Belden Inc. C601100040 Cat6 Plus Cmr Patch Cord 40in Black

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. C601100040 is a Cat6 Plus CMR-rated patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and light industrial environments. Built to exceed standard Cat6 performance specifications, this patch cord supports high-speed data transmission for network infrastructure applications. The CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) rating makes it suitable for vertical runs between floors within a building. At 40 inches in length, it is well suited for short horizontal connections between patch panels, switches, and network equipment. Licensed network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors are the typical installers of this cable type.

This patch cord is intended for use in structured network cabling systems, particularly in data centers, telecommunications rooms, and commercial office environments. It falls within the Cat6 and Cat6E patch cable product family and is used wherever a CMR-rated, black-jacketed patch cord of this length is required for riser applications or general horizontal patch connections at equipment racks and wall outlets.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style Cat6 Plus CMR patch cord compatible with standard RJ45 keystone jacks, patch panels, and network switches in Cat6 and Cat6E structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage cabling contractors or qualified IT infrastructure technicians. De-energize and power down connected network equipment before disturbing active patch connections where possible. Follow TIA-568 structured cabling standards and applicable local building codes for riser cable routing. Avoid sharp bends below the minimum bend radius and do not cinch cable ties so tightly that the jacket deforms, as this can degrade transmission performance.
