Product Identity

Tripp Lite N200-005-RD is a five-foot red patch cable built with RJ-45 male connectors on both ends. It is designed for standard Gigabit Ethernet links between switches, routers, and networked devices.

Suitability

This cable suits installers who need a short, colour-coded run for rack or desk tidiness and want moulded strain relief for durability. It is not for runs that exceed the five-foot length or for installations requiring shielded or outdoor-rated jackets.

Deciding Specification

The cable is rated to 550 MHz bandwidth, supporting Gigabit speeds over its full length. That frequency rating is the single figure that confirms whether the link will meet the required performance class.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 5 ft red cable or a different length for my desk-to-router run?

The 5 ft red patch cable reaches cleanly between devices on the same desk or rack shelf; choose a longer version only if the path requires extra slack.

What does the 550 MHz rating deliver when the cable is plugged into my gigabit switch?

At 550 MHz the cable supports full gigabit throughput with minimized near-end crosstalk, so the link runs at line speed without errors.

How do the RJ-45 connectors limit what I can plug this cable into?

Both ends use standard RJ-45 male plugs, so the cable fits any Ethernet port labelled RJ-45 on routers, switches, PCs or patch panels.
