Tripp Lite Cat6 Gigabit Snagless Molded UTP Ethernet Cable (RJ45 M/M), PoE, LSZH, Blue, 15 m (49.2 ft.)

Overview

The Tripp Lite N201L-15M-BL is a Cat6 Gigabit Ethernet cable designed to deliver reliable network connectivity over a 15-meter distance. It supports data transfer speeds up to 1 Gbps using unshielded twisted pair wiring, making it suitable for connecting devices across racks, walls, or ceilings. The cable’s Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket enhances safety by reducing toxic fumes in case of fire, which is important for environments like data centers, offices, and schools.

Key features

• Cat6 UTP construction ensures consistent Gigabit Ethernet performance for high-speed data transfer.
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) support allows the cable to deliver both data and electrical power, simplifying installation of devices like VoIP phones and wireless access points.
• Low Smoke Zero Halogen jacket minimizes hazardous smoke and fumes, improving safety in enclosed or public spaces.
• Molded RJ45 connectors with snagless boots protect the latch from damage and make it easier to pull the cable through tight spaces or cable bundles.
• Blue jacket color helps quickly identify and trace the cable among multiple runs in complex network setups.
