Siemon Company MC6-15-04 Cat6 Patch Cord 15 Feet

Product Description

The SIEMON COMPANY MC6-15-04 is a Category 6 copper patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. At 15 feet in length, it provides the flexibility needed to make equipment connections across patch panels, switches, routers, and other network hardware. The copper conductor construction supports full Cat6 performance, delivering the bandwidth and return loss characteristics required by current TIA/EIA-568 standards. This cord is finished in grey, making it easy to manage color-coded cabling schemes in organized data rooms and telecom closets.

This patch cord is suited for use in horizontal cabling cross-connects, equipment rooms, and structured cabling distribution frames. Network technicians, low-voltage contractors, and IT infrastructure installers typically deploy Cat6 patch cords like this one to terminate runs between active equipment and patch panel ports. The 15-foot length is a common choice for rack-to-rack or panel-to-switch connections where shorter cords fall short.

Key Features

• Category 6 copper construction meets TIA/EIA-568-C.2 performance requirements
• 15-foot length suited for mid-distance equipment connections within racks or closets
• Grey jacket supports color-coded cable management practices
• Sold as a single unit for targeted replacement or incremental infrastructure builds

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use patch cord for Cat6 and Cat6E structured cabling systems using RJ-45 terminations in commercial and residential network installations.

Installation Notes

Cat6 patch cords are installed by low-voltage technicians and network infrastructure contractors. No special tools are required for insertion, but ensure RJ-45 ports on both ends are free of debris and undamaged before seating the cord. Avoid sharp bends or kinks that can degrade signal performance; observe the minimum bend radius specified for Cat6 cabling. Installations in commercial buildings may be subject to local codes referencing TIA-568 and BICSI guidelines.
