Tripp Lite N201-007-YW Cat6 Patch Cable 7 Feet Yellow

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE N201-007-YW is a Cat6 snagless patch cable designed for structured network installations in commercial and residential environments. At 7 feet in length and finished in high-visibility yellow, this cable supports fast Ethernet and Gigabit network connections between switches, patch panels, routers, and end-user devices. The snagless boot design protects the RJ45 locking tab during routing and removal, reducing connector failures in high-density cable environments. Network technicians, low-voltage installers, and IT professionals use this cable in rack rooms, server closets, and horizontal runs where a short, color-coded patch is required.

This cable is suited for Cat6-rated patch panel ports, wall jacks, and network switch ports in standard 568A and 568B wired installations. The yellow jacket provides quick visual identification in multi-cable environments, which is useful in data centers, telecom rooms, and structured wiring closets where color-coding by function or zone is standard practice. It is sold individually as a single cable.

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or field-supply patch cable for Cat6 and Cat5e-compatible RJ45 patch panels, network switches, and wall jacks in standard structured cabling installations.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage network technicians and IT installers typically handle Cat6 patch cable termination and routing. Route cables away from high-voltage conduit and power sources per NEC Article 800 guidelines for communications wiring. Avoid sharp bends that exceed the cable minimum bend radius, as this can degrade signal performance. No tools are required for patch cable installation into RJ45 ports.
