FAQ
What is the cable length and category rating of the Tripp Lite N201-S01-BL?
The Tripp Lite N201-S01-BL is a 1-foot (0.30 meter) Category 6e patch cable. It meets Cat6e specifications, supporting Gigabit Ethernet data transfer rates up to 1 Gbps over its short length, making it ideal for tight spaces within network racks and between adjacent devices.
What type of connectors does this patch cable have?
This cable features RJ45 male connectors on both ends, configured in a male-to-male (M/M) layout. The connectors include snagless boots that protect the latch from catching on other cables or equipment, along with molded strain relief to reinforce the connection points and prevent pull-out during frequent use.
Is this cable shielded or unshielded?
The Tripp Lite N201-S01-BL is an unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable. It does not include additional shielding layers, which is typical for patch cables in environments without high electromagnetic interference. The UTP construction with 28 AWG stranded copper maintains signal integrity for Gigabit Ethernet applications.
What is the jacket rating and material of this cable?
The cable has a CM-rated jacket made of Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC). CM (Communications Multipurpose) rating indicates flame-retardant properties suitable for commercial installations, providing safety in vertical riser and general-purpose networking applications without requiring plenum-rated materials.
What devices are compatible with this patch cable?
