Quiktron 566-100-050 CAT6 Patch Cable Gray 50 Feet

Product Description

The QUIKTRON 566-100-050 is a CAT6 Ethernet patch cable finished in gray and cut to a 50-foot length. It ships without a boot — the molded protective sleeve over the RJ45 connector — making it a practical choice when routing through tight conduit or patch panels where a boot can snag or restrict bend radius. CAT6 cabling supports data transmission up to 1 Gbps at 100 meters and is backward compatible with CAT5e infrastructure. This cable is sold as a single unit and is well suited for structured cabling installers, network technicians, and data-center tradespeople.

The 566-100-050 is used in commercial and light industrial network installations where a longer horizontal run is needed between a patch panel and an active switch, router, or network device. The 50-foot length covers spans that shorter patch cables cannot reach without a coupler or additional segment. The no-boot design is especially useful in high-density patch panels where space between ports is limited and individual boots create congestion.

Key Features

• CAT6-rated construction supporting Gigabit Ethernet applications
• 50-foot length for longer cross-connect and equipment runs
• No-boot RJ45 connectors reduce bulk in dense patch-panel environments
• Gray jacket for standard color-coding in structured cabling systems
• Sold as a single cable — one unit per order

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation patch cable for CAT6 and CAT6e structured cabling systems using standard RJ45 patch panels, keystone jacks, and network switches.

Installation Notes

CAT6 patch cables are installed by low-voltage cabling technicians and network tradespeople. Route cables away from high-voltage conduit and power sources to prevent electromagnetic interference, in accordance with TIA-568 and applicable local codes. Do not kink, crush, or exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable jacket. Inspect RJ45 connectors for full seating and locking tab engagement before finalizing the installation.
