Quiktron 560-135-050 Cat5e Patch Cable 50 Ft No Boot

Product Description

The QUIKTRON 560-135-050 is a 50-foot Cat5e patch cable finished in black and supplied without a boot on the connector ends. Cat5e patch cables carry structured network data between switches, patch panels, routers, and end devices. This cable supports standard 100BASE-TX and Gigabit Ethernet applications and is suited for permanent equipment rooms, server racks, and open-ceiling commercial installations. The no-boot design allows insertion and removal in high-density panel environments where booted connectors can bind or snag adjacent ports. Network technicians, low-voltage installers, and IT infrastructure crews are the primary installers.

This cable is sized for runs requiring more reach than typical 7-foot or 14-foot jumpers while staying within the 328-foot channel limit defined by TIA-568 structured cabling standards. The 50-foot length is common in data closets, AV equipment rooms, and commercial office buildouts where rack-to-rack or rack-to-workstation distances exceed shorter commodity lengths. The black jacket color supports color-coded cable management schemes. It ships as a single cable unit.

Key Features

• 50-foot length suits longer rack-to-rack and rack-to-device runs
• No-boot connector ends allow easy insertion in high-density patch panels
• Cat5e rating supports 10/100/1000 Ethernet applications
• Black jacket supports color-coded cable management
• Sold as a single unit for flexible ordering

Compatibility

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

Installation Notes

Low-voltage technicians and network installers typically handle Cat5e patch cable deployment. No special tools are required beyond standard cable management hardware. Keep cable bend radius within manufacturer guidelines to avoid signal degradation, and avoid routing alongside high-voltage conductors per NEC Article 800 guidelines for communications wiring. Confirm port compatibility and locking tab clearance before seating connectors in dense panel installations.
