structured wiring runs, patch panel connections, and equipment drops in commercial and light industrial settings.

This patch cable fits typical horizontal and vertical cable management applications where a longer run is needed between a patch panel and an active network device, or between two network jacks. The no-boot design keeps the profile slim and prevents snag points in densely packed enclosures or rack-mounted panels. It is appropriate for both new installations and retrofit work where existing cable lengths fall short.

Key Features

• Cat5e specification supports gigabit Ethernet and reduced crosstalk
• 50-foot length suits longer patch bay and equipment room runs
• No-boot design allows easy routing through tight cable management and dense patch panels
• Gray jacket aids in color-coded cable organization schemes
• Sold as a single unit for flexible quantity purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cable for use with standard RJ-45 Cat5e patch panels, keystone jacks, and network switches in structured cabling installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed low-voltage technicians or qualified IT cabling contractors. Verify that the destination patch panel and network equipment both support Cat5e or higher before installation. De-energize and label any active ports before disconnecting existing cables to avoid unintended network interruption. Follow TIA-568 standards for structured cabling when planning cable routes and bend radius.
