Wirepath WP-PC-CAT6-1FT-BLU Cat6 Patch Cable 1 Ft Blue

Product Description

The WIREPATH WP-PC-CAT6-1FT-BLU is a Category 6 Ethernet patch cable measuring 1 foot in length with a blue jacket. Designed for structured cabling installations, it provides the bandwidth and performance headroom required by Cat6 standards, supporting Gigabit Ethernet and beyond. The short 1-foot length makes it well suited for tight rack, patch panel, and switch deployments where cable management and minimal slack are priorities. Low-voltage installers, network technicians, and AV integrators rely on this type of cable to terminate horizontal runs at patch panels or to make equipment-to-switch connections inside enclosures.

This patch cable is used in residential and light commercial structured wiring applications. Its compact 1-foot length is a common choice for connecting patch panel ports to nearby network switches, or for short device-to-device links inside a structured media center or network rack. It ships as a single unit and is ready to install out of the box with no field termination required.

Key Features

• Cat6 rated for Gigabit Ethernet and high-bandwidth network applications
• 1-foot length minimizes slack and simplifies cable management in tight enclosures
• Blue jacket provides easy visual identification in multi-cable installations
• Pre-terminated and ready to install with no additional tooling required
• Sold individually for flexible ordering based on exact project quantities

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use patch cable compatible with standard Cat6 and Cat6E patch panel ports, keystone jacks, and RJ45 network switch ports.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by low-voltage technicians or structured cabling installers. Ensure the destination patch panel and switch ports are Cat6 rated to maintain full category performance. Avoid sharp bends or kinks that exceed the cable minimum bend radius, as this can degrade signal performance. Follow TIA-568 standards for structured cabling installations where applicable.
