Belden Inc. 3613 005A1000 Cat6e Plenum Cable 1000 Ft

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. 3613 005A1000 is a Category 6e, 4-pair, unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) network cable rated for plenum (CMP) installation environments. Sold in a 1000-foot pull box, this cable is designed for structured cabling installations where both high-speed data performance and fire-code compliance are required. The CMP rating means the cable jacket meets strict smoke and flame propagation standards mandated for use in air-handling plenum spaces. Licensed electricians and low-voltage cabling technicians are the primary installers of this product in commercial and light-commercial settings.

This cable is suited for horizontal runs in commercial office buildings, healthcare facilities, educational institutions, and other structures that require plenum-rated cabling per local fire codes. The U/UTP construction supports Category 6e performance for high-bandwidth Ethernet applications including Gigabit and multi-gigabit networks. The ribbed separator maintains pair geometry throughout each run, which helps preserve crosstalk and insertion loss performance over the full 1000-foot reel length.

Key Features

• Category 6e rated for high-bandwidth structured cabling applications
• CMP (plenum) jacket rating meets fire and smoke propagation requirements for air-handling spaces
• 4-pair U/UTP construction with internal rib separator for consistent pair geometry
• 1000-foot continuous reel length minimizes splices in long horizontal runs
• Unshielded design simplifies termination and reduces installation time

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style plenum-rated structured cabling solution compatible with standard Category 6 and Category 6e keystone jacks, patch panels, and modular plugs that conform to TIA-568 termination standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or certified low-voltage cabling technician in compliance with applicable NEC Article 800 requirements for communications wiring. Verify that the plenum CMP rating is required and documented for the specific building space before pulling cable. Avoid sharp bends below the cable minimum bend radius and do not exceed the manufacturer pull-tension rating during installation. Terminate both ends using tooling rated for Cat6 or Cat6e connectors to maintain channel performance.
