Wirepath WP-PC-C6TR-5-WHT Cat6 Patch Cable 5 Feet

Product Description

The WIREPATH WP-PC-C6TR-5-WHT is a Category 6 Ethernet patch cable in a 5-foot length with a white jacket. It is designed to connect network devices such as switches, routers, patch panels, and workstations within structured cabling systems. Cat6 cabling supports data transmission up to 1 Gigabit per second at 100 meters and up to 10 Gigabit per second at shorter distances. The white jacket finish makes it easy to identify in high-density rack installations or clean-run structured wiring environments. Network technicians and low-voltage installers are the primary trades that deploy this cable in residential and commercial applications.

This patch cable is suited for use in structured wiring closets, server rooms, home distribution panels, and desktop workstation drops. It is commonly installed between a patch panel and a network switch, or between a wall jack and an end device. The 5-foot length is well matched to short horizontal runs within a rack or cabinet, minimizing cable clutter while maintaining proper bend radius and strain relief at the connectors.

Key Features

• Category 6 rated for Gigabit and 10-Gigabit Ethernet at short distances
• 5-foot length suited for rack-to-rack and panel-to-switch connections
• White jacket for easy visual identification in multi-cable environments
• Factory-terminated connectors for consistent performance and quick installation
• Sold individually for flexible quantity purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style Cat6 patch cable compatible with standard RJ45 Cat6 and Cat5e keystone jacks, patch panels, and network switches using 8P8C modular ports.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage technicians and network installers typically deploy Cat6 patch cables as the final connection in a structured cabling run. No tools are required for installation beyond ensuring the RJ45 connector seats and latches fully into the port. Avoid sharp bends at the connector boot to maintain minimum bend radius and prevent signal degradation. Installation in commercial environments should comply with applicable ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards.
