Quiktron 576-100-6IN CAT6 Patch Cable 6 Inches Gray

Product Description

The QUIKTRON 576-100-6IN is a short-run CAT6 patch cable designed for structured cabling installations, equipment rack connections, and network closet applications. Measuring 6 inches in length, this cable is built with a snagless boot that protects the RJ45 locking tab during installation and removal, reducing the risk of accidental disconnects or boot breakage in high-density environments. The gray jacket color aids in cable identification and organization. Network technicians and low-voltage installers use this cable to connect switches, patch panels, and network equipment over short distances.

The 576-100-6IN is suited for residential and light commercial structured wiring installations where tight routing and minimal slack are required. Its 6-inch length makes it a practical choice for connecting adjacent ports in patch panels, top-of-rack switch connections, and server room cross-connects. The CAT6 specification supports Gigabit Ethernet and standard 10/100 network applications.

Key Features

• Snagless boot protects RJ45 locking tab during repeated insertions and removals
• CAT6 rating supports Gigabit Ethernet and standard 10/100/1000 network speeds
• 6-inch length designed for short-run, high-density patching environments
• Gray jacket for easy visual identification and cable management
• CM-rated jacket suitable for in-building horizontal runs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard CAT6 patch cable for use with RJ45-equipped network switches, patch panels, routers, and other structured cabling components in residential and commercial installations.

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 insertion. Avoid sharp bends or kinking along the cable run, as excessive bend radius can degrade signal performance. Follow TIA-568 cabling standards for structured wiring installations.
