Tripp Lite N201-010-RD Cat6 Patch Cable 10 Feet Red

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE N201-010-RD is a Cat6 patch cable designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential environments. Measuring 10 feet in length and finished in red for easy circuit identification, this cable supports Gigabit Ethernet and standard 10/100/1000BASE-T network connections. The red jacket color is commonly used to designate specific network segments, management ports, or priority circuits in patch panel environments. Licensed low-voltage technicians and IT infrastructure installers use cables like this for connecting switches, patch panels, routers, and end devices in data closets and server rooms.

This patch cable is suited for horizontal and equipment bay runs where a 10-foot reach is appropriate. It is commonly installed in telecommunications rooms, data centers, office wiring closets, and network equipment racks. The red color coding helps technicians quickly trace and manage specific cable runs during moves, adds, and changes without disrupting adjacent connections.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat6 patch cable compatible with RJ45 ports on switches, routers, patch panels, and network interface cards meeting TIA-568 Cat6 specifications.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage technicians and network installers typically handle Cat6 patch cable termination and routing. Cables should be routed without sharp bends or kinks that can degrade signal performance. Follow TIA-568 standards for bend radius and cable management in patch panels and equipment racks. Avoid bundling patch cables tightly with power cables to minimize potential interference.
