Tripp Lite N201-050-PU Cat6 Snagless Patch Cable 50 Feet

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE N201-050-PU is a Cat6 snagless molded patch cable designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. Cat6 patch cables carry Gigabit Ethernet and other high-speed data signals between network switches, patch panels, routers, and end devices. The snagless boot design protects the RJ45 locking tab during routing and removal, reducing connector damage in dense cable environments. This cable is suited for installation by network technicians, low-voltage contractors, and IT infrastructure trades working in data centers, server rooms, and general office or facility cabling projects.

Cat6 patch cables are used to connect active network equipment to wall jacks or patch panels in horizontal cabling runs, as well as for equipment connections within network racks and telecommunications rooms. This cable is appropriate for applications requiring Cat6 performance in standard 568-compliant structured cabling systems. The purple jacket color aids in cable identification and color-coded organizational schemes commonly used in rack and panel installations.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard Cat6 patch cable for use with RJ45 ports on network switches, patch panels, routers, and network interface cards in 568-compliant structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage technicians and network cabling professionals typically install Cat6 patch cables. Power down or disconnect active ports where required by site safety procedures before repatching live equipment. Avoid sharp bends below the minimum bend radius and do not cinch cable ties so tightly that the cable jacket deforms, as both can degrade signal performance. Installations should conform to ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards.
