Paige Electric 71065403BK 3' CAT 6 Patch Cable Molded Black
Overview
The 71065403BK is a 3-foot molded CAT 6 patch cable in black, built for short-run copper connections where cable management matters — jumpering a camera drop to a switch port, connecting an NVR to a wall plate, or patching within a rack where slack needs to stay tight. Molded construction protects the connector-to-jacket transition against flex fatigue, which matters most in racks and enclosures where cables get moved during service calls. At 0.5 lb, it adds negligible weight to a bundled rack harness.
Compatibility
CAT 6 rating supports Gigabit Ethernet and PoE/PoE+ powered devices, so it works as a short jumper for IP cameras, PoE switches, NVRs, wireless access points, and any RJ-45 network gear terminated to CAT 6 or below. Use it where run length is under 3 feet — patch panel to switch, wall plate to device, or switch to switch within the same rack. For longer building runs, use bulk CAT 6 cable or a longer patch length instead of chaining multiple short cables, which adds unnecessary connector junctions and failure points.
Installation Notes
The molded boot is snag-resistant, which keeps it from hanging up on adjacent cables when pulled through a dense rack or a tight enclosure — a real time-saver during moves, adds, and changes. Factory-terminated RJ-45 ends mean no field termination or crimping tools required; it's a plug-and-patch component. Country of origin is China, and it carries a limited warranty against manufacturing defects.
