Wirepath WP-C6PC-BOX25-5-BLK Cat6 Patch Cable 5ft Black 25pk

Product Description

The WIREPATH WP-C6PC-BOX25-5-BLK is a Category 6 (Cat6) Ethernet patch cable supplied in a 25-pack, each cable measuring 5 feet in length with a black jacket. Cat6 cables support network data transmission up to 1 Gbps at 100 meters and up to 10 Gbps at shorter distances, making them a standard choice for structured wiring installations. These patch cables are used to connect network switches, patch panels, routers, access points, and end devices. The black jacket color aids in cable identification and organization in rack and wall environments. Installers and integrators keeping job-site stock will find this 25-pack count practical for residential and light commercial structured cabling projects.

These Cat6 patch cables are suited for residential and commercial network installations where reliable Gigabit Ethernet connections are required. Typical applications include connecting workstations or VoIP phones to wall jacks, terminating patch panels to network switches in equipment racks, and linking access points to structured wiring distribution points. The 5-foot length is well matched to short rack-to-device or desk-level runs where cable management and a clean finish matter.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat6 patch cable compatible with RJ-45 network ports found on switches, routers, patch panels, and network interface devices in residential and commercial structured wiring systems.

Installation Notes

Cat6 patch cable installation is typically performed by structured cabling technicians, low-voltage electricians, or network integrators. No special tools are required beyond standard cable management hardware. Ensure cables are not routed alongside high-voltage conductors without proper separation as outlined in TIA-568 and applicable local codes. Avoid sharp bends or kinking that exceed the minimum bend radius, as this can degrade cable performance.
