Commscope Cat 6 0.5Mtr Patch Cord

The CommScope Category 6 (Cat 6) 0.5-Meter Patch Cord is a vital component for high-performance structured cabling systems. Primarily, it is designed to connect network switches to patch panels within data centers and telecommunication closets. Because of its short length, it effectively eliminates cable clutter and improves airflow within dense server racks.

Key Performance Features

This patch cord is engineered to exceed standard Category 6 requirements. Specifically, it supports high-speed data transmission up to 1 Gbps and operates at frequencies of 250 MHz.

• Construction: The cable features stranded copper conductors. Consequently, this provides the flexibility needed for tight bends without compromising signal integrity.

• Safety: Many CommScope models use Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jackets. Therefore, they are safer for use in confined spaces as they emit minimal smoke in the event of a fire.

• Durability: The cord includes factory-terminated RJ45 plugs with high-quality gold plating. In addition, it features a molded “snagless” boot that protects the latch from breaking during frequent moves or changes.

Technical Specifications

This cord is a core part of the SYSTIMAX or NETCONNECT portfolios.

• Compatibility: It is fully backward compatible with Cat 5e and Cat 5 standards. Thus, it integrates seamlessly into existing legacy networks.

• Efficiency: The 0.5-meter length is ideal for “cross-connect” applications. Furthermore, it reduces the signal latency that can occur with unnecessarily long cables.

• Standards: It fully complies with ANSI/TIA-568.2-D and ISO/IEC 11801 Class E standards. Ultimately, this ensures reliable performance for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications.
