Tripp Lite N201-006-GN Cat 6 network ethernet cable 6 ft green

Cat 6 patch cable for wired networks

This six-foot Category 6 patch cable connects two RJ-45 network ports with stranded copper conductors. It is built for home, office or lab links where a short, flexible run is required. The green jacket helps identify the cable in a crowded patch panel or desk setup. Both ends carry moulded, snagless boots that protect the latch during repeated insertion.

Snagless boot design eases routing

The moulded boot covers the RJ-45 latch so it cannot catch on neighbouring cables or panel edges when pulled through trunking. Stranded conductors keep the cable pliable for tight bends behind racks or under desks. Installers should avoid kinking the jacket or exceeding the minimum bend radius, as sharp folds can degrade Category 6 performance. No tools are needed beyond a simple push until the latch clicks.

Six-foot reach suits adjacent equipment

At six feet the cable comfortably links a desktop, switch or wall jack to a nearby router or patch panel without excess slack. Longer runs across rooms or between cabinets will require a different length. The Category 6 rating supports gigabit speeds over this distance, but the cable does not carry power or fibre signals. Buyers needing PoE, outdoor grade or ten-gigabit certified links should select a different product.
