Quiktron 576-RD40-015 CAT6 Patch Cable 15 Ft Snagless

Product Description

The QUIKTRON 576-RD40-015 is a 15-foot CAT6 snagless patch cable built for structured wiring and network connectivity applications. Constructed with 28 AWG conductors, this cable delivers reliable Ethernet signal transmission in data, telecom, and low-voltage control wiring environments. The snagless boot design protects the RJ45 locking tab during routing and removal, reducing connector failure over repeated connect-disconnect cycles. Orange jacket color supports easy visual identification in dense patch panel installations. Licensed electricians and low-voltage technicians handling network infrastructure installs are the primary users of this cable.

This patch cable is suited for residential and light commercial structured wiring projects where CAT6 performance is required. Typical applications include connecting network switches to patch panels, linking workstations to wall jacks, and short horizontal runs between active network equipment. The 15-foot length covers standard rack-to-device distances in telecom closets and server rooms. It ships as a single unit and is ready to install out of the package with no field termination required.

Key Features

• 15-foot cable length for flexible reach in rack and desktop installations
• CAT6 rating supports Gigabit Ethernet and structured wiring standards
• 28 AWG conductor gauge for lightweight, flexible routing in tight spaces
• Snagless boot protects RJ45 locking tab during installation and removal
• Orange jacket for easy visual identification in multi-cable environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard CAT6 patch cable compatible with RJ45 ports on network switches, routers, patch panels, and wall jacks meeting CAT6 or CAT5e wiring standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by low-voltage technicians or licensed electricians working under structured cabling standards such as ANSI/TIA-568. No tools are required for connection — simply seat the RJ45 connector firmly until the locking tab clicks. Avoid sharp bends or kinks along the cable run, as exceeding the minimum bend radius can degrade signal performance. Verify patch panel and port labeling before seating connectors in high-density installations to avoid mislabeled runs.
