Gold-Plated RJ-45 Connectors Ensure Reliable Data Transfer

The Tripp Lite N201-003-RD Cat6 cable features precision-engineered RJ-45 connectors with gold plating for superior conductivity and corrosion resistance. The transparent connector design allows for visual verification of proper pin alignment and connection status, while the red snagless boot provides strain relief and prevents unwanted cable disconnections during installation or maintenance. Engineered with 24 AWG copper conductors and a specialized staggered-pin design, this cable minimizes near-end crosstalk (NEXT) for crystal-clear signal transmission up to 550MHz. The molded strain relief boot and PVC jacket work together to protect the internal wiring while maintaining flexibility for easy routing in tight spaces.
