Belden Inc. C601100014 CAT6 Plus Cmr Patch Cord 14in

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. C601100014 is a CAT6 Plus CMR-rated patch cord in black, designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and light industrial environments. CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable Riser) rating makes this cord compliant for use in riser spaces between floors, where flame-spread characteristics must meet stricter building code requirements. At 14 inches in length, this patch cord is suited for short-run connections in high-density patch panels, server cabinets, and telecom closets where cable management and minimal slack are priorities. Low-voltage cabling technicians and network installers are the primary trades that work with this product.

This patch cord is intended for use in riser-rated structured cabling runs within commercial buildings, data centers, and telecommunications rooms. The CAT6 Plus specification supports high-speed data transmission and is commonly deployed in horizontal cabling and equipment patching applications. The 14-inch length is particularly useful in tight rack environments where longer cords would create unnecessary congestion. It ships as an individual unit and is suitable for both new installations and moves, adds, and changes in existing cabling infrastructure.

Key Features

• CMR riser rating meets NEC requirements for installation in vertical cable runs between floors
• CAT6 Plus performance supports high-speed data networking applications
• 14-inch length designed for short, organized connections in high-density rack and patch panel environments
• Black jacket provides easy color-coded cable management in multi-circuit installations
• Sold individually, one patch cord per unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard patch cord for CAT6 and CAT6 Plus structured cabling systems using RJ45 terminations in commercial and riser-rated installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician in accordance with NEC Article 800 and applicable local codes. Verify that the riser pathway meets CMR requirements before routing. Avoid sharp bends below the minimum bend radius for CAT6 cable, and do not cinch cable ties so tightly that they deform the jacket, as this can degrade signal performance. Confirm all patch panel and switch port connections are fully seated before testing the link.
