Product Description
The TRIPP LITE N201-005-GN is a Cat6 Ethernet patch cable designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. This male-to-male cable ships in green jacket color for easy visual identification during cable management and runs. Cat6 cabling supports data transfer speeds up to 1 Gbps at 100 MHz and is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 infrastructure. At 5 feet in length, this cable is sized for short equipment-to-patch-panel or switch-to-device runs in server rooms, telecom closets, and workstation deployments. Network technicians and low-voltage installers use this cable type for structured cabling projects governed by TIA-568 standards.
This patch cable is suited for use in both residential and light commercial network installations. Typical applications include connecting switches to patch panels, wall jacks to workstations, and network equipment in rack or cabinet environments. The green jacket color aids in color-coded cable management schemes commonly used by network and IT infrastructure teams. At 5 feet, this cable is appropriate for short horizontal runs within equipment racks or between adjacent devices.
Key Features
- Cat6 rated for data speeds up to 1 Gbps at 100 MHz
- Male to male RJ-45 connectors on both ends
- Green jacket for visual identification in color-coded cabling schemes
- 5-foot length suited for short rack or equipment-room runs
- Backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 installations
Compatibility
Designed as a standard Cat6 patch cable for use with RJ-45 ports on switches, routers, patch panels, and network interface equipment in TIA-568-compliant structured cabling systems.
Installation Notes
Low-voltage technicians and network installers should follow TIA-568 standards when deploying Cat6 patch cables in structured cabling environments. Avoid sharp bends and do not exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable jacket during routing. Keep patch cables away from high-voltage electrical runs to reduce interference. Inspect RJ-45 connectors for full seating before securing cable management hardware.
