Wirepath WP-PC-CAT6-1FT-PUR Cat6 Patch Cable 1 Ft

Product Description

The WIREPATH WP-PC-CAT6-1FT-PUR is a Category 6 patch cable measuring 1 foot in length with a purple jacket. Patch cables of this type are used to terminate structured cabling runs at patch panels, switches, routers, and network interface equipment. The short 1-foot length makes it well suited for tight rack and panel installations where cable management is a priority. Licensed low-voltage technicians, network installers, and A/V integrators are the primary trades that specify and install cables in this category.

This cable is intended for use in residential and light commercial structured wiring installations. Typical applications include connecting patch panel ports to switch ports in a network rack, short equipment-to-equipment runs at a data closet, and any situation where a minimal-length Cat6 link is needed. The purple jacket color aids in color-coded cable organization schemes commonly used in multi-circuit panel builds.

Key Features

• Category 6 construction supports Gigabit Ethernet and standard 10/100 network applications
• 1-foot length minimizes slack and simplifies cable management in dense rack environments
• Purple jacket enables color-coded identification in structured wiring panels and network racks
• Sold individually, allowing precise quantity purchasing for specific port counts

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat6 patch cable compatible with RJ45-terminated Cat6 patch panels, network switches, routers, and other 8P8C-port network equipment in residential and light commercial structured wiring systems.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage installers and network technicians handle Cat6 patch cable installations. No special tools are required beyond standard cable management hardware. Cables should be routed without sharp bends or kinks that could degrade signal performance. Installations in commercial settings may be subject to local low-voltage wiring codes and TIA-568 structured cabling standards.
