Quiktron 566-130-001 CAT6 Patch Cable 1 Foot Red

Product Description

The QUIKTRON 566-130-001 is a 1-foot CAT6 unshielded patch cable finished in red with no boot on the connectors. It is designed for structured cabling installations where short, direct connections between network equipment are required. This cable transmits data at CAT6 performance standards, supporting high-speed Ethernet applications in telecommunications rooms, server racks, and data distribution points. Network installers and low-voltage technicians use this cable to establish clean, color-coded patch connections at panels and switches.

This patch cable suits residential and commercial network installations where space between patch panels, switches, and other active equipment is minimal. The 1-foot length keeps cable management tight inside racks and enclosures. The red jacket allows technicians to apply consistent color-coding schemes for easy circuit identification. The no-boot design is well suited for high-density panels where standard booted connectors are difficult to seat and release.

Key Features

• CAT6 performance rating supports Gigabit Ethernet and high-bandwidth network applications
• 1-foot length ideal for short rack-to-rack or panel-to-switch connections
• Red jacket enables color-coded cable management for fast circuit identification
• No-boot connector design simplifies installation and removal in high-density patch environments
• Sold individually, allowing technicians to order exact quantities needed

Compatibility

Designed as a standard CAT6 patch cable compatible with CAT6 and CAT6e patch panels, keystone jacks, and network switches using standard RJ45 ports.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by low-voltage technicians and network cabling professionals. Ensure patch panel ports and switch ports are free of debris before seating the connectors. Follow TIA-568 structured cabling standards for proper patch field organization. Avoid sharp bends or pinching the cable, as this can degrade signal performance.
