Quiktron 570-100-014 Cat5e Patch Cable 14 Inch Gray

Product Description

The QUIKTRON 570-100-014 is a snagless Category 5e patch cable rated for CM (Communications Multipurpose) applications. Measuring 14 inches in length and finished in gray, it is designed for short-run structured cabling connections between network devices, patch panels, and switches. The snagless boot protects the RJ45 locking tab during installation and removal, reducing connector damage in high-density patching environments. Licensed electricians, low-voltage technicians, and network installers use this cable for data and voice infrastructure work in commercial and residential settings.

This patch cable is suited for horizontal and equipment-room patching in structured cabling systems. Its 14-inch length makes it practical for dense patch panel installations where cable management space is limited. The CM rating qualifies it for use in general-purpose commercial and residential cable runs outside of plenum or riser spaces. It ships as a single unit and is compatible with standard RJ45 ports on switches, routers, patch panels, and network interface equipment.

Key Features

• Category 5e performance supports data transfer applications up to 100 MHz
• Snagless boot design protects the RJ45 latch during install and removal
• CM-rated jacket suitable for general-purpose commercial and residential environments
• 14-inch length designed for short patch runs and high-density panel installations
• Gray jacket color for easy visual identification and cable management

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat5e patch cable for use with RJ45-equipped network devices including patch panels, switches, routers, and wall jacks in CM-rated structured cabling installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by low-voltage technicians or network cabling professionals. No tools are required for patching; simply seat the RJ45 connectors firmly until the latch clicks. Ensure the cable is not kinked, pinched, or bent beyond its minimum bend radius during routing. Installations in commercial buildings should conform to applicable TIA-568 structured cabling standards and local codes.
