Tripp Lite N201-007-BL Cat 6 Patch Cable 7 Feet Blue

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE N201-007-BL is a Cat 6 Ethernet patch cable in a 7-foot length, finished in blue for easy circuit identification. Designed for structured cabling environments, this patch cable supports high-speed data transmission and is used to connect network switches, patch panels, routers, and end devices. Cat 6 cabling supports frequencies up to 250 MHz and is suited for Gigabit Ethernet and 10-Gigabit applications over short runs. Network technicians, IT contractors, and low-voltage installers rely on this cable type for clean, reliable horizontal and equipment-bay connections in both commercial and residential installations.

This patch cable is well suited for use in server rooms, telecom closets, office workstation drops, and light industrial data runs. The blue jacket aids in visual management of network infrastructure where multiple cable runs must be tracked and labeled quickly. It ships as a single cable unit, making it easy to order exact quantities for a given job.

Key Features

• Cat 6 rated for Gigabit and 10-Gigabit Ethernet over short distances
• 7-foot length provides reach between equipment-bay devices and wall jacks without excess slack
• Blue jacket supports color-coded cable management in structured wiring environments
• Sold as a single unit for precise quantity ordering

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cable compatible with standard RJ-45 Cat 6 keystone jacks, patch panels, and network switch ports found in typical commercial and residential structured cabling installations.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage installers and network technicians install Cat 6 patch cables without special tooling beyond standard cable management practices. Avoid sharp bends below the cable minimum bend radius, as kinking can degrade signal performance. Follow TIA-568 standards for structured cabling when routing and dressing patch cables in telecom closets or equipment racks. Do not route alongside high-voltage conductors without proper separation per applicable codes.
