Wirepath WP-PC-C6SH-10-BLK Cat6 Patch Cable 10 Ft

Product Description

The WIREPATH WP-PC-C6SH-10-BLK is a Cat6 patch cable measuring 10 feet in length with a black jacket. Patch cables of this type carry structured network data signals between network switches, patch panels, routers, and end devices. Cat6 cabling supports bandwidths up to 250 MHz and is rated for Gigabit Ethernet applications. This cable ships as a single unit and is a standard pull-through installation item for low-voltage technicians working in residential, commercial, or light industrial structured wiring environments.

This patch cable is suited for horizontal runs and equipment connections inside data closets, server rooms, and structured wiring enclosures. It is appropriate for use in new construction, retrofit network builds, and AV distribution systems where Cat6 performance is specified. The black jacket color is commonly used for standard data runs where color-coded infrastructure management is in place. Low-voltage installers and IT infrastructure technicians are the primary trades working with this product.

Key Features

• Cat6 specification supports bandwidths up to 250 MHz for Gigabit Ethernet performance
• 10-foot length suits patch panel to switch connections and equipment rack jumper runs
• Black jacket allows for color-coded cable plant organization
• Single-unit packaging for flexible inventory and project use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat6 patch cable compatible with RJ45 keystone jacks, patch panels, network switches, and other 8P8C-terminated Cat6 infrastructure components.

Installation Notes

Installation of Cat6 patch cables is typically performed by licensed low-voltage technicians or qualified IT infrastructure personnel. Power down or disconnect active network ports before swapping cables in live environments to avoid data interruption. Avoid sharp bends or kinks that exceed the cable minimum bend radius, as this can degrade signal performance. Installations in commercial buildings should conform to applicable TIA-568 structured cabling standards and local low-voltage wiring codes.
