Quiktron 570-145-001 Cat5e Snagless Patch Cable Purple

Product Description

The QUIKTRON 570-145-001 is a snagless Cat5e patch cable designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. The snagless boot protects the RJ45 latch during installation and routing, reducing connector damage in high-density patch panel setups. Rated for Category 5e performance, this cable supports standard Ethernet data transmission applications. It ships as a single unit and is identifiable by its purple jacket, which aids in visual cable management and circuit identification in crowded enclosures or patch bays.

This patch cable is suited for low-voltage network technicians, IT contractors, and electricians working on structured wiring projects. Typical applications include connecting switches to patch panels, workstation drops, and short equipment rack jumpers. The purple color coding is commonly used in network environments to designate specific circuit types or VLAN segments, making it a practical choice for organized, color-coded cable plant installations.

Key Features

• Snagless boot design protects RJ45 latch during pulls and in congested cable environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat5e patch cable compatible with RJ45 keystone jacks, patch panels, and network switches or routers equipped with 8P8C ports.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by low-voltage technicians or network cabling professionals. No tools are required for termination as this cable ships with molded RJ45 connectors on both ends. Ensure patch panel and switch ports are free of debris before seating connectors. Follow TIA-568 structured cabling standards for cable plant documentation and color-code schemes.
