Wirepath WP-PC-C6SH-1-BLK-5PK Cat6 Patch Cable 1 Ft Black

Product Description

The WIREPATH WP-PC-C6SH-1-BLK-5PK is a Category 6 patch cable packaged in a five-pack configuration, each cable measuring 1 foot in length with a black jacket. Cat6 patch cables carry structured wiring signals between network switches, patch panels, and endpoint devices, supporting bandwidth demands in both residential and light commercial low-voltage installations. The short 1-foot length makes this pack well suited for clean, tight cable management in rack-mounted environments where port-to-port runs are minimal. Licensed low-voltage technicians and structured cabling installers are the primary trades who deploy these cables during finish-out and commissioning phases.

This five-pack is designed for use in rack rooms, telecommunications closets, and AV equipment bays where multiple short patch runs are needed simultaneously. The 1-foot length minimizes slack and keeps patch panels and switches organized. Typical applications include connecting patch panel ports to switch ports in a rack, linking adjacent network devices, or providing clean home-run terminations in residential structured wiring enclosures.

Key Features

• Category 6 rated for high-bandwidth structured cabling applications
• 1-foot cable length for tight, organized rack and panel installations
• Black jacket for straightforward color-coded cable management
• Five-pack quantity reduces per-unit cost for multi-port installs
• Short length minimizes excess cable slack in enclosed rack environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-use patch cable compatible with Cat6 patch panels, network switches, and RJ45-equipped devices in structured wiring systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed low-voltage or structured cabling technicians in accordance with ANSI/TIA-568 cabling standards. Power down or place network switches in a safe state before connecting or disconnecting patch cables in live rack environments when disruption to active circuits is a concern. Avoid sharp bends below the minimum bend radius to maintain Cat6 signal integrity. Do not bundle patch cables tightly with high-voltage conductors.
