Belden Inc. 10GXS12006A1000 Cat6a Utp Cmr Riser Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. 10GXS12006A1000 is a Cat6a 4-pair unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) riser-rated (CMR) network cable designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential buildings. Cat6a supports 10-Gigabit Ethernet at frequencies up to 500 MHz, making it a dependable choice for high-bandwidth data runs. The ribbed construction helps maintain pair separation to meet Cat6a alien crosstalk requirements. This cable is sold per foot or per reel depending on order quantity, with a unit of measure of EA. Low-voltage technicians and structured cabling installers are the primary trades working with this product.

This cable is suited for horizontal and vertical backbone runs in commercial office buildings, data centers, schools, and healthcare facilities where a CMR riser rating is required by code. The U/UTP construction keeps the cable diameter manageable for high-density conduit fills. It is appropriate for patch panel terminations, wall plate drops, and equipment room feeds in standard 10GbE network infrastructure builds.

Key Features

• Cat6a rated for 10-Gigabit Ethernet performance up to 500 MHz
• 4-pair U/UTP construction with ribbed separator for alien crosstalk control
• CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) flame rating for vertical runs between floors
• Unshielded design simplifies termination and reduces installation labor
• Suitable for use with standard Cat6a keystone jacks and patch panels

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style structured cabling solution compatible with standard Cat6a termination hardware including keystone jacks, patch panels, and modular plugs that meet TIA-568-C.2-1 Cat6a specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or structured cabling installer in accordance with TIA-568 standards and applicable local codes. Maintain a minimum bend radius and avoid exceeding the cable's pull tension rating during installation to preserve pair geometry and channel performance. De-energize any adjacent circuits before fishing cable through shared pathways. CMR-rated cable is approved for riser applications but is not a substitute for CMP-rated plenum cable in air-handling spaces.
