Quiktron 560-145-010 Cat5e Patch Cable 10 Ft Non-booted

Product Description

The QUIKTRON 560-145-010 is a 10-foot Category 5e (Cat5e) patch cable designed for structured network wiring installations. This non-booted cable provides a standard RJ45 connection without a strain-relief boot, making it easier to insert and remove in dense patch panel environments. Finished in purple for straightforward cable identification and color-coded organization, it carries CM (Communications Multipurpose) jacket rating for in-wall and plenum-adjacent horizontal runs. Network technicians and low-voltage installers use this cable for data drops, patch panel terminations, and switch-to-device connections.

This cable is suited for commercial and residential structured cabling environments where Cat5e performance is required. Common applications include connecting workstations to wall jacks, patching ports on network switches and routers, and organizing rack-mounted patch panels. The non-booted configuration is especially practical in high-density patch panel setups where booted connectors would make adjacent port access difficult. The CM jacket rating meets standard requirements for general-purpose indoor horizontal cable runs.

Key Features

• Category 5e performance for standard 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet applications
• Non-booted RJ45 connectors for easier handling in dense patch environments
• Purple jacket for quick visual identification and color-coded cable management
• CM (Communications Multipurpose) jacket rating for general indoor use
• 10-foot length suits typical patch panel and equipment rack runs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat5e patch cable compatible with RJ45-equipped network switches, routers, patch panels, and wall jacks in residential and commercial structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage network technicians and structured cabling installers handle Cat5e patch cable terminations. Installations should comply with ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards for channel performance. Avoid sharp bends or tight bundling that could exceed the minimum bend radius and degrade signal quality. No special tools are required for patch cable deployment, though cable management hardware is recommended for organized rack or panel installations.
