Tripp Lite N201-005-WH 5 ft Cat6 network ethernet cable

SKU CH-HFTP-N8HJK MPN N201-005-WH

A 5 ft Cat6 patch cable with snagless RJ45 connectors, rated to 550 MHz and UL verified to EIA/TIA 568-B-2.1 standards

  • TypeConsumer Electronics
  • Cat6
  • Connector ARJ45
  • Connector BRJ45
  • Length5 ft.
  • ColorWhite
  • Cat 6 rating supports gigabit speeds up to 550 MHz
  • Snagless molded boots protect connectors during installation and removal
  • Staggered-pin plug design minimises near-end crosstalk for stable signals
  • Backward compatible with Cat 5e and Cat 5 networks
  • White 5 ft length suits short patch connections in racks or desks

Ready for gigabit networks

This 5 ft Cat6 patch cable carries data, voice and video at up to 550 MHz. It meets EIA/TIA 568-B.2-1 draft 9 standards and works with Cat5e and Cat5 installations as well. The white jacket makes it easy to identify in a busy rack or desk run.

Snagless molded connectors

Each end uses an RJ45 male plug with a staggered-pin design that keeps near-end crosstalk low. The molded boot prevents the latch from catching on adjacent cables during moves or routine maintenance. High-quality copper conductors maintain signal integrity across the full length.

Replaces older Cat5 or damaged Cat5e leads

The step up is worthwhile when you need certified 550 MHz bandwidth for gigabit Ethernet or PoE devices. It is not for installers who require bulk reel cable, outdoor-rated jackets or shielded constructions for high-interference environments.

Questions about this item

What Cat 6 standard does this cable meet, and what frequency is it verified for?

It meets EIA/TIA Cat 6 TIA/EIA-568-B-2.1 draft 9 standards and is UL verified for stable performance up to 550 MHz.

What connectors and physical features does this 5 ft cable have for mounting?

It has RJ-45 male connectors on both ends with snagless molded boots in white.

How is this patch cable installed, and what common mistake should be avoided?

Plug each RJ-45 end into the network ports until the tabs click; the snagless boot prevents the tab from catching, so do not force the connector past the click.
