Tripp Lite N201L-0P5M-BL Cat6 Patch Cable 0.5m Blue Lszh

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE N201L-0P5M-BL is a Cat6 Ethernet patch cable designed for structured cabling environments where low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) jacket material is required. Measuring 0.5 meters in length and finished in blue, this cable features a single molded construction that reinforces the RJ45 connector boot for strain relief and long-term durability. It is suited for data centers, server rooms, telecommunications closets, and any installation governed by fire safety or indoor air quality codes that mandate LSZH-rated cabling materials. Network technicians and low-voltage installers are the primary trades working with this cable.

This patch cable is used in horizontal and equipment bay runs where short-length connections are needed between patch panels, switches, routers, and network interface equipment. The 0.5-meter length is ideal for high-density rack environments where cable management is critical and excess slack must be minimized. The LSZH jacket limits toxic gas and smoke emission in the event of fire, making it appropriate for enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces such as raised-floor data centers, transit facilities, and commercial building risers.

Key Features

• Cat6 rated for Gigabit Ethernet and standard 10/100/1000BASE-T network applications
• LSZH jacket reduces smoke and halogen gas emission, meeting fire safety requirements for enclosed installations
• Single molded boot construction provides strain relief at the RJ45 connector
• Blue jacket color supports color-coded patch panel organization and port identification
• 0.5-meter length minimizes cable clutter in high-density rack and panel installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard patch cable for Cat6 structured cabling systems using RJ45 connections in enterprise and commercial network environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by low-voltage technicians or network cabling professionals. Verify that the jack and patch panel ports are rated Cat6 or higher before termination. Route cables through approved cable management hardware to prevent sharp bends that can degrade signal performance. Follow TIA-568 and applicable local fire codes when selecting and routing LSZH-jacketed cables in plenum or enclosed spaces.
