Eaton N201-007-BL50BP Cat6 Patch Cable 7 ft 50-Pack

Overview

The Eaton N201-007-BL50BP is a bulk-pack Category 6 (Cat6) unshielded twisted pair (UTP) patch cable set designed for structured cabling deployments. It is used by network engineers and installers to connect switches, patch panels, servers, and end devices within rack-based and horizontal cabling environments. The product addresses high-volume installation requirements where consistent cable length, performance, and termination quality are required.

Each cable in the pack is 7 feet (2.13 m) in length and supports Gigabit Ethernet transmission up to 1 Gbps with bandwidth performance rated to 550 MHz. The cables use 24 AWG stranded copper conductors with four-pair UTP construction, ensuring flexibility and reliable signal integrity. RJ45 male connectors on both ends support standard Ethernet interfaces, while molded snagless boots reduce strain and protect connector tabs during installation and maintenance cycles.

These cables are typically deployed in data center racks, IDF/MDF environments, and enterprise network closets where short-run patching between equipment is required. The 7 ft length is suited for rack-to-rack or intra-rack connections, minimizing excess cable slack while maintaining routing flexibility. The bulk 50-pack format supports standardized builds across multiple racks or sites.

The N201-007-BL50BP integrates into Cat6, Cat5e, and Cat5 network infrastructures and complies with TIA/EIA-568-B.2-1 standards. It supports PoE applications, making it suitable for powering devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points. The PVC CM-rated jacket allows use in general indoor environments with standard cable management systems.

In a practical deployment, these cables are used in a data center rack to connect top-of-rack switches to servers and patch panels. Their uniform length simplifies cable management and labeling, reducing installation time and improving airflow by avoiding excessive cable bundling.

This product is not suitable for long-distance horizontal cabling runs exceeding structured cabling limits, nor for environments requiring shielded cabling (STP) due to high electromagnetic interference. It is also not intended for outdoor or plenum-rated installations where specialized jacket ratings are required.
