Wirepath WP-PC-CAT6-5FT-PNK Cat6 Patch Cable 5ft Pink

Product Description

The WIREPATH WP-PC-CAT6-5FT-PNK is a Cat6 Ethernet patch cable in a 5-foot length with a pink jacket. It is used to connect network devices at structured wiring panels, patch bays, switches, routers, and end-user equipment. Cat6 cabling supports Gigabit Ethernet and is backward compatible with Cat5e infrastructure. Installers in low-voltage, IT, and audio-visual trades use patch cables like this one for terminating network runs, dressing racks, and making clean, color-coded connections at distribution frames.

This patch cable is suited for residential and light commercial structured cabling installations. The 5-foot length is a common size for short runs between a patch panel and a nearby switch, or from a wall plate to a desktop device. The pink jacket supports color-coding schemes used to identify specific circuits, VLANs, or user groups in organized cabling environments. It is sold as a single unit and is ready to install out of the package.

Key Features

• Cat6 rating supports Gigabit Ethernet and high-bandwidth network applications
• 5-foot length suited for short rack-to-switch or wall-plate-to-device runs
• Pink jacket enables color-coded circuit identification in structured cabling installations
• Standard RJ45 connectors on both ends for broad device compatibility
• Sold individually for flexible quantity purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat6 patch cable compatible with RJ45 ports on switches, routers, patch panels, wall plates, and networked devices in Cat6 and Cat5e structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

This cable is installed by low-voltage or network cabling technicians and does not require tools beyond standard cable management practices. No cutting or termination is needed as connectors are factory-applied. Follow TIA-568 standards for patch cord routing and bend-radius guidelines to maintain signal integrity. Avoid sharp bends, pinching, or running alongside high-voltage conductors without proper separation.
