Tripp Lite N201-014-YW Cat6 Patch Cable 14 Inches Yellow

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE N201-014-YW is a Cat6 molded patch cable designed for structured network cabling applications in commercial and residential installations. At 14 inches in length, it provides a short, clean run suitable for patch panel connections, switch ports, and rack-mounted equipment. The molded boot construction protects the RJ45 termination points from stress and pull-out damage. The yellow jacket aids in visual cable identification, which is useful in dense patch environments where color-coding by VLAN, port type, or zone is standard practice. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors are the primary installers of this cable type.

This cable is suited for use in telecommunications rooms, server racks, network closets, and equipment bays where short Cat6 jumper runs are needed. The 14-inch length makes it a practical choice for adjacent port connections or top-of-rack switch patching. It is sold as a single cable unit and is appropriate for both new installations and maintenance replacements in Cat6 and backward-compatible Cat5e environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by low-voltage network technicians or structured cabling contractors. Before replacing an active patch cable, note the port assignment and any labeling to preserve network documentation. Ensure RJ45 connectors seat fully and the locking tab engages before applying any tension. Follow TIA-568 standards for Cat6 patch cable deployment in commercial environments.
