Product Description
The OPTICAL CABLE CORP. PCSIX15B08 is a Cat6 patch cable designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. Measuring 15 feet in length and featuring an orange jacket with a matching boot, this cable delivers the bandwidth and performance characteristics required for Gigabit Ethernet and similar high-speed network connections. It is sold as a single unit and is typically installed by licensed electricians, low-voltage technicians, or IT infrastructure professionals working on data and voice cabling systems.
This patch cable is suited for horizontal and equipment-room runs connecting switches, patch panels, routers, and end devices. The 15-foot length covers typical rack-to-rack or desk-to-wall-plate distances without excess slack. The orange jacket color aids in cable identification and management in dense patch environments, making it a practical choice for data centers, server rooms, and office networks where visual organization matters.
Key Features
- Cat6 performance rating supporting Gigabit Ethernet and standard 10/100/1000BASE-T applications
- 15-foot length suitable for mid-range equipment connections without cable bundling issues
- Orange jacket for easy visual identification in multi-cable environments
- Snag-resistant boot protects the RJ45 locking tab during installation and removal
- Sold individually as a single unit for flexible ordering quantities
Compatibility
Designed as a standard Cat6 patch cable compatible with RJ45 ports on Ethernet switches, routers, patch panels, and network interface cards meeting TIA-568 Cat6 specifications.
Installation Notes
Low-voltage technicians and network installers typically handle Cat6 patch cable deployment. No tools are required for basic patch connections, though cable management hardware such as lashers or hook-and-loop ties should be used to maintain bend radius and reduce strain on connectors. Follow TIA-568 guidelines for maximum segment length and connector termination standards. Avoid sharp bends or cinching ties that exceed the cable minimum bend radius, as this can degrade signal performance.
